Possible Complications
Like other chronic diseases, it is not uncommon for people with chronic fatigue syndrome to have mental issues, such as anxiety, stress, or depression. Though it is not a psychological problem, the symptoms are debilitating. It is almost impossible to know when the symptoms will show up. This can significantly affect your personal and work life. Over time, many people with chronic fatigue syndrome can even feel hopeless or demoralized.
It is usually to experience low periods when you are trying to adjust to the imposed changes by the condition. However, these might develop into severe depression at some point. It is necessary to inform your doctor to get proper treatment for anxiety and depression. Though this will not cure your condition, it might be helpful and improve your life. [10]
