Solving stress

It seems like most people with CFS are reluctant to believe that stress can be a factor in causing CFS - even I was reluctant to believe it, until I visited a psych.

The psych has helped me work on my anxiety, which he says was brought on by lots of stress and family deaths. Sessions with him revealed some great results: my energy levels have improved.

Even though it's clear from my normal doctor's work that my CFS has a biological cause, I think it's safe to say that there was an emotional factor as well - it's all linked, anyway.

Either way, I was open to what the psych had to say, and I think that's the key to getting past this CFS. Being stubborn won't get me anywhere.
