In an earlier thread, I detailed how reactivated cytomegalovirus has been linked to several mental health symptoms, including anxiety, depression, bipolar and psychosis. That thread also mentions how natural killer (NK) cell functioning is considered important in keeping cytomegalovirus...

There seem to be several studies (see below) linking cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection with mental health symptoms such as anxiety, depression, bipolar and psychosis. The first study below shows that it is only in cases of high cytomegalovirus antibody titres that anxiety and depression may...

A 2024 study found that SARS-CoV-2 is able to infect dopaminergic neurons, triggering an inflammatory and cellular senescence response. Such an infection in the brain's dopamine neurons may potentially explain long COVID symptoms such as brain fog and depression, an article about the study...

I have mild cfs, for 15 years now. Past lyme, Candida or latent EBV (i have high EBV igg, arround 200), may be the probable causes. I also test positive for genetic test HLA-5. (but I dont have any Beçet symptoms) I just started colchicine 0,5mg daily, I feel less fatigued these days but my...

I wrote this before I was really far into me/cfs but it deals with emptiness , issues with faith, and depression that are relevant to many people's lives. I am proud of the writing, and think the photography is excellent... I know I should be humble, but I'm humble when it is accurate, like...

Hi all, I have read a few of you have experienced depression whilst using niacin. Online there is no information of this whatsoever. I wanted to hear any encouraging words of advice that may have helped some of you come out of this as I'm really struggling. I'm worried its permanent. Please no...

I recently noticed something very interesting. I suffer from dry eye symptoms. I noticed that my dry eye symptoms correlate a lot with my fatigue and low mood. When my fatigue and mood is better my eyes feel better, if my feel dry I often feel tired and my mood is low. I'm not really sure what...

I’ve noticed that my mood drops when I’m upright (sitting, standing, doing chores) long enough. I get irritable, anxious and depressed, but when I lie down my mood gets better quickly. I wonder if it has to do with OI and decreased blood flow to the brain. Do you guys experience this symptom? I...

Today is a lost day for me due to crashing - one of my worst. I feel so systemically bad and brain fogged, with depression, all so bad that I’d have to have a twin to feel worse! Apparently this is due to a 3 hour, 50 mile driving round trip for a doctor’s appointment, along with about a mile...
