Today I'd like to thank Squarespace for supporting the channel, and helping me to build my new website

which you'll have to wait until the New Year to take a peek at, because [clears throat] Vlogmas.

It will include my personal blog, recipes, fashion, rants on life,

More on that later, because right now we've got a busy day ahead of us.

Hi, I'm Jessica, and I can't remember ever not being tired.

This might seem strange as a Vlogmas video, but it's actually incredibly apt

Now, a lot of people say that they're getting very tired in the run-up to Christmas

they just can't wait for the break; for the holiday.

But, being tired and having Chronic Fatigue aren't actually the same thing.

Also, Chronic Fatigue is not the same thing as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Also known as ME, or - let's try and say this - [attempts pronunciation]

People with ME generally don't actually like their condition being called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome,

It makes it sound like it's about being tired all the time

when actually it's about having incredible pain

and being unable to sleep when you really, really need to

With a variety of other symptoms, actually. Not just chronic fatigue.

ME has a very long and complicated history.

So, yes, it is characterised by long-term fatigue

but there are many other symptoms, and that's what makes it special

I'm quite iffy on that and I don't like using that term to describe my condition

But this video is just going to be about fatigue and living with fatigue.

But if you would like me to make a video that is about ME - Chronic Fatigue Syndrome -

all this stuff that is happening right here

just specifically about that, then let me know and I'm very happy to do so.

Discuss my experiences with it, et cetera, et cetera, but just to warn you

it will probably drag up some painful history and I will probably cry.

Like, painful memories like that time I was accidentally admitted to a psychiatric ward.

Other than a common symptom of many conditions.

Now, I asked on Twitter if there's anything that you wanted me to say specifically about chronic fatigue

and actually, one of the most asked questions was: How do I know if I have it?

How do I know the difference between chronic fatigue and just generally being tired?

Chronic fatigue is not wanting to be in bed all day.

Although that can be a symptom of depression,

so if you are feeling like that, probably go and get that checked out

It's wanting to both cry and vomit at the same time

because you're so tired, but you're so tired that you can't actually move your body

Sometimes you feel like you can't breathe.

you know that point where you hit the wall?

Boom! The exhaustion and it just...gets you?

Everything is tired. Your bones are tired.

This morning I woke up and my thighs were tired.

It may be persistent, just forever and ever

You may have moments where it - "You may have moments?"

More than moments, hopefully - if you're relapsing,

you may have months where you're absolutely fine-ish.

You're able to go around your daily life and you're not thinking, "Oh, my God, I'm so tired right now."

It's a pretty appropriate video to yawn in.

The thing is, it doesn't--it doesn't get better.

Things that are most affected in your life

I hate that term. I think they just use it in hospitals too much

and I've just sat through way, way too many of those

disability tests that aren't really tests, but they are tests.

It's like a conversation but you know it's actually a test - whatever.

Where they say, you know, what's your personal care needs? And you have to list all your needs.

Basically, it's things like having a leisurely bath
