Yes, my precious, I am alive, if slightly flail-ish and fail-ish, too. *sends hugs to everyone*

Doctors are all dumbasses. Some of my doctors thought that four years of exhaustion so severe I could only be active one hour out of every 24 was all in my head, too. And, I mean.... it's a mental problem... of course it's all in your head, it's just how your brain perceives and deals with the world and life. The only scale would be how much control you have over it which would distinguish it from a disorder or just like, a mental fantasy, but how can a doctor really make statements about where you are on that scale without being inside your head unless it was at either extreme of the scale and massively obvious through your behaviour? Thus, doctors are stupid.

Edit! I want to reeeeeeeead!
