    ME/CFS services in the United Kingdom

    The way the second sentence is worded is so problematic... It implies that you are either pathologically devoted to others or lying. Tails we win, heads you lose. Apart from being deshonest, and patronising, it is also revealing about their hubris. They can't be wrong. They can't imagine...

    Go to hell, Justine, you and your pseudo hypocritical compassion, that makes people feel guilty when they are yet suffering so much. Namaste my ass. Sorry but people like her drives me mad.

    The prevalence and treatment of health anxiety in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) - Jo Daniels 2018

    So they eliminated people with no anxiety from their cohort, and then said that people in the cohort had unusual levels of anxiety? Am I missing something? Edit: So it seems the 4% are those who scored >18 on the SHAI, not a selected cohort inside that group. My bad.

    PPS new name for MUS - Integrated Care for People with Persistent Physical Symptoms 02/10/2018

    There's also researchers' ego at play. Deary favors PPS, and he pushes for its use, Per Fink has his Bodily distress disorder (or something approaching), Jon Stone states that "functional" is the best term, because it is more accepted by patients, John Sarno called unexplained pain TMS (Tension...

    The Guardian's Science Weekly podcast - 2 November 2018 - What role should the public play in science?

    My bad... I'm not sure they try. I remember Wessely (Well, I think it was Wessely) saying that we just refused to accept the stigma associated with mental health as if it should be something to be accepted.

    The Guardian's Science Weekly podcast - 2 November 2018 - What role should the public play in science?

    Yes, but it's the usual tactic, they keep repeating the prejudices around psychiatry saying "some people say...", but I've never seen any of the BPS crowd fighting these prejudices, but spreading them without criticising them. That's like Wessely saying that some doctors dislike us, without...

    The Guardian's Science Weekly podcast - 2 November 2018 - What role should the public play in science?
