If you know someone who lives with ME/CFS, your help and support can make an important difference to their lives.
Ask them what would make things easier for them, and what support they would like.
-
Perhaps prepare a meal, provide quiet company, help with housework or maintenance, or pay a bill.
-
If you invite them to an event, consider how to reduce the energy required of them, provide a quiet space to rest, and be aware that they may need to cancel on the day if they are too unwell.
-
Believe them. Learn about their experience and the illness.
Remember to manage the support you give around your own needs.
