I've had so many revelations about myself, but I noticed I've been still searching deeper and deeper for answers. As of this moment in time, I have to be 100% honest with myself: I've always had the answers. I've ALWAYS known my issues stemmed from anxiety and fear (and oversensitized nerves)...

The more I understand the mind body connection, the more I realize there's actually nothing to get rid of. I've spent 13 years trying to get rid of anxiety and 9 years trying to get rid of neck tension/pain (and all of the issues that developed in between). After my last post yesterday, I...

So I am dealing with stress coming through at night. Specifically stress dreams and weird dreams that ultimately wake me up. How do you recommend dealing with this stress during the day? Journaling? Thinking about it/sitting with it and acknowledging it? For example, I am stressed and worried...

Really nice, really well-explained, and usefully short article in the NYT today! Take particular note of the two statistics at the start...

I've been around here for a while as I sought to deal with what I thought was IBS (constipation, bloating, gas), and, after an endoscopy a few years back that came up clear, this was confirmed by the doctors. I've always been open to the mind/body theories so I have had no resistance to...

Namaste, I have had IBS/Constipation/Migraine/Backache for about 20 years, and none since the last 20 days. Here are my 2 cents - Background - Had a difficult childhood, my personality was not emotionally integrated. Had difficulty in dealing with people and situations; so digestive problem...

So real quick I'm very anxious stressed and worried about my ears after what my coworker did. I was on the phone talking to my girlfriend when he drove right up to me and held the horn on a car and I think my tinnitus might have spiked as a result and now I worried it might be worse then it...

I am wondering if anyone have seen stress illness present itself as burning, itchy, crawly, prickly, stinging, biting, cold, hot, a cold wet feeling, a hot steam feeling, pinching, stabbing, electric zap or shock, nerve pain, tickling, numbness, pins and needles, wire brushed feeling, tingling...

Hey all, I'm a long-time experiencer of stress disorder. Some would say TMS, some would say stress or anxiety disorder. (Most symptoms have been CNS related.) I've made great progress over the years by using the foundations of Claire Weeks, Sarno, other TMS greats, Paul David, Jim Folk, etc...

Dr. Sarno is more and more validated by the researchers and medical community. I know that auto-immune disorders are not exactly TMS, but Dr. Sarno mentions a strong relationship. Here is further confirmation: “Association of Stress-Related Disorders With Subsequent Autoimmune Disease”...
