The thing that really upsets me about the BPS/MUS brigade is how the whole movement aims to discredit the intelligence of patients and our ability to recognise symptoms in our own bodies. The assumption we can't tell the difference btwn anxiety, deconditioning, and illness 1/
I am very aware (note: NOT 'hyper-vigilant') of my own body. I know when I am anxious, when I am sore because I haven't moved enough, and when I am sore and ill because I've moved too much. These three things all feel different. The BPS model assumes we don't know this. #MECFS
They say we are just not 'science literate' which is also insulting. I have a Master's degree, PhD and am doing a science degree. And I can say the model is fundamentally flawed from an epistemological, phenomenological AND methodological perspective.
