Do organic vegan lentil chips count?

They have to assert that we are pathetic incompetent wretches who fall apart at the first whiff of difficulties in life, and maybe even malingerers and frauds as well. Otherwise their 'model' doesn't work from the start.

In contrast, there was no significant association between full acceptance by patients and their recovery. So the point of trying to 'change patients somatic perceptions' is...? And how did they measure 'recovery'?

It isn't even randomised. What a farce.

Which is why we need some means of distinguishing between the two. Like PEM 2-day testing.
