Chronic Fatigue or Anxiety Depression
For the last 10 years I am facing issues of terrible morning fatigue with lightheadedness and vomitting feeling after breakfast specially. Fatigue lasts til late afternoon 4 pm palpitations in body also extreme nausea with tight throat left side and mild stomach pain low mood with anxiety also brain fog vomitting sensation wih faint feeling and something bad to happen with unclear thoughts facing problem with working in daytime and decision making. Mood keeps changing all time with neck tightness and headache and vomitting feeling.I have taken antidepressants on and off. But I haven't felt 100% better on them. I am confused whether it is some hidden chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms or is it a real depression or anxiety problem. I admit iam a little stressed as well. Everyone is stressed in todays But I don't think little stress will cause so many problems. Pls help what should be my next course of action whom should I consult.

1.Use Deep Breathing Deep breathing is another effective way to relieve stress and anxiety. It helps you with physical symptoms such as shallow breathing and rapid heart rate, and it also helps with controlling your thoughts. When you practice deep breathing, you're forced to take your thoughts off of whatever is causing you anxiety and to focus on the breathing technique that you are using. 2.Keep A Journal Journaling can be an effective way to deal with your anxiety and to find relief. It helps you to take all of the things that are rolling around in your head and get them out of your head and down on paper. Sometimes seeing the things that we're worried about on paper can help us to see that they're not as big of a deal as we thought they were. It can also help us to find solutions that we have been overlooking. 3.Hang Out With Friends If you're struggling with anxiety, sometimes the last thing that you want to do is go hang out with your friends. Even if it's an activity that you enjoy with people that you like, the thought of it can be stressful. Your brain already feels overwhelmed with things that you feel you need to figure out, and it can seem like a bad use of time to do something fun. 4. Exercise, Find What Works For You : You might be tired of hearing about how great exercise is for your health. But, the reason you hear about it so much is that there's no way around it. Exercise it's good for both your physical body and for your mind.Getting regular exercise has been proven to help you sleep better at night, clear your head, and boost your mood. It's a great way to use up all that pent-up energy that you have in a way that's going to benefit you in multiple areas of your life.

Your symptoms are more indicative of a depressive disorder then CFS or fibromyalgia. There can be multiple factors contributing to the condition. You will need to rule out physical causes like hypothyroidism, Vitamin deficiencies or other hormonal imbalances. After that a detailed history and examination will help in diagnosis and better management. Only antidepressants are not a solution but both therapy and medication can help.
Next Steps
consult a psychiatrist to establish diagnosis
