Although it is no longer m.e awareness week, we are still using this to raise awareness :)

Thank you for watching this video!

250,000 people in the UK suffer with Myalgic Encephalopathy, often not being able to continue with school or work normally. I've suffered with it for 5 years now, one of those years being bedbound. As sufferers we need to be heard by the world, it is such a misunderstood debilitating illness that is not recognised enough.

M.E Awareness Week (MEAW) runs from the 8th to the 14th May (with it's official date being 12th May.) My mission being is to raise as much awareness as possible through this video. If you can retweet this video or share via facebook, mention in a youtube video, I'd love you.

Thank you to everyone who is featured in this video as well, couldn't have done it without you. Especially Chlay for allowing me to use her wonderful song.

Please feel free to message me if you've got M.E :)

  • My mum had a seisure just over a year ago and that triggered her ME. She wasn't diagnosed for about 3 months. She's getting better as is hopefully returning to work in March.

    ME is officially a disabilty. But my mums employers aren't taking that into consideration for phased return.

  • You are so cute with your cat eyes. Great work on raising awareness on this nasty illness. I have it too.

  • Good for you raising awareness is the key! Too many people think that people are doing it to not have to go to work, or get money from the government...which is completely ignorant! Its not fair at all for people to be so judgemental especially when no-one really knows about it apart from the people who suffer from it! Even medical professionals (and I must admit I am a nurse) dont even understand it fully! it wasnt even metioned at when i was at uni tbh!

  • Hi Daisy! I am lottie on ayme.. I remember you posting about this vid when it was M.E awareness week and I did watch it then but since I've just got a youtube account I thought id mention how good it is again! i think its the first vid that comes up when you type in m.e awareness, go you!!Hope you are doing ok :) xx

  • Touching video! Well done!

    I am also a young sufferer of this awful illness. I have 2 awareness videos on my channel you may enjoy. Lovely vid xxx

  • @sunset1022 Try not to look at it that way! I know how hard it is, though luckily mine's not as bad as that, but you can still slowly work towards the plans you wanted to do! It may take a lot longer than others but you can still get there! It's not the end of the world, people get better from M.E! There's always hope! The only way of dealing with this is to try and remain as positive as you can. Look for the good things in your life, loving and understanding family and friends. Keep living!

  • WE fight for you , the system will one day make life a lot better for you, I will devote my whole life to that cause !? PEACE AND LOVE ALWAYS !
