No they don't think it's a mental illness. They think it's psychosomatic, ie imaginary, ie not an illness at all.
The brazenness of the lying, the gaslighting, is really something. Cochrane pulled the same thing, absurdly saying that placing 'CFS' under common mental disorders doesn't mean what they obviously mean by that.I hadn't read the Science article that David linked in the above blog post.
This comment in the final paragraph raised an eyebrow —
This was in reference to their follow-up paper, published in <checks notes> The Lancet Psychiatry.
The man has a built in anemoscope ( measures wind direction )and he stressed that their findings are not suggesting that CFS/ME is a mental illness.
Nor is he saying it isn't a mental illness.
Despite characterising it as that for decades.
