  • Think for me is doing too much-problem is most things are too much! I feel i have ideas about setting up music equipment differently,time i do am exhausted,think thru mental exhaustion(NHS would say it's depression). Doing things physically been useless for years,but have comorbid things like brain/head injury symptoms/Cushings Disease-so not sure of cause. Used to be less fatigued tho,so is something getting worse.
