Pain
I don’t want to feel it and I don’t want to talk or write about it anymore. Every day it is someplace else in my body. Lately I can hardly walk. Years ago I had a resolution of my TMS symptoms. They returned gradually and now with a vengeance. I have seen Dr,. Sarno. .read all his books, been a member of this forum for months and months.
I am exhausted, depressed, pissed off and so son and so on.
I have been in therapy. Met with my inner child. Cried my heart and soul out over my childhood. Recognized my triggers. I have journaled talked to my brain and anyone else willing to listen. Kept a positive attitude, ignored my pain and now I just don’t know what else to do.
I am ruined because I am sure TMS is the cause of my ongoing pain. Knowing about TMS assures me that nothing in traditional medicine can help. Not surgery ,pills, physical therapy , acupuncture . At least before a placebo could give me temporary relief, now I have none.

Thanks Plantweed,
I needed to be reminded that this will pass.
Your encouragement is greatly appreciated.

You are in an acute phase. They don't last. I would get some painkillers and ride it out. |

How does a person get back to their lives if they are unable to walk without stumbling or looking crippled? The pain is so severe I have to fight not to scream or cry. Yes, I have cried and screamed..I try not to do that in public.
Up until about a week ago I was doing whatever it is I do and I am not a complainer..Most never knew I was in pain. Now because I am in such extreme pain everyone is asking me if I am ok, or do I need help, or why don't you sit down?

Hang in there. I'm gradually, slowly coming out of a six-month pain period. Last week had a breakdown with my wife, letting it all out. The next morning I told her that was the last she was gonna hear about my back. I haven't mentioned it since. What do you know, it's started to feel better... I just got obsessed with the pain. It was hard to watch TV or movies and see people move the way I couldn't move, just everyday crap. Totally ridiculous. I tried journaling but just ended up writing the same things over and over. Felt dopey and forced.
Tonight I'm going to my first yoga class and ignoring the pain. |
