It is bizarre just how backwards they have it. After four decades of watching it in action it still takes my breath away.
Kinda seems relevant for a condition they have declared a 'fatigue' disorder.
CBT requires the assumption that the therapist has some grand sweeping view of and insight into the entire human condition, a neutral place from which to objectively judge whether any given thought or claim is reasonable or not, without having to properly test it.
I have never met anybody who...
What patients need is not detailed planning and micro-management. They need the flexibility to adjust their activity pattern as required. Which is pretty much the complete opposite of planning and schedules, etc.
Indeed. I had forgotten about that rhetorical sleight of hand from PACE.
I agree...
We do not know the cause of ME/CFS, but our fatigue service can address the factors that cause fatigue symptoms to persist and reduce their impact on everyday life.
A slippery game with words there. Sliding casually from we don't know the cause of ME/CFS, into we know the factors perpetuating...
Naughty @Trish and her selective citing. She 'forgot' these critical papers:

and, of course, the classic seminal study from Wonky, Shyster, and Nothingtoseehere:

It's psych! It's not psych!
Too late, Sir Simon Says. This is the drearily predictable fruits of your decades of reckless unrestrained psychopathophilia. From day one you were spreading the psych gospel way too hard, way too early, way ahead of any robust evidence, installing this crap in every...
The Goldilocks Theory of Managing ME. Requiring, of course, the help of an expensive expert to guide you down the Healthy Path of Moderation.
If I could get these 'experts' to understand just one thing it would not be the direct experience of the disease itself, it would be just how...
Me too.
I think the forum should consider formally requesting AfME that the S4ME reference is either withdrawn, or rewritten to accurately reflect the forum's position on that booklet.
It is crystal clear that nothing is going to change while those responsible for creating the catastrophe are allowed to remain in charge. Which is apparently what is going to happen.
It is just tweaking the marketing, and not even very much. This shit could have been written 2 decades ago, and...
'for those who choose to increase their activity'
They are perpetuating the dishonest, cruel, and gutless psycho-drama morality-play framing. They know what they are doing.
The included studies were very different and therefore we judged that it was not meaningful to make comparisons of reported efficacy results, or to assess the reliability of those results
WTF? Especially the reliability issue. That is the whole damn problem: not using sufficiently robust...
Prevalence of orthorexia varies across countries and populations, ranging from 6.9% in the Italian population to 88.7% in Brazil,
88.7%
That number is very difficult to take seriously. o_O
