“…This result implies that the more severe a patient's fatigue is, the more probable it is that specific fatigue related relationship themes emerge. This overall result is in line with other authors' observations that interpersonal problems are covariant with severity of fatigue (Goetz et al , 2005; Taerk & Gnam, 1994). We observed that the correlation between self‐reported chronic fatigue and clinically rated fatigue was moderate.…”

“…With respect to current interpersonal functioning, less information has been collected. In a study on psychogenic fatigue, Goetz and colleagues (2005) observed that, compared to patients with a somatic disorder and fatigue, psychogenic fatigue patients have more interpersonal problems. However, the nature of the interpersonal problems, and the characteristic way these patients relate to others, were not explored in that study.…”

“…Research into the interpersonal problems of CFS patients is scarce. However, previous studies suggest that interpersonal difficulties may be typical of patients with this condition (Goetz et al , 2005; Vandenbergen, Vanheule, Rosseel, Desmet, & Verhaeghe, 2008). This is also the case for patients with a chronic cardiovascular or auto‐immune disease (Lacaille, White, Backman, & Gignac, 2007), yet the cause of this relation is not clear.…”

Interpersonal problems in alexithymia: A study in three primary care groups

et al. 2010

Alexithymia and interpersonal problems should be considered together, in terms of one deficient affect regulatory system, and the relation between alexithymia and specific illness conditions is secondary to this. Clinical assessment of patients with problems in naming and discussing affective states should never be isolated from an examination of their interpersonal problems, and vice versa. Mentalization-based therapy is recommended for patients with problems in naming affective states, interpersonal problems, and concomitant CFS or other alexithymia-related diseases.
