Amen!... I just wrote a nice long response to your wonderful article, and because i hadn't logged in, i lost it.
I basically said a great big YES to all you mentioned.
I drag myself and drag myself and drag myself hoping to get a peek and a feel and a connection with the outside world everyday. my depression comes when i can NOT get out into the world.
Most of us with cfs LOVE/LOVED life, and are only suffering emotionally because we so often cannot be a PART of that big, wonderful world that we always were a part of.
Comparing CFS to depression, then, couldn't be further from the truth!
I use every fiber in my being to rise above the situation. We do develop reactive depression, and WHO WOULDN'T?!...
I have also been thinking about you since my last comment, hoping to get back to you by email, but have been too wiped out.
Again, so helpful to be reminded that I am not as alone as it always feels in experiencing this tough stuff!
