I'm 19(M), started having symptoms of the following about 3.5 months ago after a flu episode:

- excessive sleeping(12+ hours a day)
- extreme fatigue that worsens after physical activities
- extreme brain fog espically in social scenarios

I didn't know post-viral fatigue was a possibility until 2 months into my symptoms, and I've minimized physical activities as much as possible since then and started pacing.

I stopped going to the gym completely.

But I'm still worried about developing full CFS. Am I still in a time range where it's resolvable with the right recovery? Does it matter more what I do now and how I recover? Or is it already determined based on my predispositions?

(Any other tips/advice on how to get rid of this would be appreciated.)
