Disorder
may be cause
of students’
exhaustion
By Crystee Nichols
Staff writer
College students often find them
selves overwhelmed with exhaustion,
unable to stay awake in class and tired
from simply walking around campus.
The symptoms may not sound
unusual, but in severe cases these stu
dents may be battling with a disorder
known as neurasthenia, more com
monly known as chronic fatigue dis
order.
Chronic fatigue is the seventh
most common symptom in primary
care practice. Fatigue results in more
than 10 million patient visits each
year in the United States, according to
the University Health Center.
“Eleven percent of all Americans
have it,” said Mary Moeller, a nurse
and speaker from Missouri who suf
fers from chronic fatigue. “I’m sure
it’s much more than that, but so many
people don’t go to the doctor.”
Moeller considers herself an
expert on chronic fatigue after years
of dealing with the disorder. She now
holds seminars to show people the
problem exists and to suggest
changes.
iamiiy practice study in
Colorado indicated that people ages
15-34 are frequent sufferers, and
women outnumber men 2-to-1 in fre
quency.
Moeller said more college stu
dents are having problems with the
disorder than in the past. Poor diet is
the top cause;*sbe said, and eating bet
ter and exercising are simple cures.
“The only way I could continue
going is by exercise, but it hurt so
much I had to force myself,” she said.
Chronic fatigue disorder causes
its sufferers undue fatigue even dur
ing the slightest physical or mental
tasks.
“It even hurt to lift my"eyelids,”
Moeller said. “Every movement
hurts. You’re so tired and so exhaust
ed, it is hard to express it in words.”
Some symptoms include: mild
fever or chills, sore throat, overall
muscle weakness, headaches and
sleep disturbances.
“It shows up in a variety of differ
ent ways,” said Carol Asb, a
University Health Center promotions
specialist.
Moeller will be holding a seminar
on chronic fatigue disorder in Lincoln
on Saturday at the Ramada Limited
South Hotel, formerly known as the
Harvester, 1511 Centerpark Road.
