| There seem to be a lot of runners with tms - maybe a runner's section? Or, maybe not. I also like the existing forum. |

This generally works for me, though some things such as doctor recommendations, or discussions of local Support Groups or TMS resources (books, videos, links) dont really fall under psychology or symptomology. Another heading for Doctors, Support Groups, and other Resources? Not sure if this now makes too many separate headings to be practical. |

I do like the idea of a separate area that would act as a support group and help folks give/receive advice on more personal matters. After all, we all live lives that can get pretty complicated, and the stresses and complications can and do feed TMS.
Item 4. Personal Problems, was intended to take care of your suggestion quoted above. Perhaps Item 4 should be reworded, Personal Matters.

Dave – Again, Many Thanks for your commitment and dedication to this TMS Help Forum.
This is my revised list of suggested topics for TMS Forum Reorganization in the order of importance for the primary purpose of this forum. Note that this concise list summarizes all the areas which have been posted by TMS’ers in response to your original request for comments.
All current and existing topic postings should be placed in, Previous TMS Topics, without any need to categorize them into separate subtopics.
Note that Doctor Recommendations, Support Groups, TMS Resources, and all other general topics can be covered under, TMS General Topics.
I feel that TMS Psychology is the primary and most important topic for a true understanding of the TMS Theory, which can oftentimes result in a permanent TMS "cure".
TMS symptoms are not as important, since they tend to make one focus on the “physical” rather than on the “psychological”. But since there are a lot of postings where individuals want to ask and talk about their own specific physical symptoms, TMS Symptomatology.
Note that Success Stories can be covered under, TMS Testimonials.
For those with personal troubles seeking advice from other TMS’ers, Personal Problems.
Irrelevant Topics would be for those who wish to debate subjects which have nothing at all to do with TMS Help, either good-naturedly or antagonistically.
1. Previous TMS Topics
2. TMS General Topics
3. TMS Psychology
4. TMS Symptomatology
5. TMS Testimonials
6. Personal Problems
7. Irrelevant Topics

I've thought about this a lot, as I'm sure Joseph B has. I feel that too much specialization is going to make it hard for people to hear from a broader range of experience.
Also, I feel that the symptomology section would allow people to focus too much on the physical, which we're all guilty of.
Please consider the following three topics, and I thank JosephB.
1. TMS General Topics
2. TMS Testimonials
3. Irrelevant Topics
This takes care of the Al Gore thread issues and all similar non related issues. This also takes care of the people who ask for success stories a lot.

Perhaps there could be a folder to deal with equivalents too? These seem to be unique and yet deserve to be explored as indepth in their own regard.
Also, there's a good deal of non-Sarno literature that people suggest out there... could there be a resource section (someone may have already suggested this) where books, tapes, et all can be listed?

What about
1. TMS Topics
2. TMS Testimonials (Success Story posts)
3. Lists of TMS or equivalents that have been overcome.
4. Personal advice wanted.
5. Other topics
or scrub the Other topics and refer posters to more suitable websites as Dave suggested.

I too like this and understand the trepidation of a symptomology section but perhaps we could add an equivalency section to this one where at least those could be examined in depth as well.
Two other ideas that keep coming up are a listing of what people have overcome and a section of books and other resources, could their simply be such a listing available without making them a "comment-able" folder? |

*Liberterians
*Centerists
*Greens
*Anarchist Monsters (me)
