A member asked:

I am an 18 year old guy and think i've developed chronic fatigue syndrome. what can i do?

Get this confirmed: You could have anemia, hypothyroidism, be developing mononucleosis, a sleep disorder, or even depression. See your doctor and get checked out. 18 year olds should not have chronic fatigue syndrome.
