  11. From the #ThereForME series:

    "The importance of understanding rest"

    thereforme.uk/p/the-importance

    "This cultural dismissal of rest is especially harmful to people with ME or Long Covid, who must often rest for prolonged or indefinite periods. They face not only the impact of their condition, but also repeatedly justifying their need to adapt."

  12. Some ME/CFS resources (groups, documents, videos) in no particular order:

    I mentioned the #MEAction group earlier in this thread (see #StopRestPace post)

    Their website has lots of good info!

    meaction.net/

    Their events calendar includes support groups, advocacy meetings, and support for artists and writers:

  13. Okay, taking a break for a while!

    I'm resting to avoid PEM (post-exertional malaise) also called PESE (post-exertional symptom exacerbation)

    Speaking of resting here's a link to the #StopRestPace page by #MEAction which was created a few years back to explain the importance of pacing and resting to new Long Covid patients:

    meaction.net/stoprestpace/

    It has links to a few different pacing and management guides.
