@Wyva, I hope this is not too long, and unfortunately the more I tried to keep my English clear and simple the worse it got.

I understand. To be honest, when I feel better then I am very concise and to the point. Then when I'm getting worse I start to find it difficult to focus my thoughts in that same way and start to get meandering and explain everything in a much longer text. I'm trying too hard to get my thoughts across and overcompensating I guess because the ability to express myself so concisely is gone. I'm less sharp. So in my case at least a long text means I'm getting worse. However, when I'm feeling really bad then I just don't write at all.

So I can relate when you say it was difficult to be clear and simple.
 
Sorry @Wyva, only just saw this.

Hello to people with ME in Hungary from a friend in New Zealand. A few years ago, before I became sick, I stayed in Budapest and thought the city, countryside and people were beautiful. I think the understanding of ME will increase because of the large numbers now with long COVID. I look forward with optimism to treatments and hope I will visit you again soon.

Kia kaha (stay strong).
 
If you already have enough messages please don't worry if you don't include the following. It is indeed tricky to be succinct so it is also fine to edit it down when translating. I hope the article is well received. Thanks, @Wyva.

ME/CFS can be a very isolating illness due to the nature of its symptoms and the disbelief and lack of understanding that people with ME/CFS may experience from doctors, employers, teachers and even family and friends. However isolated you may feel, you aren't alone. People with ME/CFS experiencing similar debility and hardship the world over are united by the depth of understanding for one another that living with the condition brings. Thanks in large part to high quality advocacy by people with ME/CFS and allies, the situation is gradually changing for the better. Take heart.
Sarah, person with ME/CFS, UK.
