In order to cure or at least alleviate chronic fatigue, it is important to change lifestyle habits and eat healthier, engage in physical activity that relaxes us, go to bed earlier, and the like.
That it's time for a change, the following five symptoms of chronic fatigue that you should not ignore will show you:
1. You can't fall asleep or wake up at night
About 80 percent of people who suffer from chronic fatigue have problems sleeping. This can manifest as an inability to fall asleep, and when we finally fall asleep, it is often interrupted, that is, we wake up very easily in the middle of the night.
2. You have difficulty concentrating
People assume that the only symptom of chronic fatigue is a constant feeling of tiredness, but there are other signs such as increased forgetfulness, difficulty concentrating, and the frequent occurrence of other things easily distracting us from what we are doing.
3. You feel exhausted after every activity
If your body or mind is exposed to the slightest strain, you feel completely exhausted.
4. It is difficult for you to stand on your feet
For people suffering from chronic fatigue, even standing can be difficult. Moreover, the symptoms of chronic fatigue can become much more pronounced when standing than when lying down, writes Zpodjena. Experts believe that people with chronic fatigue syndrome experience a condition called orthostatic intolerance, in which blood flow to the brain decreases when standing upright.
5. You feel pain all over your body
Recurring headaches, joint pain, muscle pain, and even a sore throat that won't go away can be signs of chronic fatigue. Often there is no redness or swelling - the person just feels pain that can spread deep into the muscles and joints.
