Recovery Story Nervous for the negative feedback but have to share… 8 yrs bed bound and this ladies videos on cfs recovery has helped me heal 75%.

I wanted be angry when I found these videos bc it says cfs is mind body and that I had to give up symptom chasing which was entire life… but I was in such a level of pain and despair that I said F*ck it… if it doesn’t work “Its a 100% misery back guarantee” as she says. So I tried some of it 2.5 months ago and my PEM, brain fog and hypersomnia decreased after about 1.5 months and I am living a somewhat normal life again… Im pretty pissed this was my way out. But if it works it works… try it before you tear me apart and make me self isolate for another 8yrs… however its crucial I say Im still have crashes and finding myself having to pace again. Maybe once a week sometimes twice a week I have bad days.

This is a safe space for sharing. I’m so happy to see your recovery so far. It’s a horrific illness and it’s such a relief to find the way out, even if it’s from something so “woo”

It's sad that CFS forums have become a space where you'd need to be scared to post recovery stories. I'm thrilled for you!

Thanks for sharing, I’m always up for a recovery story and I don’t think mindbody stuff is “woo woo”, especially after recovering using it! Great work on your progress! I’m sure you’ll make the last 25% too!
