rsi

Hey guys, I’ve followed the forum and have been aware of the work of Sarno, Schubiner etc for a while now. I’m very much of the belief that pain and other weird, yet not so wonderful, symptoms can be the result of psychological processes. I just wondered if some of you who know a bit more about...

I've been struggling with tendonitis and nerve problems in both arms for 2 years. I'm only 20 but at the time of onset was gaming with a terrible position and playing lots of drums and piano. I find it extremely frustrating that throughout this forum the views on rsi and tendonitis are...

So I was in a pretty bad state the past few days after reading Dr. Sarnos's book. I was still really unsure f my RSI symptoms were TMS although I desperately wanted to believe it was. After agonizing overwriting my college paper and having to sit down at the dreaded keyboard my hands, wrists...

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...

I never thought I'd post my success story here. I spent years doubting mindbody medicine - and quite frankly, these forums - and it wasn't until yesterday that I realized that not only have I been completely healed, but I was never injured at all. And I owe a deep debt of gratitude to the pain I...

Hello, For the past 6 months I've been dealing with debilitating RSI in both of my hands. It started with a strange stiffness in my left thumb which also coincided with elbow pain. I assumed the two were related and carried on, as I was able to complete my work using my right hand (I work at a...

Unfortunately during the chat a few weeks ago someone told me that the therapists don't respond to the ''ask a therapist'' thread anymore. I was wondering if there are people on this forum who can share their experiences with trigger finger caused by TMS. Does it exist and what are your...

Hi! I usually never post stuff on the Internet, but as this wiki played such an important role in my own recovery, I feel like I should tell my story here. Maybe there is a person out there who needs to hear exactly what I have to talk about, and if it helps just one person, it’s worth doing...

Hi, I was wondering if people with RSI like symptoms recognize my issue. Im doing pretty well lately with my believe in TMS but i notice i doubt more when i use the pc more and get more pain. It's especially in my upper right trapezius and the back of the trapezius. Its just plain pain which...

I know CS isn't exactly the same as TMS, but this is pretty much the only active forum for stuff like this I can find, and they are very similar so hopefully I can find info about it here. 18, male, had anxiety for ages but only been real bad over last 2 years. Mainly health anxiety. From 5...

Hey guys! I have been following Alan Gordon's recovery programme for TMS manifesting itself as RSI/tendonitis in both of my hands. I've experienced a reduction in pain in just 3 weeks of the programme, and I'm back to doing most of the activities I love - yay! :) However, when I do the big one...

Hello, first please excuse my English and the somewhat chaotic structure of my post. I am not a native English speaker and am currently in a very bad state of mind not able to fully concentrate. My issues started about 5 years ago. Since then, it is a vicious cycle of physical issues and...

For well over a year, I struggled with RSI pain in both my arms. I couldn't use my computer or my phone for longer than 2 hours a day without the pain getting worse. At one point, even simple things like stirring food or applying mascara made my arms burn. The pain was all I could think about...

For those of you who recovered from pain while typing/mousing, did you gradually increase the amount of typing you would do each day? Any tips?

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...

Hello. This is my first post here, and I'm not even sure if this is the correct place to post this. In that case I hope that someone notifies me about this. I have had a huge amount of issues regarding different types of chronic pain lately. People that I know in real life have no clue about TMS...

Hi all, I'm a new forum member. I want to share my story and hopefully a journey to become pain-free. Firstly, I apologize for the very long post, but typing this is really cathartic to me. TL;DR: I'm a long-term RSI sufferer, but attributing my pain to TMS and shifting my thinking to help me...
