Then I would try to do the opposite of what you are afraid. If your "danger/fear" is that you will have to live forever with that. Your problem is probably like mine. You are afraid that it will not go away. You are obsessed with it. You probably monitor yourself and check how severe and...

So, i am writing my story. I know it is not the most standard TMS story. I know, some people might disagree with me. That is not TMS or you are wrong or whatever... But I will say it anyway. If I help even one person it is worth it. It is a pretty long story. If you do not want to read...

I work in radiation therapy for cancer patients. Tms can have an effect on the immune system and the ability of a person to prevent getting cancer, or it can weaken an immune system, which is crucial to fight cancer better. But that is it. If somebody refuses physical treatment for cancer...

Wow! thanks a lot for these suggestions. I was not aware of the things that you mentioned, So I will for sure give them a try!

Thank you guys for all the answers. I really appreciate it. Sometimes the most helpful answers are the ones we do not agree with! :D I will take a look at the work of Hanscom, I want also to take a look at the work of D.Schechter and my plan is to also read from Schubiner. I have seen several...

To answer your first question, I believe that I am a perfectionist. This is why I often overcommit to things. This is why I would like to do everything into my powers to help my self in this case. I know TMS is also letting yourself relax. If you overtry, somehow you give more importance to...

Thanks for your answers. I actually do journaling. As suggested I have a list with experiences that caused me some intense emotions, a list with my personality attributes and a list of things that stress me right now. And I have already written about many of them. I have also written letters to...

Hello to everybody, I am a new member to your group. This is my story! I am in my late 30ies. In my 20ies (15years ago) I had some acute episodes of low back pain after days of extreme stress, like the day after a very important exam, so extreme that I could not move or do anything. I would...

Thanks a lot for your answers. Then I guess that I can start with the Mindbody prescription and the Alan Gordon program and then probably move to the SEP and the journaling approach in order to dig a bit deeper. :)

Hello to everyone! New member here, After 6.5years of constant pain, my pain changing locations and intensities, upper back pain, shoulder pain, recently neck and a little head pain I read about TMS and I feel so much better. Just the idea that the pain originates from my head, when I feel some...
