This video may have been posted but incase it hasn't, here it is. Interesting comparison.
I have literally had to laugh seeing "long-haulers" on TV going on and on about their lingering symptoms, and how they are no better, and aren't getting any real help even now after 6 months. I've been sick now over 35 years...I'd be curious to know how many of those same people gave even the slightest shit about people with CFS all those many years. Of course I know the answer. Statistically, a lot of them had to have been amongst the many who've even mocked us...
I don't follow that subreddit @BrightCandle but that's really sad. I guess it's the usual thing - no one wants to have ME because there is no cure or treatment. It's 'chronic fatigue' so maybe those who mock us are being mocked by their own doctors and families who want them to snap out of it. So maybe they try to snap out of it through activity and exertion and just get sicker. First person I ever knew well who got a CFS diagnosis was post-meningitis, then came another post-sinus infection. I know I never mocked them but I never imagined I would be the one who recovered less well than they did when it was ultimately my turn.
