CBT for ME that is accepted by the community.

Or just get a friendly [insert pet of choice here], and skip the whole seeing a psych step.

 

Thanks Yessica.

I'll post about it over on the S4ME thread about HealthPathways.

 

I’m possibly falling into the trap of thinking what works for me would work for everyone else but I genuinely think person centred counselling is worthwhile people with ME trying if they have the possibility.

 

I'm glad it helps you, and I understand it can be helpful for people coping with all sorts of challenging life events, including chronic illness. But I dont see how it would be specifically helpful for ME any more than any other chronic illness, so I dont think it belongs in any guideline like NICE.

 

Oh no I have lost the thread I wasn’t saying it should be specified anywhere just an example that not all psychological support involves trying to control people.
