I think CBT is a very nebulous and malleable thing, and seems to cover a multitude of sins. CBT, by definition, is about patients coming to...
Yes I can fully appreciate that. It's all too easy at an intellectual level to think you are empathising with and understanding someone, but...
All I was saying is that if someone's ME/CFS deteriorates due to over-exercising, then no matter what the reason for over-exercising, it will be...
No, I'd say by definition that is not maladaptive. My assumption was that "maladaptive perfectionism" goes beyond the notion of being a...

If a vaccine is deemed 90% effective say, what does that then mean for the other 10%? Within that group do they then have the same probability of...

That is often known as an avalanche effect, where all is OK until a final straw tips things across into a dramatic collapse of the status quo. But...
Yes, I could buy into that. Threshold is a much more generally understood term. No more precise than any of the other terms, but precision is not...
The flies were on me I'm afraid. Not been into this thread for a while and jumped to the mistaken conclusion that @Andy's first NICE-letter post...
Sounds very promising :). And yes, sincere thanks.
Have we managed to do this by the deadline? I presume close of business is passed now?
So why am I not feeling surprised ...
