To continue... Wavy,tt,Allen-non, 2Scoops, Vicki, wrldtrv,AnneG,Littlebird,Nor,Floorten,FlyByNight,Hilary,Kevin,Carbar,JaneLeslie,Suz,Susie,Victoria,altherunner,Justme,Kevin,Crybaby,NewMom,Paul,John's, and more...
I am sending all of you lots of love and healing prayers..Please forgive me if I forgot to mention your name..I tried to think of everyone who really touched me and helped me on the forum..I wish I could write separately to each and every one of you, but I would be on here forever and I want to not only stop writing, but also stop reading for a time..
I am going to be reading TDM fully, painting, working on myself on all levels of being..I know none of us have met face to face,in person (except tt and I for a brief moment years ago)..but I feel as if I know you all in a special way..There is a bond and my heart is full of gratitude for all your caring support and very wise words...I also appreciate any constructive criticism I received which helped me to evolve as a human being! You have felt like my internet family and that connection has truly helped me..
I am intense, I am detailed and wordy, I am a perfectionist, and I am thin skinned particularly this last year..I own all of this and still love myself anyway..I am an imperfect human constantly working on herself..
The last thing I ever want to do is hurt anyone else human or animal..I even carry insects out of the house whenever I can! I value life and hope to go far with my art and music so that I can afford to donate to all the best animal rights causes I currently work for voluntarily..That is my heart..That is who I really am..Not the defensive, hormonal woman I have behaved like recently..For anyone on here who I ever hurt unintentionally with words, I am deeply sorry..The current life pressures are so intense right now and have been for awhile..I have just not been myself..Please forgive me..
Love you guys and maybe I will come back some time with good news! God bless you all and please do write me via my regular email if you are so inclined..I will be reading any other replies I might get later today..I know I said I am outta here by this morning, but I don't feel ready until later today..If anyone else writes I don't want them to feel I didn't respond to them..I don't expect anyone to write, that is not my purpose in writing this farewell of sorts..My purpose is to express my deep gratitude!! My email for anyone who wants to write is peezly@hotmail.com, my contact info is also on my profile here.. To all of us recovering from TMS, ~Karen PS...the reason this keeps going up on the list here is because everytime I remember someone else I want to thank I keep editing their name in...Forgive my perfectionism, I know you can relate.. |

Hi Karen,
I think it's a good decision to give it a little rest. This is intense work. I am seeing you make GREAT TMS PROGRESS! Sleep on it and let it integrate.
In order for you to further progress and rid yourself of the psychosomatic symptoms you need to understand the TMS fundamentals better and that only comes from understanding the TMS "knowledge penicillin" contained in the books. Now's the time to hit the TMS books to improve your TMS "accuracy".
Maybe just observe the board as a spectator and watch some others flaming for a change .
Once again I have seen you make great progress and you need and deserve a vacation from all this intensity.
Enjoy the beach!

Thanks for the prayers, Karen. I've felt better this last couple of days, so who knows, maybe they're working already! Or maybe it's my choice to relax this week, enjoy the sun and forget my stress, in which case I can commend your choice of distancing yourself from this forum for a while!
All the best, Greg

Karen;
Thanks again for all the laughter. It sure hit the spot on a day I really needed it. You certainly offer up loads of caring support to those around you. Obviously, you've touched many people here. Life can be so painful at times--it just boggles the mind. But reaching out to one another sure seems to be the key sometimes. You do a great job at it! Thank you. Bon Voyage (in mind and body). Vicki |

Karen, hope you're off on your break already, I'm sure it'll be productive. Sorry I got down on you a bit in the other thread, I was in a prickly mood and didn't say things as well as I might have.

I am truly touched by everything I just read..Let me start with the first new reply and go from there..I am off into the sunset for awhile, as of tonight..I just don't want to not reply to you lovely people!! If anyone writes after I officially start the break, please don't be offended if I don't write back for now..And please feel free to write me via regular email anytime, especially if I can offer support of any kind..
Greg, Awesome that you are feeling better! Prayers are powerful!! Thank you for your kind words.. BTW I love Germany, all of Europe is the best!! Keep healing!!!
Lita, Thank you again for the well wishes and I wish the same for you!!
ACL, No worries, I didn't take offense..(well maybe a tiny bit at first..) but you have helped me sooo much that I can only be very grateful to you! You are a very wise and caring woman! I wish you all the best til next time..
Vicki, That is so sweet of you to say..It means alot to me..I get down on myself alot and to hear that I have helped others really makes me smile! If you ever feel like writing, don't hesitate! Our fun conversation was precious to me and I needed it too, believe me! Don't forget that Mr. Ed is bilingual!! lol..
You guys are just the best, truly! You have made my day and I thank you from the bottom of my heart..I know things will turn around, they have to..Life goes in cycles and I am due for an upswing! I feel like I am graduating college again, I learned so much here and I am sad about this break..but..I know it's for the best..I have no idea how long it will be..Long enough for me to feel that I have my inner strength and power back..Long enough for me to get my skin thicker and more resilient..And long enough to stop kvetching and start living! I feel hopeful and I feel grateful.. Love and hugs to you all, Karen
