So why do people who are immigrants get it? They’re just the same as people who didn’t have enough credits/years paid in? I’m really confused.
I worked offshore for some years and made sure I had enough years paid in.
If I settled here from abroad as an adult immigrant then I wouldn’t have...
I feel like there’s a meme for this? You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means! A film quote which shows a deeper understanding and insight than the good Dr.

Not a fan of the logo or colours, however having experience in charities I can imagine it ticks a lot of boxes. I am personally creating a fantasy in my mind, entirely made up, that they want to get their house in order pending a big reveal by Decode ME later this year….I can dream
I love this idea. I think it’s workable. You could find people with similar levels of ME, similar home circumstances, age sex etc so that the group are homogeneous . It’s at home so big tick there. And deteriorating to the point of having to drop out tells us something, too, if you actually...
Cant we just do a literature review, but one which w cherry pick and doesn’t even back up our assertion about the BPS deep need to be correct in the face of evidence that they’re not? Or shall we just view it through the lens of DARVO and abuse and coercion?
I’m aware that these are the rules, but as I said I had free expert advice (after a long tribunal process I still got 2s, despite extensive evidence and reference to their rules, that I don’t need any assistance to do anything at any point in the day). I’m now going to waste everyone’s time by...
I got a bit of free expert advice and they said my ADLs at 2s were about all you’d expect for someone who doesn’t have any carers or OT type assistance, and with no serious (documented by consultant report etc) mental health issues.
I think I will push for a Care Assessment (the LA told me I...
Feeling a bit freaked out to be honest. I’d be looking at losing 40% of my current income.
Honestly I feel like I want a PIP assessment where I will spend the days beforehand absolutely overdoing it, so they can see what happens if I don’t rest. They don’t understand it in writing so I’ll have...
Nah not always, you just say it, and it’s true. The young people call it “manifesting”. It’s kind of like making stuff up to suit you. Even the study fabricators believe they're right - and they didn’t even carry out a proper study!
Paul believes he had Long Covid and (coz someone said he met Canadian Consensus Criteria) ME and he cured it by thinking differently, so I don’t put much stock in what he believes will or won’t happen.
He is also closer to “three score years and ten” so he’s on a more limited timeframe than say...
Personally Bob, I’d like someone to undo the GET&CBT type CBT that I got. Surely filling someone’s head with CBT nonsense is exactly the sort of thing some CBT can fix?
Again though, it highlights the problem that CBT can mean all sorts of different things.
If there is quantitive data that a particular CBT has good out comes for SLE then it’s pointless comparing it with qualitative data for ME. So it literally may not be possible to compare such disparate items.
