Pendulum swinging the other way again?

[ruben]

Is it me hallucinating or what? Looking around online it seems as though CBT, Lightning process, brain training programs and the like seem to be gathering momentum again as valid treatments for ME/CFS and Long Covid. Or am I mistaken?

Is it me hallucinating or what? Looking around online ...

If you are hallucinating, it is perhaps a group hallucination - there is a health email newsletter I subscribed to at some not remembered time for some not remembered reason, and right now I can't pin down its name, even after a quick scan of the email trash folder too, anyway, in recent months their ME/CFS related content has been giving me a similar impression to the point where I thought about unsubscribing.
Maybe I did, and that's why I can't find any of them.

I think earlier this year they even advertised a couple seminars about such things.

Question is
is it the same people as a decade or two ago pushing the philosophy, or is it a new generation?

 

[Wishful]

I think it's the same people, continually pushing their nonsense. They have too much invested in their reputations based on their theories to allow them to be challenged or fade into obscurity.

They don't want people to ask "Hey, are you the guy who had that theory that proved false and hurt lots of people?"
