Yeah I have read many books on TMS, Steve O's, Fred Amir's, Georgie Oldfields, Sarno's. I can see that view point and while I deliberate again about what the doctor has said I will be default have a break. Its so tough though not having any real pain reduction. I am so incredibly sick of the...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone got to the stage I am at with their healing in TMS. I have thrown everything I have at this healing for the last 7 months and feel that in the long run I haven't really gotten anywhere. I have journalled tonnes, even honestly to the point of real pain (after...

I feel your frustration. I have a similar experience and the pain in my lower back is relentless too. I just have to keep telling myself that it's TMS and eventually the pain will begin to fade. I am still truggling with the belief of the diagnosis to be honest, so I am hoping that affirmations...

Hi IJB - you sound very similar to me. I have a wife I love and a great 2 year old son (only just on Halloween!) I have been working on this TMS since around the end of March when I first found out about it. It made quite a big difference in me, especially how I was feeling about the pain. I am...

Layla - I do follow a decent diet. I eat at least 5 pieces of fruit a day, have a vitamin C supplement, drink milk, each mostly fresh cooked meals with quite a lot of veg. I should hope its nothing to do with my diet. I have also managed to lose almost a stone and a half in the last year or so...

I don't have tender points. I do have a general feeling of being terrified, shitting myself, worrysome etc etc etc about my pain at the moment and am CONSTANTLY thinking about it. Trying so hard with mindfulness. I was extremely curious about the other cars lights, how they work, where they...

You always make it sound so simple Walt...

Walt, can I ask please... You always say that you journalled and found that it opened up that you needed to journal about your childhood. I have been journalling about everything I can possibly think of at the moment and I still haven't come close to healing. Did you recognise that this was...

I went for a jog this morning! Wow! The first time in 2 years. I have never really been running before anyway, but i jogged today. The important thing is that the running has not INCREASED my pain any more. I felt great and was quite emotional after I did it, but just then carried on walking. I...

I just got back from swimming even though I'm in the middle of a flare up. Fuck you TMS!

I can't comment to be honest pal with being in the middle of a flare up myself. Perhaps other more successful people will comment. Good luck though - I'm sure you'll be out soon.

Happy halloween - my son's second birthday as well ☺

So I am in the middle of some excessive doubt in this process... I'm rereading Steve O's brilliant book and have just finished the section again on how he recovered. His first jog and that faith and bravery it takes to do somsomething like that is astounding. I have walked and swam, but still...
