Day 10

Hi all!
Just want to say thank you to everyone on this site. I started doing this program after I developed tension headaches after getting a lumba puncute. It has been really helpful and I have noticed an improvement in my headaches.

I was never a "headache person" before but I am anxious and can be perfectionistic. Did anybody else on this forum find relief with tension headaches?

I have found treating my headaches like a 3 years old to be helpful - as it was suggested in day 9. I also really liked day 7- not trying to obsess too much about being too good at recovering from TMS.

Thank you!

 

I recovered from chronic migraine headaches. You can read my success story on my profile or in the success stories sub-forum.

Welcome to the Forum and best wishes on your recovery journey.

 

Hi Sangria, and welcome! I used to have frequent headaches - what I called "5-Ibuprofen headaches" that started from my neck - clearly tension. I stopped having them after discovering Dr. Sarno and doing the SEP, but there was one occasion where I developed a screaming headache that was so intense, it literally scared the s**t out of me. Here's the story: http://tmswiki.org/forum/bookmarks/137/view-item (Bookmark | TMS Forum (The Mindbody Syndrome))

These days, if I develop a little bit of a tension headache, I don't usually do anything unless it starts to distract me from enjoying my day. One Ibu or a single Tylenol is all it takes to banish it now.

This is great stuff.
