When the disease mechanism is known the quacks of the lancet (reviewers of the pace trial) will be known as clowns. In particular, White, Chalder and wessely. These pseudo scientists stems from the days when it was thought that the earth was flat.
Even then we'd see Wessely trying to take credit in some way.. That guy couldnt handle a lot of ME/CFS focus going elsewhere.
......
And they accuse us of having delusional beliefs.
Here's some info I copied about personality disorders (I truely believe Wessely and a few of the other psychs have one)..
Personality disorders are deeply ingrained ways of thinking and behaving that are inflexible and generally lead to impaired relationships with others.
We've seen just how set and inflexible some of those psychs are in their views of ME/CFS.. eg Dr Shorter the other day saying there will NEVER be evidence that ME/CFS isnt a psychological disorder (or something along those lines). Their relationships with people who have ME/CFS are certainly impaired.
- Histrionic personality disorder is a pervasive pattern of excessive emotion and attention seeking.
ahhh we've seen this one with Wessely in the past eg when the ME/CFS patients according to him were out to get (kill) him and hence he was needing protection (so he said). remember.. we were all "terrorists" there for a while according to him. That is certainly excessive emotion ..and was attention seeking.
Narcissistic personality disorder
is a pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or actual behaviour), need for admiration, and lack of empathy.
Certainly he has this one...so of cause he believes the PACE trial which he obviously would think of being HIS views, he probably feels he owed the whole PACE trial just due to them having his views.. . so it doesnt at all surprise me to hear him say the PACE trial paved the way for the IOM report.
He probably believes that too.. he's delusional due to his personality disorders. Someone should treat the poor guy.
