Has anyone been diagnosed with it?

My friend Matt has it. He is just one big issue though. I think he is actually a hypochondriac (sp-I think I fucked it up).

I have insomnia...I think I like my disorder the best.

I had it in high school. Very nasty thing. I'm lucky I graduated, I was lucky to make it through one day a week.

chronic fatigue syndrome is over diagnosed.
its a catch all that doctors give to people who are basically depressed, and would be offended by a doctor recommending anti depressants.

I don't believe in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Most people I've known who've been given a CFS diagnosis usually had other things going on: drug addition/addiction recovery, chemical imbalance, poor nutrition, poor exercise habits,lack of realistic perspective about themselves or the world, lack of a spiritual connection to things. I'm not talking religion here; I'm talking about an appreciative approach to events and cycles around us. An involvement or enjoyment of the world or that which appeals to us.

Similar feelings about Candida. Let's face it; if yeast were really colonizing our blood streams, our internal organs, our nervous system, we'd be DEAD. Yeast lives outside the body, with the exception of the mouth, butt, vagina, entrance to the internal part of the penis. The claim that candida sets in after a bout with mono or similar debilitating illness it too complicated. Let's think Occam's Razor here. A debilitating illness is, well, debilitating. A learned behavior can set in afterwards (one learns to "feel ill"), or possible long-term damage may be done to the system. Who knows. I'm hardly an expert on mono.

But these damned doctors (sorry to the premeds out there and similar professions) have us up in arms, paranoid about this and that. We rely on their opinions overmuch; we eat what they tell us to eat, no matter how ridiculous it may sound (less than 2000 calories or only 30 grams of fat a day? puullleeeassee...I need much more food than that to make it through my hectic schedule, and to keep up with my dogs). We come to see them for our regularly scheduled visits, and we pay our regularly scheduled bills to them. They make their regularly scheduled car and house payments, and everything seems hunkydory.

Let's take a step back and imagine that we're the experts on our bodies. That we actually pay attention to how certain types of exercise, eating habits, sleeping schedules feel to us. Let's reinvolve ourselves with our lives, stop raging against the world for being unfair, take some time to do the things we enjoy, learn to enjoy as many other things as possible, and reconnect. We'd need much less specialized or general care, I imagine. I imagine we'd also be a hell of a lot happier and healthier in general. To create an overly elaborate explanation as to why one feels sick is a waste of time, money, and care.

Call me a cheesehead or a pollyanna if you must.

bunkum: very true.

you know, it's only recently (the past 100 years or so) that people have been obsessed over their health. it's become a highly marketable area. everything is wrong with you- take this to make it better! everything has it's own title now- chronic depression, chronice fatigue, attention deficit disorder. hell, no one is born "healthy" anymore. whatever happened to just being depressed? or being hyper? no matter where you go, everytime you turn around, they're saying something else is bad for you to eat, drink, smoke, wear, etc. basically, living kills you.

which is exactly what is supposed to happen.
