Iīve posted here earlier about my symtoms. Anyway I suffer from cpps and have since then developed IBS, back, jaw, knee and shoulder pain mainly in the joints. Iīve also read both of Sarnoīs books and also recently Amirs. I fit the whole description and everything points to TMS or at least an equivalent to it but Iīm having a hard time recovering. My pain comes and goes and therefore itīs hard to know when Iīm actually making progress. And how do you challenge pelvic pain!!?? It doesnīt make me disabled in the sense of doing regular stuff except for sex where it really has left me disabled but since I donīt have a girlfriend at the time itīs quite hard too challenge it in that aspect and it doensnīt seem like the right way to go anyway. I do accept the diagnosis but from time to time it leaves me wondering since the progress is so small, I mean almost everyone I read about with TMS revovers so quickly. I can challenge the back and knee pain by running but this isnīt my major issue, itīs the CPP. I could easily live with the rest if my CPP would just go away. I know there are many who has recovered from CPPS by Sarnoīs methods, I really wish I one day can add myself to that category! |

Posted - 02/28/2006 : 02:39:46 I know that I have issues buried deep inside, one problem Iīve had throughout my life is saying what I really want to say instead of worrying how other people might feel. Most often itīs like I donīt have the guts to speak up for myself and that can build op some serious anger. I also have unsolved conflicts with my father and stepmom and that might be one cause. I really have to learn how to speak up for myself but a lifelong habit is hard to break... Thanks for your replies. |

Really? Well it is not true in my case. I suffered for years with no progress and thought the same thing. I had to discover the feelings in my unconscious to make progress and until this happened there was absolutely no change in the symptoms. Accept fully the diagnosis and try to discover what is going on inside of you. It's easier said then done I know but what alternative do you have. You can do it. Be patient and commit yourself to understanding what the little guy inside is feeling. |

You can get that impression from reading the book (I did), but if you look carefully, you will see cases where it takes longer.
