This is a post for all comments regarding Simon Wessely's quote in New Scientist. It deserves its own post.

"The belief that [CFS] is all in the mind has been around since the beginning," he says. "It's tragic that it might take a study like this to take sufferers seriously."
It is important that Simon isn't able to rewrite history about him creating the narrative about ME as in the mind over decades since the 1980s and now reposition himself as an advocate for biomedical as his psychological school of thought crumbles!
