"I refuse to be treated like a lazy hypochondriac" T-Shirt

ME/CFS awareness t-shirt with bold front-and-back advocacy design challenges harmful stereotypes and demands recognition for the biological reality of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. The front features a powerful statement: “I refuse to be treated like a lazy hypochondriac,” followed by the truth that “Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) is a devastating neurological disease,” centered below a blue awareness ribbon. The back reinforces this message with a quote from Prof. Betsy Keller, PhD, stating, “It is intellectually embarrassing to suggest that ME is a psychological illness,” highlighting the need for scientific understanding and respect. A call to action supports the Open Medicine Foundation (OMF), directing viewers to their research at www.omf.ngo. This two-sided shirt is ideal for advocacy events, awareness campaigns, social media visibility, or daily wear by patients, caregivers, and allies. It communicates truth, demands change, and invites support for biomedical research — a powerful tool in the fight for recognition and real treatment.
