Hello dear reader! Today I have to talk to you about a topic that probably feels close to you: chronic fatigue syndrome, also known as asthenia.
Yes, that fatigue that sometimes seems unbreakable, even if you went to sleep before Cinderella did after the ball.
What is chronic fatigue?
It goes beyond just saying "I'm tired". Astenia is a persistent and overwhelming fatigue that doesn't improve with rest.
Imagine waking up after a full night's sleep and still feeling like a truck ran over you.
Unlike muscle weakness, it's not that your muscles can't work, it's that you don't even have the energy to think about it.
How does it manifest?
Let's paint a quick picture: you feel exhausted, muscle and joint pains, headaches, and even difficulties concentrating. Does this resonate with you? You could be dealing with asthenia. This syndrome doesn't discriminate: it affects both young and old, although it's more common in women aged 20 to 50.
You might wonder, "Where does all this fatigue come from?" It has many faces and clever disguises.
It could be due to stress, lack of sleep, an exhausting job, but it could also be saying, hey, there's a more serious health issue here!
What causes it?
The causes of asthenia are multiple and varied. Our dear body may be sending warning signals of problems like depression, anemia, heart issues, or even infections like hepatitis. To make matters worse, some medications we take could be conspiring against our energy.
Now, think about the COVID-19 pandemic. Many people who have had this disease are still struggling with extreme fatigue. It is believed that the muscle inflammation caused by the virus could be the reason.

What can I do?
If your body keeps telling you "I need a pit stop", don't ignore it. Come on, no one wants to feel like an exhausted robot all the time. The most sensible thing to do is to see a doctor for a proper evaluation. Do you think it's an exaggeration? Think twice. An early diagnosis can change the game.
Reflection question: Do you feel that your fatigue is more than just the usual wear and tear of daily life? If the answer is yes, it's time to take action.
Treatments and recommendations
Unfortunately, there is no magic potion that cures chronic fatigue. But take a deep breath, there are strategies to improve quality of life. Moderate exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco are key.
Some medications can help, but each case is unique and a personalized plan is best.
And one last tip for reflection: listen to your body and, when it asks for rest, give it rest. There is no better advice than that.
So, dear reader, now that you know a bit more about chronic fatigue, pay attention to those signals your body sends you.
Your health and your energy will thank you for it!
