@zclesa I read your post twice to better understand it. You display a behaviour I am very familiar with: overanalysis. This leads to self criticism and what I call ‘not good enough-ness’. I think the cause of this may lie in something different than you think, however. For example, you say you...

@Zendo3 Have you listened to Nicole's podcast? She recently released a podcast episode about allergies. It's called 'The Brain Science behind Allergies'. Maybe it is helpful for you.

Hi all, I need some help. I have been on a journey with TMS since this time last year, after discovering it for the first time. I realised my long covid had TMS elements, and many other symptoms I have experienced (including insomnia, anxiety, depression, IBS, etc) also were TMS. I have made...

I relate to this. I also got bogged down in searching / fixing / looking for new solutions as I just couldn’t find the structure I needed in a lot of the mindbody resources. I also think this is not always a distraction (although problem solving and intellectualising genuinely can be at times!)...

@music321 I happened to watch this video from Miguel today on Instagram. I think it’s exactly what you’re looking for: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CvxfPexgi81/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== (Recover From Chronic Fatigue Syndrome on Instagram: "How to Build Your Baseline | CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME...

Yes I should explain a bit. I started with this whole journey around the end of January when I was having a lot of symptoms (was mostly housebound and felt super bad). I did stuff from Nicole Sachs (JournalSpeaks); looked at Dan Buglio and some other practitioners too. I had a setback around...

I agree with @TG957 . Miguel also talks about duration of activity vs intensity and I think that also applies here. You want to do the same thing multiple days in a row with stable symptoms before adding a more stimulating activity on top (eg walking around). So sitting up for a few minutes...

Thanks all for the input. @JanAtheCPA this is an excellent post. Thanks for sharing it. I especially like the emphasis on learning to 'be okay' with the symptoms being present. This is something I still struggle with as I see it as a barrier to everything I want to do (hiking, running...

@music321 I am sorry, what a difficult experience you are having. What I do want to advise, tentatively, is to aim lower. It sounds like you are in a really challenging situation which is causing a lot of stress and negative emotions. I think the first step is accepting it. Your brain and...

Thanks everyone for the responses! It is great to be able to talk about it like this :) I think for me the hypervigilant nervous system makes a lot of sense, and the persistent ‘Freeze’ response (which occurs due to accumulated stressors and ‘load’ on the nervous system) which has been...

Hi all, I discovered TMS a few months ago and have so far used it successfully to make progress with my chronic symptoms. This is obviously great. I am confused about something and it is actually quite fundamental, which I hope someone can help me with. Namely the question: why does TMS...

Andy this is great! I have (had) long covid myself and the TMS world has brought me further than I knew was possible. There are some big names on there. Do you have a link via which we can watch? Or will that be up in a few months time?

@euroka that's brilliant! I am glad things are working so well for you. I am also nearly there now I think. I struggled with the belief aspect a lot as I had read so much long covid research by the time I found the TMS world, so there was a lot of unlearning or understanding to do.. it was...
