@Mithriel I agree with your post. WRT the 'research' though I think where people's traits are involved there is the need for a lot more nuance...
To me the real problem is the preconception that happens before any sort of research is done. It's more than just a hypothesis -- it cannot be...
Interesting thoughts. If it was me sending info I would have not sent anything official but simply let her see ME from the perspective of...
Just posting to say . . . I don't trust myself to post on this. Oh wait, I did just leave to wayback archive this. For posterity. And since...
Thanks for making this and the other thread on hospital stay needs Luna. It's good of you to take the time and I'm sure some of us will find it...

Could be. I'm really not at all sure how this will ultimately fall out. I think it might slowly turn out to be a slow burn. There are probably...
Said before but worth saying here and elsewhere again. One common thread among the changes in perception of LC and ME is a person now coming into...
In reading this there is a big problem in what is NOT said. If this research does indicate what they have reported it seems that using the term...
Francesca Steele implicitly shows us a profound problem with the very people she is turning to for help. She herself says (now explicitly) that...
From McMaster University. I see they are trying to take a biological approach. It's hard to quite pin down what they are trying to say here....
Don't want to take thread off topic but don't think starting a new thread is best either. We haven't heard from Hilda recently but she has been...
So, to sum up . . . #nowordswithoutaction
What I am starting to find interesting is that I think I'm starting to see a new pattern in papers. Someone can enlighten me if they have better...
