| -ive beaten the last obstacle; which was breaking the conditioning-understanding repression...and understanding elements of my personality.... ive came a long way since my first post in which i was basicly bedridden in pain-its not hard for me to mention the whole story knowing it was just a few months ago-i have acceptance here too-it has been completed-(the healing-the cure) im going to say all the way now -i read an article about how the trail is ingrained through our mind to our symptom based on the focus,attention and fear we give tms.ive re-conditioned my mind to not think this way anymore-but if it trys to linger in that direction-ill just think in the now or become mindful or think psycological-these were more of my last steps- of course ill keep on re-programming and re-versing to stay fine tuned-.ive also been healed of many other things along the way-through studying tms it has made my walk in faith so much stronger-i know now even though i was told a thousand times before how to just believe and watch miracles happen - ive also learned how to not hold in feelings like i want to tell this person something but i cant or feeling guilty because i had to say no to someone or blaming my wife because i didnt know all my perception was rejection -now if i start to have anxiety or pain ill think what am i angry about or anxiuos about that im holding onto and i will face it and stand up to the bully ,now i know what im supposed to do -its been a look into the power that we really have living on the inside of us. i know how to speak to the mountains now.this is part of my recovery story-just a reminder to all my friends on the forum to hang in there and never give up-the magic of john sarno on youtube was one of the videos that led me to seek tms healing-i re-watched it today and it made all the sense in the world to me -when i first watched it i didnt quit get it-its took a lot of work but its over...i feel like i did before i ever got my back hurt ....thanks to all my friends here on the forum ,john sarno for his hard work and my lord jesus....god bless. |

Wonderful for you Eric. Congratulation.
Jesus is a fearless man. If we can all be like him we would suffer from any tms/anxiety disease.

| Thanks balto although-im still on the journey-now i use this new conditioned mind to accomplish alot of assets in my life-from physical to psycological and all in between-i was amazed at how not paying attention to my mind i was giving in to living life as it whirled me about like the wind-now i can believe for higher grounds and maybe find new ways we can benefit from this knowledge therapy-its an ever lasting -passing journey-each obstacle will be a new way to get to our desired result-its life that we can control or it can control us-i have to keep it simple -as it can be simple-and ill be able to keep applying the methods since im still a newbie at three months-although ive studied my whole life for this -all the greats-it was right there in front of me but it took sarno and this forum so i could get that uh huh moment-about 10 times now-everyday actually-it took about three days for the first and then two weeks and now i feel a flow of healing through out my body as i work and exercise-been feeling it like this every now and then -but now i feel it all over each day-its almost like sarno said -it jumped first-then it started jumping all over about 11 weeks in an now i have this constant healed feeling-its good |

Thanks Eric, you're the Eric Hoffer of roofers! If you're ever out in the Wild West I'll put you into the tennis Fastrak lane. TMS in the medicine cabinet is your health-care plan.
I had a worrisome thought the other day--what if I was no longer a hippy and could run like the good ol' days?--I'd have to hire a new coach now that the Good Doctor retired. It's like the little girl at the tent show revival, who comes up on stage using crutches, and is healed by the envangelist laying on of hands, throws away her crutches , runs sobbing into her mother's arms and cries, "Mommy, I'm scared-- it feels so strange."
Cheers |

| TT thanks-if im that way ill have to catch up on some tennis-youll have to go light with me-im a novice-the health care plan you mentioned is exactly right-i think you have always ran like the good ol days/its my perception of you-no obstacles but keepin it real-i dont know but a little about my hippie days -went by so fast-im still a hippy at heart,,,ha ha ).-about the scared girl-well i bet she learned how to do just fine as time went by-but thinking about it-it does seem scary with the doc gone-or more like we have a void-but thats where you and dr.zafirides ,steveo and ace1 come in-its good to know i have friends im in awe of-thanks tt-god bless |

Eric,
Now that you've reached that point, you have to build some resistance in your nervous system. You must go out and do things that before petrified you and produced autonomic symptoms aplenty. This includes public speaking, exploring heights, whatever. Each is a bit different, but the biggies are all the same. Fear is forever going to be your jailer unless you can approach these things without trepidation at all. This will wipe away past failures to face up to your symptoms, and it will ultimately set open the door for you to explore and enjoy the life you were meant to live. |

Hillbilly thanks alot  you hit the nail on the head-i used to do alot of public speaking up till about 8 yrs ago-it was such a re-lease each time i would get up and get the crowd excited about their lives-it had so much healing-at first i was scared like a little boy,but i grew up fast by the second time and throughly enjoyed every step-my brother has been talking to me about doing it again and i know this will be a step in the right direction-its been so long its like i never did it before.ill have to get out my studies and make a run at it again i know it will be of great benefit.this is the rd i aim to take-so thanks again hillbilly for your former advice and now for this,godbless...(your post are pricless) |

Join Toastmasters and give speeches about things that you daydream about. Go zip lining, skiing, mountain climbing, anything that brings on an adrenaline rush that you now can interpret correctly instead of letting it stultify you as you did in the past. I'm just guessing here about specific activities, but most of the things we experience are hardwired into the sympathetic nervous system at birth as a danger alarm bell. Our only mistake is in interpretation. That's why anxiety disorders, or TMS as most call it here, are really nothing more than an error in interpretation of their own body.
Roller coasters used to cause my legs to stiffen at the thought of getting on them, but during the ride I would actually look forward to the next turn once I survived the first plunge downhill as the cart picked up speed. Start looking for minute-to-minute diversions in your attention to things that make you pause. Pay close attention and make an unemotional appraisal of danger involved. If there is none, aside from symptom uptick, get on the cart and go flying. |

as a roofer you probably have no fear of height.
I had many many fears I overcame. "Just do it" I find is the only way for me.
One of the hardest fear to overcome for me is the fear of not having a bathroom close by wherever I go.

Heh, heh 
Balto, are we talking #1 or #2? I find Flomax does a good job of symptomatic relief for #1. Just used it for a 600 mile car trip--no problem. |

Thanks for the advice TT, but I have not have any MB symptoms for a very long time. I'm as good as when I was a teenager. I don't have any unreal fear anymore. Well, the only fear I have left is the fear of one day my wife will find out that those cordless tools from Dewalt and Rigid I bought really cost more than $5 a piece.
Back in the bad old tms day, it was so bad that I have to wear aldult diapers when I go to unfamilar place, "just incase".
One of my teacher once told me: the day you're cured is the day you have no more fear thought in your mind. The latter usually have to happened first.

Aw eric, thx for thinking bout me. You can't imagine how pleased I am for you & yr progress. You have the attitude that is so important for TMS healing. Pls keep posting even when u are 100%. I know its hard but a lot of people who say they have healed don't post much (bar a few like Forest & Matthew & SteveO & Dave & Balto & a few others, ) & I can understand why. They have a life to live. But the thing is that sometimes I wonder if they have relapsed or are still struggling. Its important to get feedback to know that this method works & is permanent. Its very encouraging.
My very best to you always
