I have been contemplating this questions for way to long. Miffy you are spot on. I have struggled with "When will I be Normal again?" I have a date in the past scorched in my brain I was normal on this (date) I have TMS since this (date). Why can't I just be "happy" when not in pain or anxious...

If you are a SHOWTIME "BILLIONS" watcher has anyone noticed Dr. Sarno being mentioned very quickly and briefly in 3 separate episodes in the first 2 seasons?

Lynn, I had a L knee torn meniscus. I took my MRI to a well trained TMS Dr. here in Michigan. He concluded with another Dr. opinion I would benefit from surgery. I had it repaired and doing well 5 years later. You can rehab, lift weights, etc.. but if the tear is significant there is the...

To all TMS healers, followers, my post was meant as a sarcastic way to bring LAUGHTER which we all know is an important element in our healing process. There was NO intent to harm or disrespect. I was one of the first members to this site and a true TMS believer. That being said, be careful...

Yeah he's the best in the Midwest. Wrote book called "Unlearn your pain" many people on this web site have read his material and familiar with his TMS approach.

Trainert: I had a torn meniscus. I tried to TMS it away. I did go to Dr. Schubiner here in Michigan. He confirmed it needed surgery which I received and doing well since. Don't rule out physical condition on this one.

As an "oldtimer" I have made a conscious effort to not be on the board as consistently as years ago. I found myself somewhat OCDish and taking on the symptoms and pain board members were discussing. That's just a thought.

Brother Herbie, you have nailed it for me. I can be pain free but still "worry" about anticipating my back going out. This is rooted in my anxiety which after many years I have successfully equated it with my TMS. But I go through these bouts of "anticipatory" thoughts. It's like I get stuck...

This is going to sound strange since I am on the site now. But after reading this take 2-3 days and just do your normal TMS work and DON'T go to this or any other TMS support site. See what happens.

TT: I have lost your number and I would like to talk I'm not a techie guy so pm? But thank you for breaking down my questions. Helpful.

Blackdog: Read my post from yesterday. This is normal. This is the pattern. After 20 years this is the one area that still confuses me. But TMS is a life long recovery. The knowledge is the antibiotic. But the symptoms return when you least expect them. Do your personal psychological work and...
