Wow, what a great experience. Dr Gionis is caring and attentive. He took the time to listen to my concern/request and work with me to create a plan.

They really do go above and beyond to help clients. You can do a telehealth visit right over the phone or video call for anxiety meds the very same day. In this day in age, that is major. I was skeptical at first so i called the customer service department to see if it was a legit company and it is.
I paid, set up my appointment, spoke to a doctor and received my medication within a couple of hours.

Online Therapy for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
ME/CFS is not a mental health disorder, but dealing with it requires mental strength.
This is where online chronic fatigue doctors come to the aid.
ME/CFS is often linked with depression, anxiety, stress, insomnia, and other mental and emotional conditions. Here, you will get mental health support and know how to better deal with the new reality changed because of chronic fatigue.
The Best Types of Therapy for Chronic Fatigue Treatment
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive-behavioral therapy for chronic fatigue syndrome is a common choice. It emphasizes thinking, emotional, and behavioral patterns related to living with the CFS symptoms. It also helps to better deal with pain, worry less about the symptoms, and cope with anxiety, depression, or stress. Note that your therapist should have experience working with ME/CFS patients so as not to offer the methods that would increase your symptoms.
Graded Exercise Therapy (GET)
GET is physical therapy for chronic fatigue syndrome. A therapist helps to determine the level of activity that makes the patient feel better. Then, the amount of activity may be increased according to progress in symptoms, growth of energy levels, and willingness to make such changes. Several studies proved GET to be safe and effective. However, it is not suitable for everyone and might be replaced with other treatment methods if there are no positive dynamics.
Since the symptoms may differ, there is no standard first-line chronic fatigue help. Depending on your physical and mental state, the doctor will choose treatment options suitable for your particular situation. These may include medications, counseling, psychotherapy, rehabilitation therapy, personalized adaptive pacing programs, adding nutritional supplements, and others.
Medications for Chronic Fatigue
As there are no FDA-approved chronic fatigue syndrome medications, doctors may recommend over-the-counter and prescription drugs to help one manage their symptoms.
Depression:
Depression is a frequent consequence of chronic fatigue syndrome and can worsen its symptoms. Talk therapy and antidepressants are common treatment options.
Anxiety:
Stress and anxiety aggravate ME/CFS symptoms. To eliminate these secondary conditions, therapy, antidepressants, benzodiazepines, or other drugs can be recommended.
Unreasonable pain:
Muscle and joint pains are treated using over-the-counter pain relievers or stronger prescription drugs.
Insomnia:
A better night’s sleep may result in improved ME/CFS symptoms. This is done by setting up sleep habits and taking over-the-counter or prescription sleeping medications.
Dizziness:
Dizziness because of orthostatic intolerance is treated using medications, such as anticholinergics, antihistamines, etc.
Memory problems:
ADHD medications such as stimulants in low doses may be prescribed to help one deal with memory and concentration troubles.
