My pem feels like withdrawal not the flu

Tremors, buzzing, noise and light sensitive, anxiety, insomnia. It feels like GABAergic withdrawal which I have been through many times, but no GABAergics as of late. It’s very difficult to relax. At the beginning of this crash I couldn’t sleep, now I am sleeping a lot. Is this a good sign? Sorry for all my post, I am truly new to this disease and don’t understand it.

Finally resting to break rolling PEM but the depression is horrible

Hi everyone. I got mono 6-7 months ago and I believe I had a very mild case of cfs. I was resting a ton until I stopped. I am a GHB addict and GHB completely covers up PEM for me. So do withdrawals. When I stopped GHB and the withdrawals stopped, I noticed severe cfs symptoms. I have been in a state of rolling PEM because I have been not resting. Finally I decided to start resting. I’m laying here in the dark all day. But boredom and darkness are my number one depression triggers. my current PEM symptoms are sore throat, full body buzzing, light and noise sensitivity, tinnitus. Previously I had insomnia but I’m starting to sleep again. I would like my boyfriend to come over to help with the depression. Would this be too much for my body? I have NO idea my baseline. I am freaking out. Can’t stop crying. Advice, please guys. I’m so scared. Completely new to this disease.
