I know exactly what is wrong with me. ADHD is not trauma, and my chronic fatigue is caused by airways so narrow that I cannot brestje if I straighten my neck. Even sleeping on a BiPAP, every single of my breaths is flow limited and I wake up(partially, not into wakefulness) because of it at least 7-15 times an hour.
Also, PTSD is the single disorder with the highest rates of underlying physiological risk factors. Even studies only screening for sleep apnea(most younger people present as UARS) find 30-70% prevalence, sleep disorders predict long term outcomes more accurately than the underlying traumatic events, and 2/3 of people do not develop PTSD or CPTSD following trauma.
Most likely, undiagnosed UARS/apnea is present in majority of people with chronic sleep issues, and together with other physiological risk factors(early insulin intolerance, severe gut dysbiosis, thyroid problems, others) makes up the bulk of psychological illness.
The reason why things look purely psychological is because the human mind revolves around spinning narratives explaining both own and other people's experiences in terms of events and decisions.
