Dank je wel. Houd niet alleen de focus op post covid (wat ik heb) maar op alle post virale ziektes. Zoveel mensen worden niet begrepen en achtergesteld. Het systeem moet echt anders
Ik dacht dat het nu redelijk geaccepteerd was maar na de laatste Zembla afl. was ik weer teleurgesteld

Promotional graphic for a video series titled 'Post-Exertional Malaise: Defining PEM/PESE โ Part 1 of 7.' The image features Dr. Brayden Yellman and Dr. Lucinda Bateman, both wearing white lab coats and smiling. The Bateman Horne Center logo appears in the bottom left corner.
Educational graphic titled 'Triggers for PEM' (Post-Exertional Malaise). Lists several triggers: exercise, orthostatic stress, cognitive or mental activities, environmental stressors (bright lights, loud sounds, multiple visual inputs, chemical exposures), and emotional responses. Accompanied by circular images of a person on an exercise bike, a busy city street at night, and people dining at a restaurant. Bateman Horne Center logo appears in the bottom right corner.
Educational graphic titled 'Examples of PEM Triggers in More Severely Ill.' Lists five triggers: reading a book, using a computer, engaging in conversation, showering, and sitting up to eat a meal. Includes circular images of a person reading, typing on a laptop, and a showerhead spraying water. Bateman Horne Center logo appears in the bottom right corner.
What is PEM/PESE? Itโs the worsening of symptoms after even small effortโphysical, mental, or emotional. Itโs real, and itโs misunderstood.

I hear you and as a fellow patient feel you too (4 years for me). I hope you can still find some light and fun things to do, how small they may be.

I hear you. (I needed to look up ADL for I was not familiar with that acronym). ADL comes for joy for me as well. Things need to be cleaned, and we still got to eat (healthy --> so we cook). You cant skimp much and when I do I feel guilty I chose a hobby over something 'that needed to be done' /meh

The only advice I dare give you is this. You can't do it alone (anymore). Seek help, friends family and above all professional help. In the US prof help could be to expensive ๐
When there is a cure (of some sorts) I personally don't think it will come in time for us long haulers (4 years for me). There is to much damage done to the body for any medicine to fix.
Perhaps they will find something to make some symptoms less worse.
Yes
Sadly, it is difficult to understand (and feel) what we are going through.
* typefout en mag niet corrigeren.
Ik bedoelde te zeggen. Haal de kleine dingen uit het leven wat nog wel kan om verder te gaan
...je hebt het wel nodig om verder te gaan.
Niemand zegt dat het makkelijk is, het heeft mij ook bijna een jaar gekost om te zijn waar ik nu ben (en ik ben er ook nog steeds niet)
Wat voor mij werkt en wat ik van mijn psycholoog heb geleerd is het volgende
Hoop leid tot verwachting en (bijna) altijd tot teleurstelling. Hoop niet, neem wat je hebt en haal de dingen uit die je nodig hebt om verder te gaan.
Acceptatie betekent niet dat je tevreden moet zijn, maar...
Yes, this.
I still can not probably describe it. It really is an off/on feeling. It is suddenly there, and then I know that if I don't stop what I am doing I am in trouble. I hate it when it happens when I am in a store and I need to get home very quickly
Thank you.
