night

Hi! I always wake up during the night atleast once to go to the bathroom and I think it’s interrupting my sleep. I tend to get tired and sleepy during the day, but more active during the night. I could even fall asleep while driving. I took a sleep apnea test not so long ago and doc...

I have been battling various TMS symptoms for years that come and go and change shape and form all the time. However one thing i have noticed is a constant… it’s always worse for me in bed at night. no matter what the “symptom” is, it seems to rear its head when i’m trying to go to sleep and...

Hello there - I've looked around the forum for a story similar to mine, but haven't found one that really fit, so here goes... In the early 2000s, I suddenly started having terrible recurring back pain, which would flare up every few months for no apparent reason and leave me bedridden for...

Like many TMS’ers, I’ve had shifting symptoms, but as with my post on “fragmented sleep” I recovered from Night Sweats with possibly a non-TMS technique. The Night Sweats were so bad, that my pyjamas, pillow and bed sheets were drenched as if somebody had tipped a full bucket of water on to the...

During the evening yesterday my pain was 0% and my lower back, leg and hip muscles were very relaxed. I felt really good. Not so emotional either. When falling asleep I woke up within minutes from extreme fear. I dreamt something (I don't remember what now) that frightened the hell out of me. I...

Hi everyone, I was just scrolling down the comments on the last Pain Free You Youtube video (they have been really helpful to me), and someone was talking about how mouth breathing at night is reaaaally bad for you and can explain a lot of symptoms, e.g. heightened anxiety, poor-quality sleep...

I am new to this site and am working through the structured educational program. This site is amazing and I want to thank all who have worked hard to make it and maintain it. Just wanted to share something that I have found helpful. I checked out Dr. Sarno’s book, Healing Back Pain as an audio...

Hi, I was diagnosed with TMS not long ago and the pain has been ongoing for over 2 years. Right lower back and right leg up until the knee. The issue is that the pain manifests in a programmed manner, at midnight or after a few hours of sleep every single night (a tylenol before going to bed...

Hi all, I'm just wondering if anybody has any experience with nightly sweating. I wake up once or twice a night somewhere between damp and soaking. And this is despite it being about 40 degrees F, window open, light blankets, fan going. I'm a 27 year old male, so it's not menopause (most of...

This forum is so helpful. Thank you. I've been doing so well during the day. Went for a bike ride last weekend for the first time in 5 years! Overall I've had much less pain. Except at night when it flares up and I can't find a comfortable position. It's much harder to stay positive and remember...

Hi New to this forum but have read Dr Sarno's books and a lot about TMS. I've suffered of anxiety for the past 2.5 years. I am 32 now, married and 3 kids. Initially pain was on the left side of the chest. After months of working on it, it moved to the right side of my stomach. Then it went...
