A much-needed book on how to self-treat extreme tiredness, based on the author's own experience of severe chronic fatigue and her pioneering research to develop a successful treatment programme.
Chronic Fatigue is a common condition that can last for many years. It is a debilitating chronic illness which ruins lives. Every waking moment becomes a physical, emotional and cognitive struggle just to function on the most basic of levels. Dr Kristina Downing-Orr, a clinical psychologist, suffered severe chronic fatigue symptoms and was compelled to research the cause of CFS and cure herself because she was offered so little help by the medical profession. Her recovery was quick and lasting. In her book Kristina reveals the causes of chronic fatigue and offers an accessible, scientifically valid, easy-to-achieve programme that will inspire people with CFS to regain their health and restore their energy and vitality.
Chapters cover Kristina's own story, what chronic fatigue really is, what causes it, diagnosis, a step-by-step self-treatment programme, how to strengthen the body, coping with stress, and resources.
