Fatigue book...can’t stay awake to read it!! Ha ha!

[Sara_A]

I was recently recommended this book as I struggle with fatigue quite badly. It’s arrived and after 10 pages I can barely stay awake to read it!

This isn’t gonna work!

I used to enjoy reading in bed but also fall asleep doing it.

I would find that I couldn't remember what I last read & would go back a couple of pages to recap. End up falling asleep again. Never progressed!

Good luck trying to read it. I totally understand what you are saying! I buy books and look at their covers too. I find extreme fatigue doesn't give you the energy to even hold a book or take in any information. What did you think of the first 10 pages? I am always looking for ways to improve chronic fatigue too.

Ha not sure can’t really remember!!

I’m terrible with books I love reading but I can’t remember the blinking storyline so end up having to look back!

Also I have to put a tick in the front of all my books as cannot remember if I’ve already read them. I sometimes get to the end of a book and think ooh I think I’ve read this. I do this with tv too I’ll be watching something and my partner will walk in and say ‘You’ve seen this episode!!’

I cannot remember any storylines etc I’m useless and I’m on 39!!

On a serious note I will let u know! I will have another attempt!

Thank you so much. I totally understand. I got to the end of a film recently before realising that I had seen it. My son doesn't understand why I have books as he says they just sit there! I would love a magic wand to lift this debilitating fatigue!
