It's been 3 months today since I started the Gupta programme. It seems to be helping. I just sent an email to a reader who's about to start, and here are some suggestions from it: I think the trick is that when you have an increase in energy... don't do more activity than what you've [...]
Chronic Fatigue Survivor's Blog
A blog about my experience recovering from Chronic FatigueBrowsing Posts published in March, 2010
I went to acting practise last night, and had a good time; it always gives me a lift. There's a girl there who I really like who has been quite friendly towards me, and I've been hoping to get to know her better. Last night I heard her say to one of the other guys [...]
Here's a great new alternative to Stop, Stop, Stop. It's particularly effective for dealing with anxiety... or you get your $5 back. Enjoy!
Nothing triggers my emotional insecurities like a pretty girl who appears disinterested in me. There's one such girl in my Toastmasters club. Let's call her Liz. She's extraordinarily pretty, intelligent, slim, shy and endearing. Shy and endearing look pretty attractive on a girl. When she turned up to a club meeting a few months ago, [...]
Ok, so here it is... my new hairstyle. I've been getting some pretty good feedback on it, and usually the person involved manages to keep a straight face. In acting class today, the teacher asked: "Have you had a haircut Graham?". He was serious! It's not too late to sponsor me to raise money for [...]
I felt anxious in acting class today, and somewhat overwhelmed. Felt a bit pissed off with life and the whole emotional struggle thing. I still have a backlog of email to read & answer from my meditation retreat, and an overdue book report to write. Plus I haven't seen my family in eons. My tendency [...]
Well I completed the 10-Day Vipassana meditation retreat at Dhamma Bhumi retreat centre on Sunday morning. It's a beautiful setting at Blackheath in the Blue Mountains, about 2 hours west of Sydney. If you want to do Vipassana, I can't think of a more beautiful place to do it. For me, the experience was largely [...]
I had a really good argument with a guy at acting practise tonight. He really pissed me off, and I didn't hold back. He was challenging me to open up, but wouldn't open up himself. He was playing games rather than being genuine. Plus he was unnecessarily abusive. So even though he was faking, it [...]
This is an edited excerpt from an email I sent to a reader asking whether the treatment in the Gupta program worked. After trying a bunch of other treatments and listening to crackpot theories from many quarters, I'm convinced that Ashok Gupta has hit the nail on the head with his amygdala hypothesis. CFS seems [...]
I feel really tired today. Spent all morning in bed. Think I'll go back there this afternoon. I realise that when I push myself, my symptoms just get worse; particularly the sore throat and cough. And my breathing gets really laboured, which is possibly the most annoying thing. I feel like stopping breathing just to [...]
