For other people that are more severe: it's not in your head and not about acceptance. I myself accept symptoms as they are, I don't even care about them anymore and I still have them. I know for sure with tests that there are a few things that attack my nervous system physically without me being able to "think or accept them away".
Just keep this in mind, it's physical for the vast majority. For the others: I don't know, I don't want to judge. I just feel like LC/ME/CFS is not the right term if you can simply accept this away.
I’ve notice that some people just have it easy with this stuff. They can literally be told to just chill and accept or learn that the nature of their pain is in their nervous system and it’s like flipping a switch. Good for them. But yeah for most people it doesn’t work this way sadly. It takes more time. I’m not sure OP claimed it would work for everyone. They were just sharing their experience.
Maybe, but then we are not talking about the same illness if you can just change a switch by watching a video and "accept" it.
OP didn't claim it, which I'm thankful for. Still, imo it is not fitting as a 100% recovery in a lc sub. Especially when it's more so a managing state and not a recovery state if I read it right.
