@LongCovidAdvoc These people, from Wessely on, ignore the giant problem with their "influencer" theory. Many of us became sick long before the internet and didn't hear about ME until years after we became ill. But let's not let facts get in the way of a good theory. 231 views · 23 likes · 3 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
2/3 Suzanne O'Sullivan - The Ultimate Sickfluencer https://t.co/iyBLYmTOO1
If they become knowledgeable about their condition, they're “too attached” to their diagnosis. If they speak publicly about their illness, they're “attention-seeking”.

Almost any patient response can be turned into evidence for the theory.

And there is an uncomfortable irony in repeatedly accusing others of seeking attention while becoming a prominent public figure through telling people that their physical symptoms may actually be psychological.

Perhaps if we're going to talk about “sickfluencers”, we should also examine who is rewarded with platforms, media attention, books and professional status for promoting these narratives. O'Sullivan has become the 
ultimate sickfluencer, fulfilling what she criticises others for.

3/3 We deserve better than internalised misogyny that invalidates & demonises women in response to a forgotten pandemic. https://t.co/QgszqNgQXF
Women with poorly understood illnesses have a long history of having their physical symptoms dismissed as psychological. We should be asking why patients aren't being believed, diagnosed and treated — not finding ever more sophisticated ways to blame them.

To have female doctors & journalists display
this internalised misogyny should cause reflection on their part.

This matters particularly now, as disabled people are increasingly being blamed for “economic inactivity” and welfare spending.
The old medical dismissal is being repackaged for a new political moment.

Disabled people are not the problem.
And “psychosomatic” should never become the answer simply because medicine doesn't yet have all the answers.

Our statement in response to The Telegraph article: 'How having a disability became cool' Young women, named 'sickfluencers', are turning chronic illness into a lifestyle trend & entrenching a culture of economic inactivity.' by Poppy Coburn https://t.co/gdibG1htY4
It is disheartening & predictable to see Suzanne O’Sullivan once again given a platform to promote psychosomatic explanations for chronic illness — this time in a Telegraph article attacking disabled people as influenced by social media, identity and attention.

There is a fundamental problem with this framework: it creates a self-reinforcing evidential trap. If patients accept a psychosomatic explanation, it confirms the theory.

If they reject it, their distress is interpreted as evidence that they are psychologically invested in being ill.

If they seek support from other patients, that's “social reinforcement”.
