We cross posted. We agree entirely that the symptom of a lack of energy (fatigue) and the root cause of the fatigue are not precisely the same...
Sorry, but (again) I find these distinctions without differences. If some mechanism in the body interferes with our energy production (which is...
I don't mean to seem obstreperous, but that does not comport with my experience of ME/CFS related fatigue for the past 34 years. Fatigue is the...
OK. I can totally relate to the examples; however, (in my case at least) my body gives me pretty clear warning signs that tell me I will soon pay...
You haven't explained the distinction in a way that makes sense to me. Just being honest. Is the measure of "metabolically derived energy"...
I guess I'm not following. If I'm personally feeling okay (not feeling fatigued or lacking in energy) and have things that I want/need to get...
How would a person be able to measure "metabolically derived energy" other than through the sensation of fatigue (or the lack thereof)? To me, it...
Fatigue with PEM has certainly been the main expression of my illness over the past 34 years. And the PEM "crashes" mainly involve profound...
Acting out of fury is bad for people with ME, it is also bad for the people who have to be around those furious people, and it is the surest way...
I had to go to some trouble to get "organic" beds here in California as at the time we purchased new ones (about 10 years back) my state had...
Great Album. I also have the Live Rust album that (in the main) comes from the show I attended. I always wonder--despite having a pretty...
The worst concert hearing-damage I ever did was at (of all things) a Neil Young "Rust Never Sleeps" concert at the Cow Palace in San Francisco in...
I feel a similar regret in my use of the term ass-hat, as it reflected a frustration with some behaviors I consider either cruel or over-the-top...
David, before exiting the conversation let me say I appreciate your work in exposing the scientific deficiencies of PACE, GET/CBT and the BPS...
That really is a terrific video. Thanks for sharing. The content alone made it worth watching, but (having made a career in the field) I...
I'm happy to go to sleep. It is past my bedtime. I didn't want to be rude by not responding to posts addressed directly to me. It is my...
We will need to disagree about the nature of the personal attack, although your position seems indefensible since David Tuller has acknowledged it...
You are confused with the differences between statements like "don't act like an ass-hat" and "you are an ass-hat?" And I was clear that my...
It was your question. If doing an interview with a major figure in the ME/CFS medical establishment in Australia is written off as fruitless on...
No, Jen was mischaracterized on this forum as having insulted the entirely of the UK ME/CFS population because she expressed her frustration that...
