This phenomenological study examined the lived experience of persons who suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Research into this condition has to date concentrated on causality and coping strategies and there is limited knowledge of the experiences of sufferers of this condition. In-depth interviews were conducted with five participants who met the criteria for the diagnosis of CFS. The interviews were tape-recorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed, coding for thematic content. 2015-01-03T05:37:20Z 2015-01-03T05:37:20Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11106 eng application/pdf Department of Psychiatry and Mental Health Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
