as long as this sort of stuff is peddled, asking for more ME/CFS services is maybe asking for more of the same(?)

this has been removed from the website but who knows if its still used for their group therapy?

the website as a whole has been 'updated' apparently.

but
Chalder is still recommended reading
https://www.southtees.nhs.uk/servic...hronic-fatigue-syndrome-me/patient-resources/

but there is at least a link to the new guidelines under Information for GPs. So why not under patient info?

South Tees Hospitals NHS still links to this:
https://www.nbt.nhs.uk/sites/default/files/British Association for CFS ME - Therapy and Symptom Management in CFS ME.pdf

Guidance for therapists covering the provision of therapy for CFS/ME. This includes a
list of resources (available on the website BACME.info) for use in therapy, as well as
guidance on support and supervision.
It does not replace specialist CBT and GET training (recommended by NICE and available at
www.PACEtrial.org). It represents
pragmatic recommendations from experienced clinicians to guide practice when
seeing adults with CFS/ME, where specialist CFS/ME CBT and GET therapists
are not available/appropriate.
It is informed by these approaches.

(I haven't checked to see which others also still have this link.)

Chronic fatigue syndrome
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), sometimes known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), is a long term health condition that affects approximately 1,500 people across Teesside.
Will I get better?
Many people with CFS/ME live positive and fulfilling lives. How well individuals progress depends on many factors, eg, how able they are to make changes to their behaviours, age, financial demands, family responsibilities, severity of symptoms, emotional resilience, and the presence of other health conditions.

CFS/ME is a long term health condition and whilst some individuals are able to return to everyday activities, they will remain vulnerable to setbacks and relapses. Therefore individuals will need to continue implementing management strategies and be mindful of symptoms.

More information on the condition can be found at:
