For me not trying anything is giving myself the best shot at getting better. Even the anecdotal stories I hear about something which helps are sometimes followed a few months later with a report of how it stopped working, as the ME body seems to readjust to the level of shitiness it wants to be...
And Bristol or anybody else couldn't be bothered to contact the journals for copies of the correspondence? If it was really sent the journals will have copies, not everyone loses stuff or has a convenient team of gremlins on standby. I doubt that the journals would be able to find any...
Rather than hoping that the police may charge people with wasting their time and send them a bill for the man hours wasted policing their events, we should also bear in mind that they may enthusiastically side with the BPS brigade and get up to this sort of behaviour...
Claims of being bullied or harassed rarely seem to be subjected to scrutiny, the instinctive reaction of most decent people is to jump to the defence of the victim without it occurring to them that they have just been lied to. Who would believe that there are people who behave like that...

And notes that there is a waiting list of 8000 long-covid patients queuing up to pay Dr Jaeger 3,000 euros a go to have...
Maybe they're too tired and their carers are too busy, which is the same reason why ME advocacy was so ineffective for decades. Liking tweets isn't going to get anyone anywhere, but that's about all many sufferers have the energy for.
Unless the presentation included the sentence "It used to be thought in some quarters that personality type was relevant, but that just turned out to be a load of ill-informed pseudoscientific abusive piffle", I really don't know what it's doing on the slide.
I'm afraid if it makes it to the pages of the Daily Mail, the answer is yes. Plenty of people believe what they read in the DM and use it to form their opinions accordingly.
Beans.
Who defined "health workers' mental health" as the problem? Surely anyone concerned about the NHS should be looking at structural issues?
