Regarding psychological involvement with
#pwme, one common element that I've observed in every ME patient I've interacted with: Grief. This is from the loss of their job, income, social life, hobbies, sports, medical insurance, family, friends, and some case the ability to walk,Prikaži ovu nit -

This graphic speaks volumes. 95% of the time I'm definitely in lounging mode, you'd be surprised how much energy getting dressed actually uses up. So when you see me in 'leaving the house' mode it's a fake, a front, it helps me feel "normal" for a while

#MyalgicEncephalomyelitis is the monster, but those in the medical system who blame#pwME for this disease & tell us we’re lazy & seeking attention, are aiding & abetting the monster. You don’t need all the answers, you just need to listen & not blame victims.#MEAwarenessHour -
I don't have many followers (which is fine!) but if any of you who aren't
#pwME could retweet some of the#MEAwarenessHour tweets it'd be appreciated. It'll help get the message out beyond the#MECFS twitter community. Thanks. -
Imagine, just for a moment, that you've had surgery. You can't move around much or leave the house for 3 weeks. What bothers you? Solitude, not working, not cooking or cleaning, being in pain? Now imagine instead of 3 weeks this is the rest of your life

What I’ve lived as a
#pwME would shock you@PattyHajdu. Not being believed for 20yrs hurt more than my neuropathic pain that’s like a migraine in my whole body. Only now that I’ve been 100% bed bound (20 months) am I taken seriously. My doctors have no solutions.#MEAwarenessHour -
So true: ME patients don't fake disease - in social interactions, we usually fake being well...

To those who say
#pwME are faking. You’re right, we are. Every day that we fight, we’re faking that we’re not breaking. Every time we smile & laugh we’re faking that we’re not in agony. Every time we distract ourselves we’re faking that we aren’t terrified.#MEawarenesshour -
In summary, what is “normal” for ME can be hard to distinguish from dying, especially when you are forced to normalize really alarming and intense symptoms daily, for years on end. This puts in perspective the quality of life people with ME can experience.

Easy menu navigation. Limited moving/flashing text, images etc. Backgrounds not too bright. Although not brain fog related - a fair representation of spectrum of severity of
#pwME in photos. Thank you for what you are doing! -
And to feed and care for themselves. This grief should not be confused with depression, anxiety or any other psychiatric condition. It is simply a rational reaction to a great loss. Every
#pwme experience this. Every. Single. One.Prikaži ovu nit -

Spent a 1 hr appointment with a medical specialist today explaining all about
#MECFS and then got slugged $220 for the privilege. That was the extent of my appt. Shouldn’t it work the other way round and#PWME get paid for educating the ‘experts’..???#WhyDoIBother -
#AbleismInFourWords is trending... All in your head You don't look sick Come on, try harder I get tired too Have you tried yoga? Sleeping all day? Lovely!#MECFS#pwME -
Apparently my not being in a perpetual state of ceaseless positivity is the reason for being unwell. Apparently my illness is CAUSED by my unhappiness ABOUT MY ILLNESS. Sound the dickhead alarm — we have a dickhead in aisle three.
#pwME don’t listen to the dickheads, okay?
