Good question: my mum. Why? Because I don't feel confident that I would come entirely from a place of compassion. My facilitator and I have done a lot of work on my emotions surrounding the relationship and my gut is saying there is a conversation to be had there. However my gut is also telling...

Morning everyone. I'll tell the highlights of my TMS journey so far: Major symptoms are brain fog and fatigue. In that these are the ones causing the most distraction and fear. Sub symptoms are skin issues on legs, mouth ulcers, potentially a dairy/peanut/oat intolerence (am slowly testing...

Exactly that! It's my addiction/distraction of choice for hiding whatever it is the unconscious wants obscured, too. Most insidious, given that if I'm feeling fatigue/fog symptoms, that rush of nervous energy (in the form of pressure) is a welcome relief from having no energy at all. It's...

Andy, thank you. Your words have given me encouragement to go on and, more usefully I think, a renewed sense of patience. It's all too easy to feel like there is a rush to get to the finish (because the finish means loads of energy!) And the truth is that this rushing holds the finish back. Elliot

Happy to report I spent about 3 hours producing a LoFi track this morning, after writing this post. I didn't feel energetic, or particularly motivated to do it. But I also felt NO anxiety, panic, phsyical symptoms of fear... For the entirety of the session. When I had to do something like...

Think of some activities you really enjoy doing. If you could do one of these activities without feeling stressed out, without having anxiety, and without worrying about your family, kids, job, etc. how would that feel? Why do you not do this activity more often? What steps could you take to do...
