Sometimes progress is hard to see with TMS. But I’m finding if you look carefully, you will see it. May 7, 2025 at 12:45 PM

My Story

I have been fighting TMS all my life. After I learned about Dr. Sarno in 2017, I had one book healing, and then my TMS returned in 2020. Joined the forum in 2024. Been slowly fighting my way free.

Here’s more of my story if you’re interested: https://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/my-story-i-know-it%E2%80%99s-tms.28068/ (Day 1 - My story- I know it’s TMS)

  Be satisfied with what little you can do at first. It’s the attempt that matters. —Dr. Weekes

    Yes -- exactly. Continue patting yourself on the back for these little accomplishments too.

  The only way to teach the brain that you are fine is to actually believe that and behave like a person who is fine would behave. @miffybunny

    Another one of my favourite miffybunny 'in-a-nutshell' quotations is: "you will need to get clarity on what is really going on here... which is just anxiety."

  Realized today I need to stop running from grief. Hiding from it doesn’t heal it.

  I do things slowly. So what? Most of the time I’m happy.

  I am right where I need to be today to change my life in an epic fashion. Slower is quicker. (Based on Nicole Sachs’s wisdom)

  Emptied the dishwasher PLUS hand washed the pots and pans. This is huge progress for me. I’m doing more chores. Yay!

  As the days go by, they will gradually improve if I let them. When you can say this and mean it, you will see a miracle happen. -Dr. Weekes

  During the pandemic I frantically searched online for the latest on staying safe. Now I frantically study TMS recovery. I’m too frantic.

  Got some work for the first time in months. Did it with my semi-functioning hands. Client loved it. Wow, I feel better!

  Still in a physical flare up. But my soul and spirit are growing by leaps and bounds.

  Facing off with abusers in my life, past and present, with newfound strength, is kicking up stress and symptoms. But for a good cause!

    I set boundaries with a coworker today and it felt fucking good. I'm there with you.

  Today is the first day since I started in March that I can actually feel my body letting go of TMS. It’s very subtle. But it’s there!!!

  Laughing at symptoms—literally ridiculing them is helping. Also saying over and over: I’m ok right now. I’m living now. Nothing is wrong.
