electric sensation palm, need tips

Hi! im very curious how to unlearn an electric sensation in my palm. i have this since many years, never really bothered me but still didnt go away. No pain, nothing, just some weird electric shooting located just in my palm whenever i curl someting up. Like a fine thin line. It often comes also when my fingers get stretched or when i grip something. This does sound like carpal tunnel so its tms yea? But the methods to treat Tms dont really make sense to me in treating this. Thank you

 

Question:
Why does this bug you?
Does it interfere with anything in your life?
You have no pain, nothing, and you've lived with it for many years.
Our bodies are not perfect. You will not ever be without some sort of sensation in the body. It's not rational to think that your body will be perfect without some sort of "something".
Part of TMS theory is not worrying, thinking, or giving another thought to these sensations, and not attributing any kind of "disfunction" or name like Carpel Tunnel Syndrome. TMS theory also says go live your life, and stop sweating this small, insignificant and meaningless thing that isn't effecting anything in your life except that you give it attention and allow it to create anxieties.

 

it does interfere with my workout, when curling dumbels for examples, rowing etc. i do worry a bit about to be honest( catastrophizing about working out in the future and so on)yea our bodys are not perfect, its just a rly weird feeling

 

ah yea my anxiety did strike back today about this symptom, i have some kind of really bad health anxiety and i was working out a lot again. Im very scared/catastrophizing of not being able to work out anymore in the future because of my various body symptoms and then not being perfect, not being attractive enough, not lovable.......Its realy bad when im thinking about it, the need to be perfect and attractive, its much pressure. Who cares if i go swim instead of weightlifting, but in my mind there is only one way -.-. So yea thats the anxiety under it

 

This video really helped me a lot on health anxiety issues

 

Keep in mind that the weirder your symptoms are, the more likely they are TMS. I had all kinds of neuropathic sensations in my hands and a firm diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome confirmed by several doctors and EMG, but, thanks to Sarno, it is all gone now. TMS method works!

 

I Missed this post. I have a nigh exact same situation.

I play guitar. Whenever I play early in the AM, at around the 15-20 minute mark, my left hand goes numb. Somewhere between an electric feeling and my hand being plunged in ice cold water. If I am writing songs (strumming) I ignore it and it goes away in about 3-5 minutes. If I am working on fingerstyle classical or something complicated where I need my fine feeling, I play until my playing suffers and then go and get another cup of coffee, read the news, let the dog out...it always goes away and it never returns. Even in an 8-10 hour day of playing guitar. ....Clearly a conditioned response...
I Imagine at some time I was going through something when that started? Now it's like Jan says...it's just a silly distraction...it is absolutely in the TMS family. I do use the TMS strategy of wondering what could have caused the original outbreak, but it has never come to me....maybe it isn't bad enough? I don't know how my unconscious works. It's just there and not bad enough to motivate a lot of inspection....
