I agree with BrightCandle: I've had my ME abruptly switch from full ME to full non-ME over the space of minutes, which is strong evidence that there isn't permanent damage involved. I've also had abrupt switches from long periods of just dragging myself around, to feeling energetic enough to go for multi-hr hikes (but not fully non-ME), which also doesn't fit the theory of permanent damage.
I think ME involves a feedback loop with a positive value. Switch that to a negative value and the system returns to normal.
Yeah see this is the thing, I have like a mentioned had "winning the lottery" rare windows where I went into near complete remission but after that things rapidly set back into a specific range and mode of functioning where I'm stuck again. When I'm back into being stuck in my usual states of functioning like I said I can feel the specific neuro pathways that are going wrong but am hopeless to do anything about it, it's as if there is a wrong set path for the way my brain processes information but it's actually possible to break out of it and return to normal. that is probably the best way I can describe what it's like.
