FALSE ILLNESS BELIEFS and CBT DEVOTEES

I got a really interesting email from our correspondent in London a while ago, who pointed me to the CBT KINGDOM, and a workshop they were organising to treat their own species.

But before I could use it on my BLOG the BBC was so kind to turn the spotlight on ME and my BLOG for a week.

The workshop our special correspondent had spotted was called:

“Cognitive-behaviour Therapy for Delusions”

And it becomes very interesting indeed if you read what they were planning to do for their DELUSIONAL CBT BLOKEYS.

I’m wondering if the GOBSART BLOKEYS will be there as well, together with the would be LANCE ARMSTRONG, so 001/7, our special agent with ME, will make sure that this is the day he can actually work.

So he will arrange his resting schedule around this event.

Just read and enjoy, and remember what someone wrote to ME as well. He said, he hadn’t had so much fun in reading my BLOG, since this psychosocial model became the norm for stand up comedians.

So enjoy, and if you have absolutely nothing better to do, or if you are very curious indeed what these delusionists look like, go to the CBT KINGDOM to see them. Well, you can't anymore as the workshop has already taken place but read on and you will see that many actually did go.

“This workshop will cover psychological models of delusions and CBT skills and techniques for working with delusions.”

So after many years they are finally seeing, what we have been saying for years, that we don’t need CBT or any of their interesting ideas.

Now as we all know, this was classified as harassment and together with their delusional Collusionism this caused them to have abnormal illness beliefs that are so bad that they need their own CBT for a day.

“Background: Recent research suggests that delusions lie on a continuum with normal beliefs, and that their form may be more important diagnostically than their content.

Key psychological models of delusions emphasise the importance of unusual experiences in driving delusional explanations, the role of appraisals in determining delusional outcome, as well as the "jump-to-conclusions" reasoning style.”

Now if you read the guardian today, free online, I have put them in a special basket together with other things, also called favourites, you will see that they actually put a picture of all the people who went to see the delusionists, on their front page. Just have a look:

These CBT DEVOTEES, actually loved this expertly concocted publicity event so much, that they were mad enough to queue from before dawn until after sunset, in icy weather, just to have a look at these Delusional CBT BLOKEYS. (click on the picture for more info).

Now I also got a special video send to ME, that lasts about half a minute, that is a lot more effective than CBT.

And the good thing is, it is free of charge thanks to Mr You and his Tube.

Oh, and don’t forget to listen as well, as you will get some valuable CBT tips on how to cope with ME and other things.

I don’t know if you are aware but some people on the BBC message board have said they really have ME; when others questioned the diagnosis as they were cured with a nickel and a dime.

Now if you read on and have a look at one of the transcripts and what Shirley Conran said, you can have another day in the field.

A shame that I can’t get the BBC, but her comments are well worth repeating.

“Oh I think CBT is very, very good for not only people with ME, I think it's good for everybody, just as I think everybody probably needs a psychiatrist after they're 21 years old. And if you have ME you certainly need a psychiatrist to deal with the difficulties that the medical profession is going to put in front of you.”

Another great post was by Suzy Chapman, who actually put her name at the bottom of her posting, message 292 that is.

“e) Dr Gibson states that "cognitive therapy...helps". Really?”

But make sure you have a look at the splendid video above, it is GET and CBT in half a minute or so, and I am told that the cure rate of ME is in the order of 82%, just like with the advertised reversal Nickel and dime therapy, where you learn how to turn on the light.

Just read the following post and you will actually see that many of the advocates of this therapy are new born therapists trying to lure clients to their own shop.

No, I didn’t come up with this, it was genieticktock (U10277230) , in Message 293

“When the names on the list were compared with the names of the practitioners at least a third of the comments that had been posted had come directly from those working as therapists.”

At least with the CBT BLOKEYS you know what they want, you know they advertise CBT for washing your car, playing soccer, reading the newspaper, and they are very fond of false illness beliefs even for cars like this.

You see, it keeps on telling its owner I am not a Ferrari but the owner has just read the manual of CBT-ism and is now a qualified therapist in nothingness and so he has decided he has actually got a FERRARI. Now I am not a FERRARI expert, but I would think the car is right.

Wouldn’t you????
