Hello everyone. I wrote her before about my anal issues. I am trying TMS and until now without clear improvement. I am on cipralex that helps my mood and anxiety. Lately I was looking for other medication that can help to relax the muscles in the anal area. I was recommended taking a drug name...

When do we listen to our body? I know we need to listen to our emotions, but lets say for example, if you have pain, tireness or whatever and you feel like wanting to take a nap, or it hurts somewhere and wants to sit down. If the body screams to close your eyes or sit down. Should we listen?

Hey y'all, Just in case it's too painful to read, this post contains some descriptions of child abuse. Today the SEP recommended that I talk about the last time I spoke with my parents. This one was tough, I'll admit, especially after reading posts from parents who have been hurt by their...

Hi everyone, looking for some guidance on this one. I’ve known about TMS for 6 years now and healed my chronic pain and other random symptoms with this work. I’ve recently been getting more active and finally admitting to myself that I would like to be healthier and lose some weight as someone...

Article (there may be a paywall, unfortunately): https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/12/magazine/chronic-pain.html (Chronic Pain Is a Hidden Epidemic. It’s Time for a Revolution.) I read the above article this morning, in which the author and chronic pain sufferer details how chronic pain is...

So I have been writing in a journal about ( or more accurately "from" ) my feelings and problems, as per Nichole Sachs advice on her website. It's fairly helpful, getting more so over time... its makes me feel like I can hear myself think again, and I'm not allowing other people to come...

Hi I have been taking Prozac 30mg and everything has been going wonderful. But I read that it can cause permanent memory loss which is something I obviously wouldn’t want. Is this true?

Does anyone know whether Curable or Dr. Schubiner's book "Unlearn Your Pain" utilize journaling as part of their programs?? Thanks! Just doing a little research.

Everyone is talking about chronic lyme, that it is TMS. But they are talking about treated acute lyme with ATB and the TMS after. But what is lyme was never diagnosed (negative test although the symptoms were clear) so never treated? In case immunity took care of it but after 12 years a real...

I recently revisited a book that I bought a number of years ago called ‘Joy on Demand: The Art of Discovering the Happiness Within’ by Chade-Meng Tan. (My Kindle 'book shelves' are 'groaning' under the weight of all the mind/body books I have bought over the years, so I've been trying not to...

I have had a million tms issues. I even made a success story post recently so its no surprise im having yet another controversial health issue but as usual, a little encouragement or reality check is always a helpful step for me. I have had various eye issues for a while. Starting with...

Hi everyone, I just started my journaling journey, however i have a question. I already read a few posts that some of us are prone to 'editing' their journals, and i am certainly one of them so i promised myself not to do that. However- how about journaling about this TMS issue (including it)...

Has anyone else listened to this podcast? I thought it was a very respectful exploration of TMS in the context of people getting symptoms from others around them. It pays to listen right through all the episodes before judging what you think of it. The term they use is "conversion disorder"...

I said I planned on stepping away from the forum, but I wanted to get this off my chest and get support from you all. Fair warning, this is long. Over the past few weeks I've realized, although I no longer fear my pain symptoms (they come and go but IDGAF) , my anxiety and my OCD thoughts are...
