You’ve been working hard on your recovery.

But are you really?

After 17 years of helping people with M.E/CFS, there are certain questions I hear over and over again.
Can I actually recover?
Why am I not getting better even though I’m trying everything?
Am I doing too much… or not enough?
How do I know if I’m actually improving?
And how long is this going to take?
So I decided to sit down and answer 10 of the biggest M.E/CFS recovery questions in one podcast.
If you’ve been confused about what you should actually be focusing on, there’s a good chance I answer something you’ve been wondering about.

There’s one question that can become surprisingly exhausting when you have M.E/CFS:
“How are you feeling?”
Because it rarely feels like a simple question.
Suddenly you’re explaining your symptoms.
Why you could make it to something yesterday but can’t today.
Why you might look fine even though you don’t feel fine.
And by the end of the conversation, you’re exhausted from trying to make someone understand.
In my latest podcast, I share a simple way to answer these questions without over-explaining yourself.
Plus, how to set boundaries when friends or family keep giving you advice you didn’t ask for.

Most people with M.E/CFS know whether they feel better or worse.
But very few know what stage of recovery they’re actually in or what they should be focusing on next.
Over the past 17 years, I’ve seen the same patterns show up again and again.
So I’ve mapped them into 12 levels of recovery.
From feeling completely sick, suffering and lost…
To rebuilding your strength and confidence…
To eventually moving beyond recovery and living your life again.
In my latest podcast, I walk you through all 12 so you can see where you might be right now and what comes next.
