Funny that nobody discusses the topic of this post: applying the concept of graceful degradation to CFS/ME.

I think it's a great idea, probably the most important step to advance from "I am sick, miserable and doomed" to "I'm living my live".

I decided to be well for the rest of my life. I felt bad and and miserable for too long. Now I am well, just at lower levels than a couple of years ago.

I'm curious how low my level of wellbeing might drop, until I start to feel bad again, but do not intend to find out.

Greetings to my fellow graceful degraders!

I did find it amusing that no one seemed to know which community the post was in hahaha.

I wish you health and hope
