    Article: "This is why a third of antidepressants are prescribed for something else"

    I have talked about my real opinion of anti depressants on this forum before which led to complaints so i won't get into it again but keep in mind people consider them miracle drugs, and the fact the placebo fares so well means nothing to nobody, they want to believe.

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    Excellent, now he needs to make wild claims and grandiose proclamations and he will gain the support of more thread members and much more funding :laugh: And it would not hurt to publish more of his results since then, might help with the NIH.

    Psychologists Claim ‘Selfitis’ – The Obsessive Need To Post Selfies – Is Now A Mental Disorder

    This is too funny! I've never liked taking selfies, but i think they are reading too far into it Mental disorders are quite fluid, it seems our mental abilities and foibles change every few years, must be some kind of hyper evolution :woot:

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    No worries, i also repeat myself a lot :) I agree that he probably would be retired otherwise, but some people never retire, i know more then a few people who like to stay sharp and are dedicated to what they do. I disagree, the point of publication is to take your data and submit it to a...

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    I'm sorry your offended but i don't think repeated grandiose statements and proclamations makes them special. I completely agree that they should publish, i wrote a long synopsis of my opinion on this (was it here or on the other place, i forget) but their wanting to change the academic system...

    Insomnia.

    Sorry to hear about your issues, sleep disorders are the tool of the devil :devilish: If your sleep issues are ME/CFS related then they can't do much for you except stimulants and sleeping pills. I started my ME/CFS diagnosis journey by going to about a dozen sleep docs, it was not very helpful...

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    As i said i agree that we need to fund many teams, since we don't have a disease mechanism we need to cast a wide net to find it. We also need to cast a wide net to find treatments quickly. But with so little money and peoeple determined to harm us we need to tread as smart as we can. That said...

    I agree but when dealing with very limited funds you achieve the best results by spending them on the best talent

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    I don't agree with this They are taking steps such as getting every FDA approved drug and getting anyone good they can aboard so on. That said i agree we should have many teams working on many fronts, we don't know who will discover something we need but without money progress is glacial if not...

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    This is insane, we struggle to get money for peoeple who are ethical and would do real research to help us, and these shysters get all the money the need and put out junk :emoji_face_palm: Same thing with PACE/smile/LP etc, they seem to have lots of money to also waste, money that could actually...

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    The problem i have with this is that this "discovery" is that my BS detector is flashing like a Christmas tree (fitting at this time of year). Now i'm not wedded to my opinions, if i'm wrong then they can prove themselves but having a history of making grandiose claims and making claims that...

    The Courier Mail: Australian scientists prove CFS is real and have discovered a test for it

    Unfortunately making up nonsense as a way to get money can easily blow up in their and all of our faces :emoji_face_palm: Credibility matters to those who don't peddle in alternative facts, and making grandiose claims can make people take us even less seriously so if this is how they do things i...
