    Reading DR. Sarnos book again, but for other reasons and not physical pain.

    I think I should re read sarnos book since I have been really tired mentally. Is feeling of burnout, tireness, mentally exhausted something related to tms? I start to blame it in many things. If you guys recommend any book let me know.
