Post-Exertional Malaise Overview
This is so very real and right now worse than ever. Change my bed and it will take a few days to get over it. Go for groceries and between the worsened pain and the malaise I am out again for days. I can’t clean my apartment. It just sucks the life out of you.

I don’t have fibro but I can attest to my depressions rendering me useless for days if I have a high functioning day. We went to town today, 9 different stops, and I am just tapped out and may be for days.
People think it’s being antisocial or lazy but it really drains me and I can only fight through so much before I just..hit the proverbial wall and need to retreat.

I don’t know how much I can say is Fibro or how much has to do with depression, but either way it renders me useless for days. The intense pain doesn’t help either.
