    Not sure if this could be Central Sensitisation

    I know CS isn't exactly the same as TMS, but this is pretty much the only active forum for stuff like this I can find, and they are very similar so hopefully I can find info about it here. 18, male, had anxiety for ages but only been real bad over last 2 years. Mainly health anxiety. From 5...

    I don't want to get rid of pain anymore

    The more I understand the mind body connection, the more I realize there's actually nothing to get rid of. I've spent 13 years trying to get rid of anxiety and 9 years trying to get rid of neck tension/pain (and all of the issues that developed in between). After my last post yesterday, I...

    Pain substituted with health anxiety

    So throughout the past months I have slowly been able to get rid of most of my pain symptoms using tms methods. However, the pain symptoms have gotten replaced by horrible health anxiety regarding other health conditions and it honestly almost feels worse than the previous pain. I know the...

    Getting Annoyed: Severe Anxiety and Panic Waves With No Cause

    Just about fed up of all of this. 2019 - pneumonia, then chronic fatigue and depression which went away by itself in Feb 2020. House-bound due to recovery from pneumonia and poor air quality from bushfire smoke. Then covid lockdown. In the middle of which, I developed appendicitis. In hospital 3...

    I honestly think TMS is BS

    I don't like feeling this way, because I know it's my pain talking, but I feel like I just want to die and get this life over with it. This is my truth and I accept it. I've been a worrier my whole life. After a night of smoking weed (age 19), I developed panic disorder and my life took an awful...

    Anxiety / TMS

    Does anyone think that TMS is the physical product of psychological anxiety and or perceived fear?

    Stage Fright

    Hello TMS community, I am a professional pianist and have long suffered stage fright. I am calm and in control when playing alone but as soon as eyes are on me (depending on the situation), I often get anxious. And for me (and all tms people), anxiety=pain. Nobody knows about my struggle except...

    How to really address anxiety spikes?

    So I feel like I’ve been making some progress as my pain has lessened and my courage in facing the physical issues has increased. I used to live in fear of every twinge and I’m doing better about talking myself down and developing a mantra when I need to literally tell my brain to cut it out...

    Anxiety and Muscle tension

    Having had upper back pain and other upper back sensations for over two years this is my very simplistic take on this. I believe all this Pain in your back, feet, legs and arms etc is due to chronic/persistent muscle tension, driven by anxiety ( call it fear if you wish). You may not feel...

    If someone calls you anxious... remember this.

    Anxiety is the denial of the natural emotion of fear. Not only have they programmed you that you shouldn’t feel fear but also that you should be ashamed of fear. Bollocks!!! You are NOT dysregulated; THEY are. If someone calls you an anxious person, all they say is that they are WAY more...

    A MindBody Guide on Anxiety

    Hi all, Here's a guide with a mind-body approach to anxiety. The true freedom comes when we learn to accept our anxiety rather than try to get rid of it. We are transformed by what we accept. — Lama Govinda Much love, Angelos

    anxiety while reading

    I've asked about this before, but I'm still struggling with it. I get extremely anxious while reading, especially longer stuff ie novels. I get anxious about my heartbeat and the physical sensations of anxiety and, though I constantly try to "accept" these sensations and try not to control them...

    Short of breathe, corona or tms? Anxiety over the roof about it, I need help.

    I don’t know if I’m just out of shape, if I have the corona virus, or if it’s my tms. I have tms in the forum of chronic fatigue syndrome. I’ve been eating horrible the past month and staying home as well so maybe that has something to do with it. Does anyone else have shortness of breath that...

    Anxiety over no apparent purpose in life.

    Hello Dearest All, My 10+ year search for an insane post nasal drip problem sent me on a journey of frustration and powerlessness beyond anything I had ever experienced. That led to awful digestive issues which lasted a few years until I read in Steve's book, The Great Pain Deception, that it...
