Yes, it it not a good moment politically to discuss the psychological correlates/causes of disease. Probably hasn't been since the AIDS crisis, to be honest.

In future decades we will hopefully be more mature around these subjects.

It's super weird to me to claim CFS is caused by psychological issues. Imagine all the people who were whining about COVID shutdowns and isolating for 14 days or whatever, with people frothing at the mouth about how depressing and how stunted their children are for not going to school. Okay, wow, looks like CFS forces you to do all that isolating/missing school/etc, maybe that causes mental illness the way it caused that for the broader population...
