This is a first-person testimonial by Andrea Wade (uploaded to Ashok Gupta's channel) describing her recovery from moderate ME after using the Gupta amygdala retraining program. She reports having had ME for four years, being given a 5% chance of recovery, trying multiple approaches that reached ~40% improvement, then beginning the Gupta program and noticing measurable improvement within three weeks and substantial improvement within six weeks. She practiced the program on and off for about two years and ultimately completed a coast-to-coast trek across Costa Rica with her horse; she strongly endorses the program.

Hi, my name is Andrea Wade and I'm just letting you know about the success I had with the Gupta amygdala retraining program. In fact, I have just completed a coast to coast trek across Costa Rica. Never in my wildest dreams four years ago would I have thought that that would have ever been possible. I had moderate me and I had had it for four years. I was not able to work, I worked with horses. So I felt like my life had completely fallen apart. I've been given about a 5% chance of recovery, but I never gave up hope. And I think that was partly key, was that I always believed that I would get better. Even in the darkest of days, I was determined to get better. I looked at nutrition, I looked at pacing myself, I looked at every possible way of recovering from me and all of them helped. But they only got me to about 40%, I would say. And then my mother in law saw a tiny snippet in the Daily Telegraph newspaper in England and she said, you should try this. And it was a testimonial. And I thought, well, I can get my money back, so I'm gonna give it a try. But I'll be honest, I was a little skeptical. Well, within three weeks, I noticed a difference. It makes me quite emotional because even though I always believed I'd get better, that's just my spirit at the time. When you're sitting in that hole, it can be a very lonely place to sit. So seeing like a 5% improvement in three weeks, four weeks, was amazing to me. And I, I'll be honest, it wasn't easy. There were times where I thought, if I have to say, stop, stop, stop one more time, I'm gonna run screaming from the building. But running screaming from the building wasn't an option for me, so I had to keep going. So I trusted the program and I kept going and I kept going. And within six weeks, I was substantially better. And I would say I practiced the program on and off for two years because recovery isn't completely linear. And there would be times when I'd have little setbacks. So I'd pull out my booklet again, listen to my DVDs and get myself straight back on track. I am so thankful to Dr. Gupta because he's lived what we've lived through. For those of you that are out there, that know they can get better, but they just don't know how, give it a try. You can always get your money back. It changed my life and I was able to walk across a whole country with my horse. So I will be forever grateful to the Gupta program.
