thank you for your thoughtful response! have you used IFS to treat any TMS symptoms? do you think firefighters and managers are responsible for creating physical pains/sensations in the body?

Has anyone tried IFS therapy for TMS symptom relief? What “parts” of IFS do you think are responsible for the symptoms? Managers or Firefighters? It’s very interesting material and I think the concept can be used to understand TMS. thoughts?

it’s a symptom imperative! treat it like any other TMS bullshit. do not fear it!

i think the definition of Limerence has evolved a bit lately and many people consider it an addictive disorder.

you totally have to deal with Limerence in the way you’d deal with any addiction. stop immediately and retrain your brain and thought process. limerence is very different than any regular infatuation. Limerence is an obsessive, compulsive disorder of a high magnitude and threatens to totally...

great strategies within this post. thank you!

breathing issues has been a lifelong TMS issue for me. it comes and goes~ a tightness in the chest, inability to catch a deep breath. it’s amazing how TMS can wrap itself up in breathing.

urinary urgency truly seems like a hobgoblin of TMS that is just very popular right now. I’ve had it like a motherf*cker and it’s been so darn difficult to shake. it’s gotten way better for me, but it’s been like a two year journey. i’ve come to realize i hold a lot of tension in my pelvis, more...
