Did brave things today. Faced the pain. Kicked its butt. Faced fear. Kicked its butt. Feeling not bad at all right now. :) Aug 2, 2025 at 8:52 PM

  • My Story

    I have had TMS my whole life on and off. In 2017, I learned about Sarno. Been on the forum since 2024. Since joining the forum I’ve gone from 16 symptoms to four. But I’m not out of the woods yet. My symptoms are not easy to live with. I need help to walk, and I can’t fully use my hands because they are curled up. (My right hand is better than my left, thank God!) Most of my really bad symptoms kicked in after I had Covid. I’ve had severe anxiety my whole life, with a history of child abuse. But somehow, I’m still here! Some days I’m very happy. This is good news because a year ago I was in the deepest darkest hole ever. Little by little, I believe I’m going to get better. I’m in it to win it. If you’re curious about more of my story, here’s some of the past. https://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/my-story-i-know-it’s-tms.28068/

      A bad symptom day is meaningless. It's just life, and you can choose to believe that tomorrow will be a better day. @JanAtheCPA

      There is a level of being totally and brutally honest and vulnerable with yourself that it takes to heal. @Cactusflower

      After you get your adrenaline to turn off, it still takes awhile for your body to unwind, says Dr. Claire Weekes. So be patient :)

      Something has shifted! Can’t put my finger on it. I’m happy to be alive again. I don’t feel doomed. That changes everything!

      Today I cleaned my pantry out. It was very satisfying! Symptoms punishing me right now.

      Starting to feel a much calmer baseline. It feels great! I work on curating my thoughts all day long. “I am safe.”

      Went to the farmers market. Walked far in my walker. Went into the market and faced being around people. They didn’t even notice me! :)

      There is one common thread among those who've beaten this condition. They stopped reacting emotionally at all to their symptoms. @RogueWave

        And another way he put it: "There is a point at which a person becomes willing to have their pain or gurgling gut or dizziness or weak legs. This is the point at which they go away." ~ RogueWave

      It’s funny that my best tactic for movement is cleaning, since I’ve never really liked it in the past. Now I’m thrilled to do it!

        I never liked it either; the thought of cleaning a whole room was depressing, but just doing a little bit 2 start off with eases u in2 doing what ur capable of & the achievement feels good.
