Welcome to Chronic Fatigue Companion!

I'm Holly Campbell, the founder of Chronic Fatigue Companion, and I am in remission from ME/CFS after 12 long years.

I can't take away the illness, but I can teach you to rebuild your life around the symptom of 'chronic fatigue' that arises from long term chronic conditions like ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia and Long Covid.

You can live alongside chronic fatigue and create a meaningful, happy and fulfilling life whilst your body heals.

"Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says, 'I'll try again tomorrow'"

- Mary Anne Radmacher

The best way I can help you is with PACING!

What is 'pacing'? Also known as energy management...

When we use energy and 'do too much', we can inadvertently cause post-exertional malaise (PEM); flu-like symptoms and increased fatigue. It can take us a loooong time to get back to where we were.

Pacing is spending and saving your energy to maximum effect.

At first, it will create stability and get you out of those awful (even traumatic) flare ups and relapses. Then it will build your resilience, giving you confidence in what you can manage without causing a worsening of symptoms. And best of all, you can then use that energy to do things that matter to you.

In short... Pacing will improve your life!

But pacing is a way of life. It's a totally different way of doing things, so you need a complete, holistic approach that helps you choose pacing every day. That means learning to manage boredom, restlessness, grief and loneliness. And being kind to yourself throughout. What better way to be taught pacing than by someone who can wrap it up in the compassion and understanding you only get from living it?

For me, your recovery is personal

I had severe ME/CFS for about 12 years in total: years confined to a wheelchair, unable to lift my head from the pillow for days, brain fog that left me unable to answer even a single question, clinical depression. Against the odds, I've made a full recovery, hill-running again and leading an active life, and I've devoted my life to helping people who manage the symptom of chronic fatigue.
