So I’ve recovered from a bunch of TMS-symptoms throughout the years, but I’m still somewhat caught in the symptom imperative so I’m clearly not completely out of the woods yet. That said, the intensity of the symptoms are not as high as before, and I’ve been able to take a lot of my life back...
So. My “thing” that I have always identified my… well, identity with has been pelvic symptoms. I was diagnosed with pudendal neuralgia, vulvodynia and IC which I have basically 90% healed from thus far. I have some floating symptoms but nothing that stops me from living my life. I’ve been doing...
Hey everyone,
First off, like so many others out there, I've had TMS symptoms my entire life. I remember the chronic ear infections and allergies so bad I would have to come home from school, along with a general feeling of insecurity and unease.
When I was in my twenties, the digestive/IBS...
So, for the past year I have had on and off vulvar itching. It feels like needle pricks (like if you’ve ever gotten bitten by a bug or fleas or something) and general tickling/bugs crawling. I notice that if I am doing something that takes my mind off of it, I don’t have itching but if I am...
Hi there!
I hope all of you are well. I horrible widespread TMS after finishing HS (intense shoulder pain, diffuse nerve pain, back pain, brain fog, etc). After discovering the TMS literature, I embarked on the long road to recovery and resolved most of my symptoms. That said, one symptom that...
For six to seven months of my life, I was experiencing disabling pain 24/7. It started out with back/neck pain and a short term case of RSI several years prior. During the latter half of 2019, these symptoms would continue, as well as manifest into many other symptoms like pain in my feet, among...
How do I go about healing autoimmune issues (Hashimotos) or eczema?
I have a hard time applying TMS healing principles to these conditions even after reading a few books of Dr. Sarno and Steve Ozanich. I am not quite sure how to go about it. Should I ignore the conditons altogether? Does...
I had a disability of my arms and ankles for twelve years, diagnosed as a repetitive-stress injury. I also developed some fatigue and soreness in my back after a while. Unlike many other people, I did not have severe pain except early on, because I managed it with a system of time limits on arm...
Is Raynaud's TMS? Just started having it. Also, I read that eczema could be TMS. I had some eczema to begin with but since starting to work on TMS, I am getting eczema all over. Anyone been successful getting rid of it? My biggest issue is still fatigue. Any advice is appreciated!
Following a hot water pipe burst and 10-day flood event at our historic home while we were in Florida with our family, there was a 6-month cleanup period during which I max’d out my restoration efforts and stress while minimizing sleep. I spent little time with friends and loved ones and...
I've been getting skin irritations and they always seem to be where there is hair. It started on my scalp, and then sometimes around facial hair, and now I have it on my chest. It seems to peel after a while, and I have not had any major sun exposure.
Can this be TMS?
(Subnote to Mods...
hello fellow TMS’ers.
I’m still understanding and learning about TMS. I am journaling and reading! Something I’m trying to understand is when I do journal about my past or present or when I’m around a situation that is upsetting or stressful or even exciting I feel it on my skin. It comes in...
I came upon this article in New Yorker Magazine by chance. It is September 26 issue, article is Twilight, about a woman who suffered terribly from light sensitivity for 10 years and cleared it with meditation. I am wondering if anyone here read the article and what do people here think about it...
I am a 47-year old man and have lived in Los Angeles with my wife for twenty years. I am a happy person, friendly, and think I have a pretty good sense of humor. I was raised an only child in a small town on the East Coast. I had kind parents, a good education, and never really battled any...
For the last few months I have experienced a pretty intense fatigue/ general weak feeling, widespread muscle twitching as well as random aches and pains in different joints.
Today as I am writing this, these things persist, but I wanted to bring something else up...
Around 2 months ago I...
Dear All,
I've been following this forum and the wiki for a while now. After a few years of painful RSI, I managed to get rid of it completely using the techniques by Sarno and the wiki. It was amazing! Reading Sarno's books, I recognised a lot of other mind/body ailments I had throughout the...
Hi Everyone,
There's been about a week between my day 5 and 6...I read on a post, not sure who wrote..maybe Ozanich, that is was OK to take time between the daily program, if needed. This was a great relief as I found myself generating some tension to keep to it strictly. Also, day 5 was...
From reading Levine's Waking the Tiger, I can see now that my TMS pain originated in the trauma of a horrendous fall I took out bouldering one night just after I took a new technical writing job at Tektronix Corp. in 1989. I recall being really mad that night about getting suckered out of my old...
