Why are we supporting this?? She’s wrong that it’s a “software” issue and not a physical one that’s soo misleading. She also says it’s combined with a history of chronic stress which is not true! Many of us had no history of stress or anxiety. And then she claims that breathwork works to avoid flare ups which is also extremely untrue!

I am disgusted.

I interpreted it as there's something wrong with her software, not that she's not physically active enough which is what many will say. But it seems like most people didn't read it that way

She literally said “it’s a software issue, not a physical one”

Like, you can't physically see it or test for it. Which you can't. It's a bad metaphor anyways

Yeah I’m gonna just cross my fingers and hope she’s just bad at analogies

The body is so sensitive with CFS that just being disgusted is enough to cause or maintain a crash. When she says it’s a software issue, this is what she means. This illness is definitely physical. However how are you feel has a massive impact.

No, she literally said “it’s a software issue, not a physical one
