I agree that internal conflicts, how we may show anger to someone instead of compassion or love can cause TMS.
The friendlier we are to each other, the better.

Thanks, Ellen for pointing out the "should" in Raj's post - this is a clue, isn't it?
The next step, Raj, is to forgive yourself for your behavior! We are only human, our brains automatically protect us in our interactions with others, because our brain is always scanning for danger - in other words, our brains are behaving negatively unless we are very conscious and aware and working hard to NOT behave negatively. This is not easy!
As long-time member Lori has told us many times, don't "should" on yourself!

You're on the right track, Raj.

I agree that it definitely can. Anything that "winds you up" inside can cause TMS. Sometimes listening to your body to see if our heart is beating a little faster, signaling the engagement of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) and the stress response is enough to figure out if TMS is engaged. Other times, you just have to trust yourself and attentively listen to your conscious emotions and feelings.
In all of the posts I've read, so much of the key to TMS treatment has been figuring out what "winds us up," and then allowing ourselves to "unwind," so that we can dissipate our tension. Tension, after all, is the first word in Dr. Sarno's original name for the disorder!
