I think it's an especially dangerous article for the newly ill to read, they need to be told to rest as much as possible rather than given a pep talk about attitude and getting up every day no matter what.

I think there's an unmentioned elephant in that jungle.

I got my diagnosis from the university hospital in Berlin, I had to wait 9 months for an appointment and do a whole load of exclusionary tests with a local GP before I was even allowed to go. Now that they don't see patients from outside Berlin, I don't know where I'd get a diagnosis from. I...

I can't turn on him because I never swore undying loyalty to his fan team in the first place. Just commenting on the agreed statement of facts, his level of organisation sounds absolutely appalling, which is disrespectful towards his clients and colleagues, and can have real, serious negative...

Don't know much about Hyde, but reading that list of agreed facts he sounds shockingly disorganized.

I can watch the official video with the main segment in Germany no problem.

Thank you. I'm hoping that when I'm well enough, @Jonathan Edwards will join me on a tour of northern working mens' clubs to perform our "Snow White" sketch: https://www.s4me.info/threads/david-bell-about-slow-sepsis-in-me.1900/#post-33289

When I have PEM (not for a while now thankfully) I move my head instead of my eyes. Never really thought about why, I suppose it must be because moving my eyes becomes more effort than moving my head.

Ben Goldacre's words have been quoted back to him many times, his hypocrisy (in not calling out his mentor Simon Wessely's defence of the PACE trial) is evident, but unfortunately no-one's interested. I'd be interested in your opinion of Gerd Gigerenzer's view (in his book "Risk Savvy") - he...

First half of this short podcast is a take on mice in scientific studies: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07kv9ns

Funny you should say that, I think setting up McPsych is the overall plan.

Written by someone with pronounced stupidity that they devote a lot of time and intelligence dealing with. I am emotionally aware enough to realise that I need to stop reading this "study" after the first sentence.

Hi @NeilH, thank you for joining the forum and welcome :). I accept that your article was a personal account, and I agree with a lot of the very good points you make, about pacing, acceptance of your new life, and avoiding quackery and nonsense. I have read the whole article and don't mean to...
