courage

I’ve been on the forum 18 months. I was working on my TMS before that, but my efforts and knowledge drastically increased from forum participation. I started here hopeless, afraid, severely depressed and in pain. Dr. David Hanscom calls it The Abyss. There’s no better word for it. Today, I’m...

How how how in the world did I get stuck in my house for a year?! How did I allow myself to believe that my life was over? Dr. David Hanscom calls this The Abyss. It’s the black hole of despair and destruction that TMS can put you in, and the entire thing is built on lies. First, you believe...

Today I kept asking myself what emotion I was feeling. Up came anger, sadness, and I realized I felt them in my body all the way down to my belly...but not in my hips and legs. Guess what? The very areas that are stiff and numb! I understood "TMS" at a deeper level. Yesterday I decided to start...
