I've assumed I have a type of CFS or Fibro but my condition seems to be mainly in my brain but definitely feels like my body.
My condition I can feel wildly different from one day to the next. Yesterday I woke feeling like death but today I feel almost normal. Usually, but not always, I can tell how good of a day I will have about 1 hour after waking up.
I've even had days where I feel good then a few hours later feel awful. I've felt awful then took 1/4 of a .5 klonopin and within 15 minutes felt almost normal. Same with theanine and licorice on a couple of occasions.
Bascially my condition has been very dynamic. I've become very suspect to food intolerance.
Does this sounds like Depression to any of those who know what it feels like or a biological (glands/etc) condition?

Can't help I'm afraid shawn, but can't wait to see what replies you get as thats me to a tee too! Well it was but over the past year or so I just feel crap more often than not.
Interesting your remark about knowing what kind of day you would have within an hour of waking up. People wouldnt believe me when I used to tell them that.

TJ,
Here are come possibilities based on the irregularity. I've considered MVPS but don't have the palps.
Someone with Fibro

"One minute you may feel great the next your in bed for a week unable to move. You get better after a few months and feel that you are getting back into the swing of things. Then next you are in bed for another week. You feel great one day and do too much. You spend the next 4 months suffering because of this. "

"I don't think there is a person on the board who doesn't feel great one day and the next day, has that feeling of dread and all the full-blown symptoms of MVPS."

"Reference your question at the very beginning - that is the one thing about tmj that is so absolutely strange - how we can feel great one day, or in the morning or whenever, and then feel like crap the next day or later in the after or again, whenever. This is probably the most unique and irritating aspect of tmj there is. "
