success story

@miffybunny and I were invited to talk to Dr. Dan Ratner on his popular podcast Crushing Doubt. The video is here:

Virtual screening of the film about Dr. Schubiner and his method. If you did not have a chance to watch it yet - - do it. I watched it 3 times, and each time I learn something new. And I also get goose bumps, so emotional, sincere and inspiring the stories of healing are...

Hey guys, I am looking for some PF success stories to reduce fear and get perspective. Anyone have videos or stories to post? Preferably videos.

I dreamt of the day I could write a success story on any online forum and after all of the skepticism I once had about Dr. Sarno, I can't believe it ended up being this forum! I am sharing my story in hopes of inspiring people who may be experiencing severe hand pain/RSI (or any type of...

Found this extremely compelling and hopeful, maybe because I can so relate to it. Interview with Dr. John Stracks, a mind-body doc in Chicago. Patient: a fifty-something year old guy, very active, started developing minor physical issues but became very anxious about. Physical issues started...

An easy one: Andy B's story. It's kickass. I tend to be drawn to the ones I can relate to, i.e. TMS in the same parts of the body. But there are a lot of great ones.

Hi, someone else posted about this but I have not been able to find success stories that involve the ulnar nerve tingling and pain in hands (I have pain in all my fingers including median inervated ones, neck/trapezius tightness/pain, allodynia in palm, hypersensitize elbow). This is all from...

https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/12/20/to-break-the-cycle-of-pain-its-mind-over-matter/ (Beating Back Pain) an excellent article that might give others hope.

Below is a link to a personal success story that the writer attributes to PNE (short for pain neuroscience education). Lorimer Moseley instead calls it contemporary pain science--perhaps because many people with chronic pain find the word "neuroscience" scary and off-putting. On the surface...

Hey everyone! I just wanted to post an update after almost a year since my original post. At that time, I had come back from a serious low point that kept me completely bedridden, but was still far from being able to return to work or school: I was plateaued in a cycle of fear and symptoms that...

Hi everyone! I wanted to share my success story of chronic pain in the fourm of “cfs and fibromyalgia”. I want to say before I say anything else. You got this. You are winning by even knowing about this work and it’s not easy and we all know that. But trust me, life is beautiful after pain. To...

Hi, Among many other symptoms and pains I have for more than a year, the one that disturbs me the most is joint & muscle stiffness. The feeling of pressure in my upper body, and the difficulty of raising my arms.. Especially in the morning but sometimes during the day too, and the evening. It...

Jessica Shahinian suffered terribly from over 20 symptoms that left her crippled. Not only has she recovered she is now an executive director at the PPDA. Amazing video link attached.

I feel a little ridiculous posting this but since I have fully dived in to TMS after 10 years of straddling the fence and googling cures and excuses ..I got some great help and advice from a lot of people on this site I have turned the page don't get me wrong the fear is still there but slowly...

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...

This is going to be a long and interesting timeline of my life and how I’ve gone through different types of pain like backache, headache, chronic Insomnia, chronic fatigue, sciatica, tingling nerves in the body, numbing hands, depression, anxiety, fibromyalgia. I’d say I’ve recovered 95%. I...

i havent posted in a long time. Got rid of back pain ect. Now its burning feet and soreness i guess its called metatarsalgia and yes i looked it up and Sarno and Steve O speak about it. Just venting my symptom imperative frustrations....

I’ve made incredible progress since I ruptured a disc in my neck in 2005, which lead to chronic myofascial pain (aka TMS). After more than 14 years of pain (and 12 years of journaling and writing) I finally just published my memoir about my healing journey: The Invisible Key: Unlocking the...

Re-uploaded the series on youtube since the links were no longer working properly...... A few months ago I finally drew up the courage to make a presentation sharing my experience of dealing with back pain and other nerves pains that eventually lead me to Dr. Sarno's body of work. I dealt with...

My friend Octavia has come so far in her TMS journey, it's absolutely breathtaking. In 2017, she was a spinning instructor leading a very active life when a series of personal tragedies touched off a chain reaction that totally shut down her body, leaving her unable to move without pain, or...
