THE MOST DANGEROUS 'FALSE ILLNESS BELIEFS' ABOUT ME/CFS ARE THAT IT IS A PSYCHIATRIC PROBLEM, AND THAT EXERCISE WILL HELP. The Beginner's Guide to ME/CFS states unequivocally that it is complete rest from the very beginning of this illness which creates the necessary precondition for progress towards recovery. Currently recommended treatments - Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and Graded Exercise Therapy - can wipe out this possibility, sending patients down a path towards severe and long-term disability - for which the patient can then blamed. The Guide contains useful advice about how to maintain a semblance of normal living while conserving physical exertion. Les Simpson's research - ignored by the medical community - provides additional recommendations which can improve your well-being.
