YES! stopping all forms of physical treatments is a must yet i still see a some people posting on here how they are still going to physical therapy or chiropractors etc....big mistake. it seems you are on the right track. keep progressing and building confidence doing physical activities...

i can relate to a lot of that. especially the frustration of seeing multiple doctors and getting multiple different diagnosis of structural problems or 'trigger points' etc... for me a key point has been focusing on eliminating the fear of the pain and not letting it dictate what you do. that...

so today was kind of blahh. i tried my best not to let the pain get the best of me, but at the same time being kind and forgiving to myself. i have laid in bed a lot but have also been up and moving around a lot. i got my laundry done, cleaned up all my dishes and took a shower. all of those are...

so it's the morning after. the night was pretty rough. was up on and off all night, hard to get comfortable. the pain was pretty severe any time i tried to move. earlier this morning i was really letting the fear get the best of me. now it's later in the morning, pain is still there but not as...

oops, meant to post this in another section. sorry.

so a little back story. i first learned about TMS in dec 2015/jan 2016 and began applying the things i learned from Readin sarnos books and on here and had steady, if not quick, results. by february i was back to mild exercise, by march i was back to lifting weights and by May i was in full...

mine didn't became a major problem when i was 22, to the point it consumed my entire life. but after learning about tms i can look back and see i had TMS symptoms all throughout my teen years, maybe even earlier. like i had low back pain and discomfort from the time i was 15 or so and would...

hmmm i'm confused (and it sounds like you might be also) if this was an actual injury or just TMS pain? i think that's the first thing you need to determine. you were pretty vague on the timeline of all of this but it sounds like you recovered in a few days? an actual muscle tear would take...

i think sometimes it's best to progress slowly when it comes to exercise, especially when you aren't 100% convinced it's all just TMS pain. for example if you are comfortably running two miles before the pain kicks in then just stick with 2 mile runs for a while. do 2 mile runs twice a week...

exactly this. you might want to vent later in another way such as journaling or talking to a friend who doesn't mind hearing your problems.

the pain in your leg sounds like TMS. the pain has the TMS hallmark of moving around. i've had the same experience during recovery as i'm sure a lot of others have had where the pain jumps around and it can really start to play tricks on your mind and even make you doubt that it is TMS at all...

yes it is hard to get over the fear of the pain but in my experience it is such a key part. i think something that has helped me a lot is to not 'hide' from the pain. don't alter your posture or movements to not feel the pain.

i think we all have our doubts and especially so in the beginning. i would look for signs that point to TMS like if the pain moves around or if it seems to come and go. one thing that stuck with me that (i believe) Dr. Sarno said was with a real injury such as a broken leg, the pain wouldn't...
