    In my 18th year of overall body pains and symptoms, I firmly promised myself to not behave like ‘ Sherlock Holmes( 🕵️‍♀️ detective)anymore now.
    It adds to my stress and I want my stress to down size so just accepting the flares and accept that that’s where I am now .
    Always shifting my mindset to positive!
    Makes this whole process less frustrating!
    The fact that the symptoms eb and flow is extra proof that it’s not structural ..
    And of course using the calm response you teach us!
    Thanks for the video Dan!
    Have a lovely Friday you and everyone!🙏💕💕💕

      An anxiety flare up is no different than a pain flare up. The concepts in this video can help with anxiety too. Anxiety is definitely a TMS equivalent.

    After reading and listening to all the things about TMS, at the beginning of my journey, I would try to identify the "why", but I could NEVER find the "reason". I've learned to accept that, for what ever "reason", my symptoms will ebb and flow. "Why" doesn't matter. I just address my awesome brain. 🤚😊❤
    (It does make me wonder if I'm the only one though, because this seems to be the consensus of the TMS community. But that doesn't really matter to me either, because I know I don't have to address anything other than my brain)

      I love the cicadas too. They remind me of my childhood. Which ever tree they were in, we would go touch the tree and the chirping would stop. We were in awe every time it happen. My granddaughters and I have been fortunate enough to observe a couple emerging from their shells, this summer. SO cool. But I can see how it could get on someone's nerves! I'm so glad I found how to use these methods for my symptoms, because I don't believe I would have been able to keep my grandchildren this summer nor enjoy their company.

Crazy symptoms i haven’t had in months!

    • @PainFreeYou
      @PainFreeYou  Před 2 lety +4

      when symptoms go away, anxiety can take the place of the symptoms. Why? Because the brain is still hyper vigilant and in the absence of symptoms the brain can create worry, fire up the stress response and anxiety is the result.
      Anxiety is not dangerous and isn't a new problem to solve. Treat the anxiety like any other TMS symptom. With calm reassurance, clarity that you are okay. An anxiety flare is just like a pain flare. The concepts in this video can work for anxiety.

      If there is a legitimate infection, stressing about it will not help it be handled. When in the stress response, the immune system is suppressed and doesn't operate as efficiently. There is NO downside to a calm, reassuring response and stressing less about it all.

      If symptoms arise, a calm response and not showing concern for the symptoms is a great message of safety. Noticing the stress building and being very clear with your brain that you are NOT in any danger can send the right message from the intelligent portion of the brain. Combining the right messages of safety with a calm response to any symptoms will teach the brain we are okay. Consistent messages of safety can help. It's more than just what we say.

    Really useful video Dan, thank you. Can I ask a question I've been curious about. This is a journey of ups and downs, but did you / your clients consciously notice when the pain stops? Or is it such a slow process it's not actually perceptible?

    • @PainFreeYou
      @PainFreeYou  Před 2 lety

      Yes, we definitely notice when the pain is not there. A more nuanced question may be - how do you know that the recovery is complete? That is more difficult because in the absence of pain, we worry about its return for a while. For me, it took a while before the fear of pain returning was no longer present.
