Summary
She attended a Lightning Process course in February 2018; by the third day she was able to spend "a whole hour going for a walk," which left her "weeping for joy." She had felt unwell for around three years during university, with a breakdown after an exam in autumn 2017 leading to a severe ME diagnosis in December 2017 at age 22, at her worst needing hours just to gather the strength to brush her teeth. Six months after the course she says her "life is good again," and she has traveled abroad, exercised and been social. She says she still has some challenges but feels better equipped to handle them with the "toolbox" the course gave her. No explicit relapse is mentioned, though she stresses that the illness was physically real despite responding to a mental technique.
