    How to address anger

    I realized that the anger I've felt toward a close family member for most of my life (very deep and not always noticeable to me) is probably a huge cause of my TMS, most recently GI issues. I get so triggered by some of the things she says and does and feel such rage sometimes, which of course...

    How to tell someone to stop doing something?

    So I am identifying sources of stress (they are rather obvious actually), and one of them recently has been my roommate. I'm not sure why, because he didn't use to bother me in the past, but I seem to keep noticing things he is doing that annoy me, and they all relate to the idea that I...

    Day 30 What if anger isn't the main repressed emotion?

    Hi all, I'm sure this has come up before, so apologies for asking again, but I'm finding it difficult to recognise that anger is the main repressed emotion. Actually I have in a few journal entries about my past, but it's not this boiling all-consuming type of emotion about the injustices I...

    Processing Anger (for day to day events) ?

    The following just happened and I am wondering what I should have done: Went to the Revenue Collections Parking Division office. I was going to get a residential parking decal and they told me I had an outstanding ticket. As I asked a few very reasonable questions and the lady behind the...

    Anger

    Like a lot of people on here, I believe unresolved subconscious rage/anger and general life frustration is one of the main causes of my TMS. Some of it goes back to childhood and some is a result of my life experience, current experience, and even some related to having TMS itself. I have been...

    A question about what to do when you have identified a significant cause of anger

    I have an issue that causes me great anger and sadness. The unfortunate thing is I really can't change it right now. What am I suppose to do with these feelings in order to work through my pain? Can I still have the situation in my life and recover? The shortened version of my issue is that my...

    Anger, where art thou?

    Even before opening Sarno's book, I had noticed few years ago that I became emotionally very flat. Thanks to Dr. Sarno and TMS community, I am getting better. I re-discovered some of the lost feelings (fear, sadness, anxiety) and learned to bring them out and feel through them, letting them...

    Release of negative emotions, especially anger - need advice

    When stressful situations occur, what is the right way to release emotions? I had a conflict situation at work yesterday, caused by a chronic issue with an incompetent coworker whose incompetence continuously hurts my ability to do my work and impacts in the same way several dozens of other...

    Day 2 Are anger and sadness the same thing?

    I was just completing the activity that asks you to list things that make you angry and sad. I had a long list for sad but struggled to get anything for anger. I found that everything that I considered might be a source of anger seemed more like a source of sadness e.g. my husband is...

I picked an issue that has brought me physical pain all my life, my teeth, mouth, swallowing deficit (?), orthodontic treatments, facial pain, connected with the issue I journalled about yesterday.

    Alex B. How do I feel rage?

    What does internal rage feel like? Can you describe the sensations inside of the body? I am certain I have TMS (see http://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/hello.8106/) , but I'm not 100% sure what to look for inside of my mind/body. Whenever I am meditating and I 'let go' of all of my thoughts...

    Hi everyone, I had kind of a setback last week after having a GREAT week the week before... Last weekend was a rough one for me emotionally due to a discussion that came up with a friend of mine. The work week was also more hectic than usual with a lot of very detail-oriented tasks that I am...
