Afflicted

As a long-time sufferer of ME/CFS I was insulted by the way these people were portrayed. They were presented in a light which made them appear to be hypochondriacs, and while there may be some over-the-top crazies in any group, that does not negate the seriousness and realness of these conditions. I was hoping this would finally bring some much needed facts and information to light about my condition, but instead it just furthered the stigma. Very disappointing.
