[quote=Anonymous]Most of what you’re describing sounds linked to the core issue of constant fatigue. Being constantly exhausted is a reason why you’d never shower and put yourself together. There can be many causes for fatigue and she shouldn’t accept a chronic fatigue diagnosis without ruling other things (like sleep apnea) out. Sleep apnea treatment can be like flipping a switch for many people. That said, there’s not much you can do if she is not confiding in you or asking for advice. She has to want to seek help. Setting up and attending appointments can be exhausting, though, in a way normal people would not understand. I would try to be supportive and let all of this go so she knows she is not judged. See her for the better parts of her personality, the fun part, so she feels understood. If she remarks about her fatigue you can offer help like booking appointments, attending with her, or asking around for good providers. [/quote]
