I finally got my submission in today. Husband caught a gruesome cold from Grandkids, :( and managed to pass it on to me now we're in Wales. :arghh: I've spent most of the last few days awake all night :oops: and asleep all day. :rolleyes: I spent ages this morning doing a detailed post to...

Just searched TEDxBristol 2017 crawley on you tube and John the Jack has put up her speech in 2 parts.

@JCB you really don't have to write a lot. Some submissions are only 3 or 4 lines. Some are essay length. I've been reading bits out to and ranting about lots of them to my poor long suffering husband! I do know what you mean about even thinking about it brings back the stress of it all. It...

Hmm, she'll extrapolate to ME/CFS and then accuse people with mood disorders of stalking her and issuing threats? ;)

That's fantabulous! :) Why not ask her what she thinks about the above paper on social sculpture? Psychotherapy isn't at all like "social sculpture" - she'd probably be horrified by it. But don't feel you have to of course. :)

Thanks for this reminder @Andy! I've been reading the submissions thus far over the last few days - mostly they are absolutely horrifying. Seem particularly so for Autism Spectrum Disorders, including Aspergers. From what I recall there aren't that many for ME/CFS yet. A few for Fibro, but...

It's all Me Me Me isn't it? (please can I request a Barf emoji?) Just like the rest of the Psycho lot.

Not to mention the money spending rankings :banghead: and rubbish PhD rankings :speechless: so idiots like this can call themselves "Doctor". :eek: Socktor more like! ;)

Might be quite useful for me - could cut out the Cosmocol :sick: that I have to take every day! :) (For diverticulosis :eek: )

Or you can have the best of both worlds... A unicorn pony with wings! :rofl:

I'm guessing they might be My Little Ponies? ;) Though they look less like ponies now than they did when my girls had them back in the 80s! This looks more like a deer that has sprouted a mane. :sick: :arghh: :eek:

From this enterovirus? Or similar symptoms or problems? If so, maybe your local health authority should be alerted? Sorry for such poor reply, very tired tonight after long (for me) journey yesterday. ProMED mail is a recognised authority I believe, so share that mail if you need too. Best wishes.

Opened up my email this morning to find this article, seems to show some similarities to the more severe forms of ME. Shame health authorities don't treat ME as seriously as this. I obtained permission to copy ProMED posts to other Lists and websites many years ago. Just so you know that...

And I thought my pink hat was quite nice! :whistle: But Oh, real rampant militants us! :rofl:

I tried to view Crawley's TEDx stuff, but got a message saying that the copyright belonged to (can't remember organisation) and so it couldn't be broadcast in my country. I'm in UK for heaven's sake, and the last I knew so is Bristol? Does anyone have a working link for UK? Or is it all just...

I think there was a cursory glance into John's ruck sack and my handbag. In fact afterwards I remembered I was actually carrying a knife in my bag! :arghh: Only a tiny one, in a Victorinox Swiss Card (check it out in the usual places), but very sharp and I reckon you could do serious damage to...

Trev doesn't have ME himself - his daughter does. Hence why he turns up at demos (or used to, it's over 10 years since we went to one). So as a "healthy" it was prob easier for him to make the sign. I'm sure I used to have many more photos, but they've died in old computers I guess. I'm a bit...

Well I guess I must be on their list... Moderated on Co-Cure for a few years. Demonstrated outside DoH on May 12th I think 3 years on the trot, plus lobbied my MP in HoC too. Oh, and went to the Judicial Enquiry thingy too. May 12 International ME Day by Maggie, on Flickr Mary and me by...

Well they are being busy little bees aren't they? Love the couples psychotherapy idea - get patients' partners to take over the majority of the therapy! :banghead: And the one about using activity monitors on kids... Creepy :eek: Smacks a bit of big brother don't you think? Or maybe You...
