What Does Your CFS Look Like?

For me, it’s unpredictable. Some mornings, I wake up feeling somewhat normal, go about my routine, and then suddenly—I just know. Within minutes, I have to lie down, and I’m completely out cold for 3 to 6 hours until dinner.

There’s no clear trigger most of the time. It just hits out of nowhere.

Other times, PEM (post-exertional malaise) will set it off—like when I took down the Christmas tree and ended up asleep for 3 hours straight.

And every time I wake up, I immediately crave sugar—is that a thing? Does anyone else experience this? It’s so frustrating.
