At what point is it best to give up?

Ive been doing mind body therapy (including Sarno's) since 2003 got cfs and it's not helped me one bit.

I feel I've wasted so much time and money, every therapist has been happy to take my money and offer so much promises but it's never been helpful.

I tried on here a while ago and I got nowhere with that, this must happen to a lot of people, does anyone have any advice?

Thanks

 

Telling us about your life usually reveals a lot about why you contracted mind body syndrome.

I personally know why i got tms, i just dont yet know how to cure it. Life feels hopeless. I have moments of tremendous sadness. I dont go outside, i can no longer speak. Trust me when i say im suffering greatly. Just tell us your story. What got you here, what have you done to change?

 

When I do more activity I find it stressful and I crash for a week or so afterwards, had it since I was a kid

 

Why do you think you have tms?

 

Cfs is a mind body condition as far as I know

 

Indeed, but you dont just get it out of nowhere. This is why its useful to tell us a little about yourself. If you dont have an idea why you got TMS, its likely you arent aware of the things youre currently doing upholding it.

 

I was diagnosed with cfs at 16, 2 years after parents divorce but in hindsight I had cfs ten years before that, ice been doing various mind body healing therapies for the last 25 years but still not been able to deal with it

 

Personality traits?

 

Curious -- Flip the roles here. How would you respond if someone you really care about shared this and asked you this question?


--wishing you well, there are amazing results reported here on the forum on a regular basis. This stuff really works; it's a bit different for everybody, but with open-mindedness, persistence, honesty, and vulnerability, most find results.

 

I'd feel ok about it, why would I not?

I wouldn't know how to help them but nothing about someone asking a question like this would offend me, I don't quite understand why it would.
