Hi Gojab, I am having the same issue, except I am further away from my "breakthrough" moment. I have also done psychotherapy, which is super helpful. I am out of money to pay for it until Jan 2021. Anyway, I have had a slide back into some negative brain patterns. So, I want to follow this...

I think I was meant to read this today. I have made a ton of progress with my mental and physical problems; and after a year of not being functional/able to work etc. I took a job in January. Then Covid happened. So, what I found out that I didn't know was my job would be 10 to 14 hrs a day...

ortho surgical nurse here - don't beat yourself up. Do be sure you have given the wrist time to heal. I would check in with your physical therapist & surgeon. I am not familiar w healing times for that surgery, but you mentioned maybe you had gone overboard a bit on using the wrist. I too...

Welcome to the forum. I have posted a bit here, but have been in therapy with a net based specialist group in mind/body/pain for a little over a year. I have had really great results. Still on the journey... my brain was stuck in the neural paths a long time... I have had good results with...

I felt better just writing it out too. The Corvid has been isolating even for me the introvert...

I just needed a place to share my difficulty at the moment. I have returned to work after a little over a year of debilitating depression. The work I love, but I am starting to think the workload is too much for me. I am teaching and it has been a workload during the semester that is 10 hr...

One of my biggest helps has been practicing yoga nidra, in fact it was after practicing for a while I was able to feel relaxed in my own skin/self soothe. I still get "attacks" times when I feel like I can't breathe...happened in IKEA the other day...omgosh so claustrophobic. But, I used some...

I came here a few months ago and posted a short synopsis of my story. I had a comment and suggestion to look at Byron Katie's work. I want to thank the person who reached out and suggested her. I have the, "who would you be without the thought" worksheet taped up in my work/home area. Asking...

Thank you for the welcome :) Katie's book would be a new one for me, I will definitely check it out. I know a lot of what ramps up my physical symptoms is "brain patterns."

Thanks Marcia, I appreciate hearing from you. I will check out some of the resources you mentioned. One thing I know is that I have a TON of trouble putting my needs first. It is definitely a journey, and not for the faint of heart.

Hello Wiki forum, I am a 54 yo female and have had TMS for what seems like forever. I was told I had fibromyalgia in my early 30s, and have been struggling w various somatization of my stress over the years. Compounding this, I work in a very high-stress field, so my nervous system seems to be...

First let me say, I am still struggling. I can relate to exactly your description. I moved not long ago & found I had books in 3 areas...self-help, science, & religion/spirituality/philosophy. It is like I am "addicted" to the process. I have been in therapy for a little over a year because I...
