Just an update on my vaccine experience - I posted here a while ago not sure if I should get it or not. I send the ME Ass letter to my GP. Had a...
Good points. The thread is here https://www.s4me.info/threads/book-the-body-keeps-the-score-bps-type-rubbish.16299/#post-280866 The book is...
I've been told similar. After believing it for a couple of years and going along with that narrative, I no longer find it helpful. I actually...
