Lovely!!!! Thank you, Marls, for sharing this very special (looks perfect to me!) list of positives!

@westb , @Rainstorm B, and @Bodhigirl , I have read with great interest the posts from all of you above. You three are all people I follow as I find your words very wise. They certainly resonate with me! @Pemberley , thank you for your helpful posts too! Like you all, I find the news a huge...

Greetings Karina! If I had a daughter, I hope she would be as kind and compassionate as you are! Thank you so much for responding to me here in such a lovely way! I'm honored that you took the time to write! I find that "young" people can be very wise. ;) While I appreciate your being...

Yesterday in the Saturday chat here on the TMS wiki, there was a discussion about the Curable app. Our host, @Celayne(fka Cricket), mentioned that she likes the exercise called, "Identifying Emotions" on Curable and explained that to find it you go to the upper right hand corner of the Home page...

Thanks, Jan, for sharing that! I have just bookmarked it so that I can read it again and again! It makes so much sense! My childhood was also blessed, causing me to doubt a bit whether my symptoms were all TMS. I also have been looking for a time of "cure" rather than a recovery -- creating a...

Oh Hattie! You are such a brave and capable woma!. You’ll be fine living alone. My husband was 10 years older, so I understand what you mean about feeling that it is inevitable. I had never lived alone either and dreaded it as well. My husband had always taken care of me: took the kids places...

@Marls, you have such a wonderful sense of humor! Thank you! It helps so much to be able to laugh, especially on the tough days! Thanks for what you said about the perfectionist issue resonating with you! I like your quote: “You don’t have to be perfect to be perfect.” That says it all...

Thanks so very much @Lainey! Your encouragement and support mean so much to me! You hit the nail on the head when you knew that I needed to hear that life goes on. While I was caregiving, I never really thought about life after that, especially as I thought there was no “cure” for the pain and...

Oh @westb, Thank you so very much for your wisdom and for sharing your journey. It helps more than I can tell you! Thanks for understanding my pain over losing my dear Lily. I’m sorry that you know how that feels having lost your beloved cat, but it does help to know that someone gets it! Our...

It has always been amazing to me how much we all impact each other, often with no idea! I want three women to know how very much you have helped me this past week. @Marls, you answered my post right away. That meant so very much to me. I felt so vulnerable posting what I did and kept looking...

Thanks so very much, Marls! This is exactly what I need to hear! You give me hope. And I love your sense of humor! It means a lot to me that you responded to my post! Your question about whether I am "staying happily interested and busy in stuff" around me was a wake up call for me! I do feel...

Greetings to all of you who put so much time and effort into this wiki! I've not been here long, but have spent a lot of time reading your posts, doing Alan's wonderful program and admiring those of you who keep struggling to recover from TMS symptoms! Thank you for sharing in whatever ways you...

Oh my goodness, Bodhigirl! Having just read your post, I just want to reach across the miles and give you a huge hug! I am so sorry! By posting this here, you are reminding us all that "This too shall pass"! Of course you are sad! Of course you are grieving! Who wouldn’t be? May you and all...

Hi Marymouse! I'm so glad that you started this thread! I have never used nor understood affirmations. The word was blue in your post, so out of curiosity, I clicked on it and found this wiki's wonderful article! In case that link doesn't work for you, you can find it here...
