"They would pull up their computer and be like, 'Chronic fatigue syndrome.' Or, 'Why don't you try to get out of bed, Avril, and just go play the piano?' It's like, 'Are you depressed? This is what they do to a lot of people who have Lyme disease. They don't have an answer for them so they tell them, like, 'You're crazy," the singer said.

Avril had spoken to a renowned magazine early this year about her complications. She is quoted to have said, "I felt like I couldn't breathe, I couldn't talk and I couldn't move. I thought I was dying. There were definitely times I couldn't shower for a full week because I could barely stand. It felt like having all your life sucked out of you."
