Thank you for sharing

Well said!

Fear has been one of the main contributors to my TMS symptoms throughout my life. In one of his books, Dr. Sarno described the 9/11 effect. Many Americanas experienced new or increased physical pain (and equivalent symptoms) after 9/11. This came with the the realization that they weren't as...

I've dealt with sexual anxiety for years, so I can relate. The best way to tackle the issue is to take the pressure off of yourself. I understand this is easier said than done. Start with practicing acceptance and adopting an "it is what it is" perspective - even though that might seem...

I've been considering giving it a shot. As Sarno has said, your intention is important when going into something like this. As with massage, if you go into it for the relaxation benefits, it will be beneficial. If you go into it with the expectation that it will "heal" you, it may do more harm...

Thanks! Bookmarked the site, and I'm looking forward to diving in!

I'm posting this with hopes that will be helpful to those who are experiencing an increase in TMS symptoms due to the COVID-19 pandemic: For several months, there have been reports of many people dealing with "long haul" symptoms after recovering from the COVID-19 virus. In many cases, they are...

Hi All, A few weeks ago I started a thread about my coronavirus symptoms. I've been sick for 4 weeks now, and I'm fairly certain that it is coronavirus. I'm basing this on my symptoms and feedback from my doctor. I have not been tested as my symptoms have not been life threatening. TMS has...

Whatever I had, I'm mostly over it, except for a very mild lingering cough. Even though I can't be sure, if I had to guess, I'd say that I did have coronavirus, because the symptoms matched. If that's true, I count myself as fortunate as I got off much easier than so many others. As @sam908...

I started feeling sick on March 14 and have been feeling sick (on and off) ever since. I've had a low grade fever (99.5 - 101 F) most of the time, and, during the first week, I was very tired. Now, I'm coughing a lot, especially during the night. My symptoms match those of coronavirus, and...
