Social recognition is better than the gaslighting folks with ME/CFS and other so-called "functional" diseases (with the scare quotes read "we really think you're nuts but won't say it out loud") often have

Definitely, and dealing with malingerers is infuriating. That being said, when in doubt, I thin that doctors should trust patients (defendants are presumed innocent, patients should be presumed to be sick). Stiffing the ill to spite possibl

Doctors behave as if medical knowledge was exhaustive, and infer that symptoms they don’t understand come from mental illness. Most diseases have a psychological component, but patients are seldom referred to a psychiatrist for treating the

It’s an example that made the rounds on Twitter last week, it might actually have been GPT4, I don’t remember. You can also ask ChatGPT to "write an essay about a man" then about a woman, to reveal bias.
