Stress can cause physical, emotional and behavioral disorders which can affect your health, vitality, peace-of-mind, as well as personal and professional relationships.
Stress can also be mental: when you worry about money, a loved one’s illness, retirement, or experience an emotionally devastating event, such as the death of a spouse or being fired from work.
However, much of our stress comes from less dramatic everyday responsibilities.

 Unconscious Amygdalar Fear Conditioning in a Subset of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Patients
During the period of stress during the onset of the illness therefore, I hypothesise that the amygdala is activated (in association with many other limbic brain structures), and the amygdala mediates this emotional response, stimulating the "freeze, fight or flight" response via the hypothalamus and other brain pathways.
Negative signals from the viscera, or psychological and physical stress, become conditioned stimuli, and the conditioned response is a chronic sympathetic outpouring from the amygdala via various brain pathways including the hypothalamus.
It is almost as though the mind and body have unconsciously become "allergic" to the visceral and psychological expressions of stress, given that these expressions act as conditioned stimuli for the unconditioned stimulus of being in the throes of a debilitating illness called CFS.
