We understand the effect ME can have on people's lives, especially for children and young people. Whether you're looking for information, access to our free support services, including our Young People's Counselling service, or to connect with other young people living with ME, we're here to help.
Being a child or young person with ME can be extremely challenging. Managing your health, school, and relationships can be complex and you can sometimes feel alone, like you're the only one who understands. Our information and resources are designed specifically for young people under the age of 18 and can help you in managing your ME.
ME is a complex illness and managing all aspects of living with the condition, such as getting the most out of your GP and managing your sleep and eating, can feel confusing. We have lots of information and resources available to help guide you through managing your health.
When living with ME, it's understandable that your education will be affected and this can be hard to manage. You may need to arrange for adjustments or a support plan to be put in place at your school or university, and you may be worried about losing friends. We're here to help.
