My TMS Recovery Plan

Hi, Sita,

Journaling worked for me one time. Back in 2017. I wrote about whatever made me mad day by day. I also had a really bad job and I ended up leaving it. That might have helped too.

I have read a couple good books about journaling: The Meaning of Truth: embrace your truth. create your life. by Nicole J. Sachs, LCSW and

THE MINDBODY SYNDROME (TMS): A Path to Recovery & Freedom https://a.co/d/8numglQ
By Dr. Kevin Martillo Viner

Both are really good and a little different than what Dr. Sarno suggested. I’m going to keep working at it.
I feel somehow its part of the recovery process. But right now I’m still trying to recover.

When I was a child and had fears, I repressed them.

Sita, I had an instant gut reaction to this statement. Why the hell did you repress your fears as a child?

I ask because fear is not an emotion. It is a reaction to adversity. Everything you are describing is a reaction to adversity. You are still on the surface of shallow reactions.

The emotion that @AnitaV is talking about, but which you are not seeing, is in the answer to my question.

It doesn't really matter why I repressed my fears/reactions. It's irrelevant. Many children freeze when evil is done to them. Adults too. It's a well known fact. I don't want to go into it anyway.

A reaction to adversity. Yes, probably. I'll think about it. Thanks.
