    Agreed. We may be seen as withdrawing, but I would say we are withdrawn. Withdrawn by ME. There of course, is in some cases the decision to withdraw, to save one's energy. But sometimes a pwME is too sick to even consider going out and engaging with others.

    ME: free will versus determinism.

    ME has been defined by some as a lifestyle choice, while in reality ME forces significant life changes upon us.
