How do we get rid of chronic fatigue syndrome?

First of all, you should make an appointment with the doctor to exclude the presence of other diseases. It is also important to pay attention to the exclusion of factors that aggravate the bad situation. According to one theory, chronic fatigue syndrome occurs because a person exhausts themselves so much with mental or physical stress that their body appears to be in constant survival mode. Due to neurosis, the brain cannot relax with the usual types of rest. Another theory is that chronic fatigue syndrome is caused by a virus.

First, the doctor prescribes drug therapy, that is, taking antidepressants, antiviral drugs, vitamins, immunomodulators, homeopathic and anti-inflammatory drugs. The patient is also prescribed physiotherapy: physical therapy, massage, hydrotherapy, acupuncture.

To prevent chronic fatigue syndrome, you need to:

– To walk outside;

– Regular exercise;

— Get rid of bad habits;

– Getting enough sleep;

— Eliminate sources of anxiety (stop communicating with toxic people);

— Limit the time spent on the computer and smartphone;

— Distribute the load rationally throughout the day.

It is worth saying that CFS has many common symptoms characteristic of asthenic syndrome (psychopathic disorder) and anemia (anemia).
