It’s ironic that the last point is followed by the one below. We’re not going to get anywhere if we replace BPS myths with bio myths. The rest is decent, except for the last one that goes beyond the evidence with «nervous system overarousal», even ignoring the negative controlled tVNS trials.

What a pity. Good to see that dr. Elke Hausmann also participates in the discussion.

If I can't make a point without writing several paragraphs then you find it unconvincing? Unfortunately some points take longer than a bumper sticker to make! I'll do my best to be as succinct as possible. My point is that the broader community that both has and advocates for these often...

I thought that commentary by Dr Elke Hausmann on the book Invisible Illness was excellent and well worth a read. Skimming this thread, it looks as if there are two issues: 1. Mendenhall suffering censorship by Wessely for a journal article that criticised him (and PACE?), and 2. Mendenhall...

Oh dear. Comes across as defensive but not very precise. Making quotes of the criticisms that she is defending herself against would have been more helpful, (Edit) rather than her own *interpretation* of the criticisms. The 'Long Covid Advocacy' Blog replies underneath Emily Mendenhall's new...

This does not look good: It looks like the author might have bitten over more than they could chew. ME/CFS is a topic ripe with misinformation and has experienced a narrative war for decades, so it’s understandable but unfortunate. I would not feel comfortable writing a book like this even if I...

Long COVID Advocacy substack has a post by a guest writer, Dr Elke Hausmann (I don't know anything about them): https://longcovidadvocacy.substack.com/p/these-are-not-verifiable-conditions Looks like Elke tried to write a balanced post and started with positives but ran out of them quickly.

It's much worse than that. Not being universally seen as positive hides the fact that this ideology is literally at least a top 10 most harmful ideologies in history, and it's precisely because of its embrace by medicine as benevolent-and-universally-harmless that has allowed it to do more harm...
