Let’s jump straight in.


When we think about grief or we hear people talking about grief, we tend to jump to the assumption that they are talking about the death of somebody they know.  I would say that this is by far, the most accepted way of thinking about grief, based on my own experiences.  In reality though, we can grieve a number of things, even those that are intangible.  And this bereavement is a stress to our already delicate systems.


The top 5 most stressful life events haven’t changed that much in the past 10 years or so.  Number 1 is the death of a spouse/child or loved one.  2 is divorce, 3 is moving house, 4 is major illness or injury and 5 is job loss.

About the Podcast

Believe in ME with Rhona Barton
This podcast is all about ME. Each week I’ll bring you short manageable episodes that cover things from living with ME, understanding it, explaining it to others and learning how to love your life with it.

As somebody who lived with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) for almost 10 years, I’m passionate about offering hope and inspiration to others who are experiencing ME. I was bed-bound and wheelchair-bound with ME before finding my feet again and coming through the other side so believe me when I say, I understand what you’re going through.

If you are a woman living with ME, or you have recently been diagnosed with ME, then I’m here for you! I’ve been there, done that and I’ve not only got the t-shirt but I’ve worn holes in it too through all my trial and error!

So why don’t you join me? You can subscribe now to receive notifications of each episode and Season 1 launches on 16th May 2022 to round off ME Awareness Week.
