Honoured to be asked to speak at the Gathering/ Meitheal in Moville today about the Foyle on this National Famine Memorial Commemoration Day. Poignant to be in Moville where so many emigrated from. Water Guardians from as far as Columbia gave so much inspiration and hope

Are we doing this again? This opinion piece calls for HOPE as a treatment of ME/CFS. Or does it? In 2021, NICE reviewed interventions. We already have evidence. ➡️Graded exercise and CBT don’t cure ME/CFS& GET can be harmful. ➡️The lightning process is not recommended.

I was unable to work between December and late March due to a breakdown. Every single RT here helps put my creative & mental health workshops in front of more eyes & helps me get back on my feet financially. It would help *so* much if you could RT my workshop below if you have a

This is brilliant work from TeamClots colleagues Resia Pretorius & Mark Faghy.Again yet another paper clearly demonstrating pathobiological changes in PEM. The fact that some few individuals still believe PEM in LC &ME can be treated by reframing illness beliefs beggars belief

I’ve not been well this week & have been thinking about whether to continue making my living this way, my value as a disabled (autism+ADHD+PMDD) human & I’ve been comparing myself to others (never good). When I feel low I make miniature posies. I’ve been mocked for them before
