    Powerless? Nope

    Our bodies aren’t the only thing we are, but TMS would have us think so. We are so much more. We have magical powers, like the ability to: Love Forgive Encourage Motivate Inspire Dream Create Discover Don’t let your symptoms make you lose sight of all the power you still have. Unbelievably...

    If you need hope…

    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...

    Good tactic to trick your TMS brain!

    Lately, I’ve been emptying and loading the dishwasher every single day. At first, I was in so much pain standing up I couldn’t do it all. But I did what I could.

I've been pain free for two months but my strength in my tricep is just not coming back. This all started...

    Happiness insurance

    Once, long ago, I was a single mother, in a very desperate situation, struggling to make ends meet. I was so overwhelmed and forlorn, I really couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. I couldn’t see anything good coming out of my life’s circumstances. Then, one day, I said to myself...

    Newbie here, need advice on whether to discontinue physical strengthening with noted disuse atrophy

    I have been diagnosed with tendonitis of the forearm. My two main symptoms are general weakness of the forearm, and pain in the forearm. I believe TMS is the cause of the pain, but the weakness is clearly a physical matter. I have visible disuse atrophy at the tendon cluster just below the...
