    I'm currently looking into this (have been for a while now), and it's way worse than people know.

    Thanks for reminding me of the Williams documents, they will be useful in showing how Wessely and White wrote about it in times beyond my research timeframe.

    I beg your pardon?
    I wasn't aware that my illness experience needed legitimation?

    Woolly nonsense that happens to sound like it appreciates some important points and arrives at a few conclusions I may agree with is still woolly nonsense and bugger all use to me. If this subject is to be covered I would prefer it to be by someone competent who can be bothered to know what they are talking about.

    I feel the need to repeat my usual point about papers lacking in clarity because they are written in this type of “academic” language.

    Often they seem thin on content and i suspect the language is used to cover over that. Many of the papers we see here would qualify for Pseuds Corner in Private Eye.
