Completely agree. I'm hopeful that if nothing else we could use the fact that the change in guidelines demonstrates that 1. treatments that are...
I'm quoting this out if context here as I know this was meant as the "establishment" point of view & not your opinion @FMMM1. I agree with you -...
Is it though? For example, IAPT seems to be about providing therapists who have the least qualifications as possible. In my own case a...
Isn't this all part of the next stage of the "plan" facilitated by changes to the healthcare service and the likes of Trudge Chalder and...
I can see that might be a confounding factor for some - I used to clench my jaw when concentrating and grind my teeth when angry or asleep. It...
The irony. As Holger and his family have Christian beliefs and faith it amounts to evidence that Holger is delusional. Yet these doctors & the...
Yep, that's where I'm at with this. Rather than just plain old misunderstanding and confusion this has gone beyond the absurd. Surely this has...
Brain fog is the reason most of my posts are as long as they are. Being succinct and brief is extremely difficult. I have an awful lot of...
Apart from my own inability to think straight and getting confused this morning's exercise has highlighted an angle I hadn't thought of before....

And that could backfire badly - Paul Garner being an example. We know the majority of people will recover in time & most of those that will do so...
Laughter ups PEM levels significantly for me. Laughter is a very physical activity, I've found to my cost. I used to go on some retreats and we...
I believe they can. In a relatively good phase I can go for a walk with IM and be fine. We'll chat quietly as we go. Doing the same walk with...
My experience is the opposite. Initially cognitive issues caused me as much trouble as pain. By the time I was diagnosed I was described as...
I think this may well be true for some but is a dangerous assumption for others. Both cognitive exertion and sensory stimulus can trigger worse...
I don't think that's universally the case I'm afraid. I think certain parties are already gearing up the BPS machine for those who fail.to...
I share the concerns raised by others. I know it sounds perverse but I would rather money not be spent at all if it's spend on the wrong thing....
All this talk of individualised treatment makes me wonder. As far as I know - & I may not be right in this - one of the reasons NICE were set up...
