neck pain

I found TMS literature almost 10 years ago when I turned 30. Started with Dr Sarnos Healing Back Pain, and have read many others(SteveO,Gordon,etc). It's been a while since I've had pain that has been consuming. Perhaps around 6 weeks ago I started getting tension headaches and neck pain. I had...

Hi there, I have severe neck pain and strange symptoms all over. I have tight spastic legs at times and other times they are weak with nerve pain. I dont have pain radiating down my arms. Sometimes I have burning all over, sometimes I have moments where I get random nerve pains all over. I...

Hi everyone, I wanted to share another interview I did with Jen Johnson at Thought by Thought Healing. I speak about how the loss of my brother at age 38 led to many TMS symptoms. I also speak about TMS symptoms from parenting and how my Christian faith also caused symptoms as well. Hope it helps!

Hi, my name is Alan Yacavone and I am a Vice President at The New York Times. I recently submitted my personal and very miraculous TMS recovery story to the “Well” & “Modern Love” sections of the Times, which they are currently reviewing for publication. In the event that my story is not...

As far as I can recall, my early TMS symptoms began in late 2017. To my ignorance at the time, my perfectionistic, self-critical, and people pleasing personality pushed my stress levels to the extreme. Juggling a busy corporate job and working on my side-business until late at night, I started...

Hi, New here, hoping to find some answers while waiting for scan results. About 2 1/2 months ago I was having a break at work, moved to get up and suddenly experienced severe pain in my right shoulder and cramping down the arm. “This happened about a week after getting over a bad chest virus” I...

Hey everyone, After years of trying to solve the mystery of my chronic pain, I came across a comment on Reddit about TMS. I immediately read Sarno's book and resonated with it deeply. Despite this, I still don't know if this is TMS. I was hoping to tell a bit about my story, and if anyone has...

Hey everyone. I am so happy and relieved to have found this forum a couple of weeks ago. I’ve been doing some digging around on here and so many of the stories you’ve been kind enough to share have quelled my anxiety. I’m looking for some validation, please on what I really think could be TMS...

Hello everybody, I am infinitely appreciative of you taking the time to read my story. Let me start by letting you know that I am a 24 year old male. My concern about my health began when I started having panic attacks in March 2023 which at the time I did not know that it’s a panic attack and...

Hi There, I am a 32 year old.. life was perfect, I had an amazing social life, family, amazing career, physically extremely fit ...but life took a turn..10 months ago... - I think i have had high performing anxiety for years (undiagnosed) and i was always told that I am a sensitive person. -A...

Yesterday I did loads of TMS work. I meditated twice. Had an afternoon nap. Stayed present. Had a bath. Read a few pages of Mind Body Prescription. Tried to stay relaxed and not overthink. Read a few success stories which give a bit of hope. Thought I might have had a bit of a breakthrough...

Hi everyone, I recently went and got a back molar extracted at the dentist a week ago, and ever since then I have been feeling pain in my neck and shoulders. My left shoulder sits up higher and leans forward. My posture just feels so off and it's driving me crazy! I can feel that I am having...

Hi Has anyone experienced terrible headaches where it feels like your head is being squeezed in a vice? I’m pretty sure the headaches are from my mega tight and sore to touch neck. I saw the doctor and he checked my eyes, blood pressure etc but couldn’t see anything wrong. Blood test were...

Hey guys, figured since I’d posted before about my wrist/hand/forearm pain, that I’d come back an update on my TMS journey. So for what must have been around 4 months, I had pretty much constant RSI pain. One weekend, I literally just decided I’d had enough, the pain didn’t make enough sense...

Hi all I’ve had chronic back pain for over 3 years. Over the last 6 - 8 weeks I’ve been in a really bad spell and I really can’t see any way of this improving. The pain flare up started when I went on a flight to a holiday in Cape Verde. The holiday wasn’t enjoyable for me because I was...

I’m 21 years old and am going on 2 years of back/neck pain. I’m very certain what I have is TMS. Two years ago, I suffered an “injury” in my knee that persisted for about 6 months. I saw pts and doctors and all they told me was rest and gave me exercises. I couldn’t run 10 feet without being...

Hi all! I discovered The Way Out by Alan Gordon last year and have been battling IBS, Rectal Pain, and neck pain. What’s weird is I’ve been working on myself for about 7 months now and it’s been helping a lot except for the neck pain. I’m starting to question whether I should go get another x...

Hello all. I hope all is well. Today, I want to share my “success story” per the title of his post. Ironically, I’ve been healed now for about the same length of time that I was chronically ill. I resisted publishing my testimony sooner, even though I was a semi-active member on this forum for...
