Here's my new song on the tension filled subject of #MECFS and hope. I'm honoured to include spoken word by @jayletay. They talk of hope... youtu.be/UW1gPX0LVfU

Hopefully of interest to counsellors who specialise in working with #chronicillness and to anyone with a chronic illness like #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis (aka #MECFS) and #LongCovid who's considering #counselling. #therapy #therapistsconnect #MentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters #bacp

I open twitter for the first time in ages. Why is every advert some scam picture of Stephen Barselett?

“Tories would be worse” translated… “I’ll accept them killing some disabled people because it could be worse”. Actually… I won’t accept ANY. Labour are the ones in Government. Labour are the ones killing disabled people. So if you fail to call this out, you’re complicit

a couple of people have asked me this in the comments so: the lowest amount of PIP someone can be awarded (above £0) is £28.70 a week, which is £114.80 a month, so remember that when the media tries to whip everyone into hysteria over this benefit. it is often a pittance

All Labour MPs have reportedly been called in to Downing Street for talks with Starmer about the expected disability benefits cuts. If you have a Labour MP, this is the time to email them. Tell them your objections. Tell them your experience.

I appreciate you sharing this. But tbh I feel pretty uncomfortable as a bedbound person with this being shared from a charity who’s chairman thinks I could just get up and make a cup of tea if I really wanted to 🙃. Also if you could tag me to credit I would appreciate that

No one who hasn't experienced chronic illness will understand the devastating grief of letting go of another day of your life. When you try to be active whatever that means for you and you realize you just can't do it today, that you have to let the day go and hope for tomorrow.

We support this strong message on @cochranecollab failure to address critical issues in its review of exercise therapy for #MECFS.

🧵 1) Dear @RachelReevesMP Hello, I'm Tim. You don't know me, so I wanted to talk to you about me & my world. It's a world of #MS #epilepsy, & #disability Can I start with symptoms? - Unable to walk. - Co-ordination problems. - Seizures, major & minor. - Depersonalisation.

This honestly could not look more like a Nazi salute

Had to check this myself as I didn't believe the tweet. Wow.

Most people are children in adult bodies. Emotional immaturity is a silent epidemic. How to know if someone is emotionally mature:

There are better organisations to support. Ones with Chairmen that don’t ridicule pwME for not moving enough. Ones that don’t threaten to sue members and fundraisers for asking why money is being paid to trustees. Ones that don’t sit on £3million for years instead of spending it.

My uncle was really interested in my ME and how it affects me recently. These conversations are so rare. He asked me what I do with my time. I realised that it was difficult to put into words what resting means. How do you explain the process of doing absolutely nothing?!

Plot thickens....
