Yup. Patients with #ME have been in hell for decades as well because of the preposterous and unverifiable BPS model that defines our illness as psychosomatic. I make cartoons about this

As most of you know, I paywall one personal essay each month to help fund my free reporting. In an ideal world, all would be free, but I try to thread the needle with this compromise. If you've got $7/month, pls subscribe and keep The Gauntlet alive!

Do you post all the same items from your Substack to your Patreon?

juliadoubleday.bsky.social•36 days ago

I do indeed! And all the same items are free vs paywalled. That said I did start the Patreon at a later date so it doesn’t have quite the entire back catalogue, it looks like I launched it in April 2024 so dating from that time forward they should be matched up
