I wonder if OMF will do another symposium next year.

A root canal kills the tooth and eventually the tooth will completely shatter. It typically just delays removal, often by years, sometimes longer. I would get it filled and start taking Vitamin K2 (MK4). Only caveat, do you still have your wisdom teeth and are they unerupted. If the answer to...

I used to be able to do more then crash hard and the PEM was more delayed up to a week (once or twice), now its far less before conking out and PEM within 24 hours (typically) :cry:

I disagree, as my arthritis and painkiller example shows. If i had no idea what a painkiller does i can argue passionately that it treats the core of arthritis, some even reduce inflammation, further "proving" my wrong hypothesis. Same with antidepressants and depression, they work because they...

Keep in mind you can get positive results but come to the wrong conclusion. If i take a painkiller my arthritis will hurt less but i have not treated the cause, only masked it. One could make the argument its curing it between doses (one who does not understand what a painkiller really does)...

CBT is basically what an android would come up to treat emotions that it can't comprehend. Real therapy works when the clinician understands what they are doing (very rare, education today is about CBT) and when there is a good fit between counselor and client.

Well written. I hope it has a wide readership

Has this been covered on retraction watch?

I don't think Ampligen is the proper goal to chase here. I would look for acknowledgement, disability benefits and research money or Rituximab instead of Ampligen.

Five bucks donated to OMF says they will do nothing or try to sweep it under the rug. That is the modus operandi of double thinkers :emoji_face_palm:

Freud may be the father of modern psychology but he did a lot of damage by having a few good but a lot of bad theories and i think today they want to get as far away from him as possible. That said ignoring reality and treating it with CBT is like putting a band aid on a gushing wound, it won't...

Indeed, i have had the about the same thought, and having read a bit into the peer review process its quite clear that we need to tighten things up because fake science is becoming more prevalent. PACE and autism from vaccines are good examples of bad science that got published but should not...

This is a joke on humanity. A very sick one, and i don't mean just in the context of ME/CFS. CBT takes a mechanistic view of emotions, and its efficacy rate is dismal (as a result). You don't deal with emotions by ignoring them or recategorizing them. You deal with them by dealing with the...
