In my video "What does ME/CFS Feel Like? I left out the very severe, so I wanted to explain that as best I can secondhand based on what I have heard from many others.
That video: • What does ME/CFS feel like?
If you want a first hand window into the very severe experience, I suggest looking at Whitney Defoe's blog here: https://www.whitneydafoe.com/mecfs/
To get an idea of the range or where you might be on it, I recommend the Hummingbird Scale here: https://www.hfme.org/themeabilityscal...
*other things that become unbearable at very severe levels are smells (detergents, soaps, etc.).
Also you can imagine that if your teeth are not brushed regularly (often by a carer) then you get dental issues... and getting to a dentist is a job for an ambulance and causes massive crashing if you can get there at all.
