Two researchers from this project has written a thorough opinion piece about the planned Lightning Process study arguing why it's so problematic that the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration will be playing a role in requiting patients to the study. This has also been shared in the thread...

An edited version of this article was also published in a psychological journal. Today, two researchers from FAFO who are working on the ME research project Tjenesten og Meg (on ME patient's meeting with health care and care system) have written a very thought provoking opinion piece on why it's...

I really enjoyed it too. Will try to see it again. There were some very useful quotes in the talk.

Thank for the advice, @yME !

Thank you, @Wits_End Yes, harsh light is really uncomfortable. Glad you found a solution in the end that worked. I ended up with matt tiles and am so glad the decision is done. Had I been well I would have loved the opportunity to renovate a bathroom, now it's just stressful having to take so...

Could that be the same study discussed in this thread? https://www.s4me.info/threads/lancet-acute-covid-19-severity-and-mental-health-morbidity-trajectories-in-patient-populations-of-six-nations-an-observational-study-2022.24993/

That's a good idea, Kitty. Thanks.

Thanks. Glad you think matt tiles are easy to clean too. and glad the tiler did a good job. I'm really 50/50 on what to choose..

That's very useful. Thank you! Hope you'll get to re-do your current bathroom.

looks very nice!

Indeed. I've gone for this pattern for the floor, but the white in my tiles will be a tad more yellowish/off white. very useful to see the additional pictures of different rooms with the tiles, including a bathroom with glossy tiles. https://www.wallsandfloors.co.uk/ledbury-black-tiles

I wish that was an option, but am mostly housebound, don't have a car and an insurance company is organising this, so have to make decisions on their schedule based on online research.

Thank you. All these inputs from you are very useful. The tiles will have a handmade look and not be completely flat. On the other hand limescale is not that much of an issue in my area. The floor tiles will not be glossy though, so not particularly slippery.

I can well understand such patterns may cause discomfort. Easy to forget while planning and too late to change your mind once the tiles are up.

Yes, those are also important things to consider, having a fall or dropping something on the floor. Vinyl could sound like a good option, but a pity you'd lose sight of your lovely terracotta floor.

That's great to hear. I had set my mind on the glossy ones, and am suppose to make a final decision today, but suddenly wondered if glossy tiles could trigger symptoms.

Thank you. Glad the hear you're not bothered by it and I think it's very good point regarding the light sources. It will primarily be integrative lights on a mirror and maybe a ceiling lamp with shade, so no direct, exposed lamp bulbs. I saw some pictures of glossy tiles in shops and thought...

Thank you. Yes, easy cleaning is a big plus! I would like the tiles to make the room appear bright and bigger, just not extremely shiny.
