How Do We Change The Brains Perception Of Danger?

[@janethansen9612]

Love you Dan. I'm now working four days a week, pain or not. This time last year I could barely leave my bed.

[@ShirleyMartin-lp2or]

That’s so wonderful to hear, I’m so happy for you. I, too have my life back, and I’m so very grateful♥️

[@RhodaGeddes]

That's fantastic xx

[@user-ok9wz9uy6y]

How about really being overwhelmed. My mom had a stroke and is difficult to deal with. Also helping with babysitting 1 year old granddaughter. Trying to exercise consistently. I usually freak out at 5 pm, when symptoms are the worse. I’m trying, maybe too hard.

Wow a big dat win 🎉🎉🎉

[@marieleak8731]

@@user-ok9wz9uy6y Be kind to you, you have a lot on your plate. Good for you for keeping up with exercise. Sending hugs.♥♥

What's really hard is to change my belief system, to no longer fall into the traps of my usual thought patterns, namely being broken, .... instead of recovery is natural.....

[@RobLewis3]

The belief system changes naturally over time. You don't have to ruminate. Watch Michael Greenberg 👍

Welcome home Dan home sweet home 🏡 100% TMS no doubt did the test. I just live my life and show my brain I am safe😊 I am 99 % no longer afraid of the sensations they are negative thoughts stuck in my body and produced by my inner Child I no longer see them as true because I am in charge not baby Len . Meaning I dont believe them these negative thoughts. It is all fear and I am not buying into them. I am strong lovable amazing powerful ......I am ok and keep walking and keep trusting and believing in the process. Ty Dan sending you much love and to all of you here on KZbin ❤❤❤

I found you through The Steady Coach podcast. Your perspective just stopped a panic attack in its tracks this morning. I actually feel like there is hope for understanding what is going on. Thank you for sharing this powerful message. ❤

That is fantastic Jenny. Thrilled you are finding this information helpful.

Struggling today. Got out early drove partner to train station and walked in a very empty park at 7.15am. a new sensation hit n slight panic, back into my car but sat with it for a while. Bit shivery so went home , got in my bed n rested. Hour later back out, but very edgy. Then it hit me, it's my mum's anniversary n the tears fell in my car😢. Feeling so exhausted and having a" why me" moment 🙄. This too shall pass.

[@Lenneke8422]

Sending you courage and much love sweet friend ❤❤❤

[@mikeshields2530]

Thanks for talking about the spiritual aspect. It's real

[@chezham]

And a BIG thanks for not bringing in religion.

[@daynemin]

I left all religion and spirituality out of TMS recovery. Keep it as simple and down to earth as possible. Perceiving danger on earth not in different realms or dimensions. 🐱😁

[@thomas0991-q9k]

Commit to the 'now'. Recognise when you are in a learned pattern of fear and preoccupation and shift in a active( doing mode not thinking iam ok mode) and repeat.( create a new BIG neural pathway of safety) visualize this pathway! The brain and body will feel safe when you do normall things without the fuel: FEAR. Its like a habit. For me this works: O, iam again obsessing on pain or fear. I can not avoid the sensation of fear, but i can choose my reaction to it! This will avoid secundary fear. Action: Doing the opposit and go on with my day or activity. Repeat ,repeat repeat... with determination. Not heavy pressure. The obsession will fade by time. Recognise when you have resistance to be present. That was a big one for me. Thanks al lot for show the way Dan. But i had to drove the ' vehicle' myself.

[@user-mf5co5xv8y]

Wie visualisiert man einen neuronalen Pfad der Sicherheit? Was stellt man sich vor?

[@daynemin]

Being afraid all the time is exhausting. Safe!

[@susanwalter5098]

Vertigo hit a few weeks ago… it has really stirred up all the already there pain. Will be totally honest , having a hard time staying calm. Tuesday I have an appointment with a PT that specialized with helping vertigo. A few steps forward and a few steps backwards. You are so right Dan, when you say this is not easy, but is doable!! It’s been a tearful few weeks, but determined to keep climbing. Thank for being here for us when we are having harder than normal times!! ❤

[@PainFreeYou]

You can do this Susan.

[@JaneWolf-cp3qd]

Glad you’re not changing your business model. You are doing so much good for so many people. Thank you. I have started to go about my day and not focus on dizziness or brain fog or any of my other symptoms. I talk to my brain in kind of a tough love way encouraging it to leave me alone because it is making my life a lot harder. I’m trying to ignore the symptoms and live with what I have until my brain stops perceiving danger. Not suffering not freaking out.

[@PainFreeYou]

We will notice our symptoms. Don't try to ignore. Notice, but choose a calm response.

[@elizabethtara7658]

My chronic pain is taking over again... from back to breast to groin.. as soon as im doing better $ ill be joining your groups. Im tired oyt of the cycle. I don’t know what's real anymore .. or tms.

[@1STBUCKLEY]

If you've been medically checked and ruled out the life threatening stuff it's probably all PDP/TMS

[@PainFreeYou]

If you were doing better, then it comes back, that's most likely TMS / Perceived Danger Symptoms. Do the assessments. IsThisPDP.com - that will tell you what's going on. My fast start playlist is the next best thing to the group coaching. DansFastStart.com - lots of people are getting well just from learning and implementing from those videos.

[@Montyofkittentopia]

That your symptoms move around is a good indication of TMS/PDP.

[@Jagrt2000]

Thank you so much for all you do! I so appreciate it! Love and Blessings ❤

[@joeconti1219]

Trying to settle myself.. what a night!!.. flare?? Perceived danger raging??

Welcome home Dan 😀

[@PainFreeYou]

Thank you - feels good to get out of Vegas and get home.

[@desirayarmstrong2025]

If you have no pain but bodily sensations that are believed due to anxiety, can I still utilize the test that you are talking about?

[@PainFreeYou]

Yes, use the FIT questions on this page. That speaks about symptoms. IsThisPDP.com

[@Montyofkittentopia]

Yes, this program works for anxiety

I get unbelievably painful left sided pain that drops me to the floor at times. It feels like I'm having a heart attack when it happens. I get warm and start sweating, I feel out of it, and have intense left sided pain around my ribs, chest, and upper back that feels like a fullness and pressure. I've been to so many doctors and had tests done and they aren't finding the source of the sensations. When I lie down flat on my back, it seems to ease the discomfort considerably. I don't understand why. It scares me a lot because it's so intense that I'm forced to lie down to endure the pain and discomfort. I don't know how to show my brain I'm safe when I have to lie down.

[@PainFreeYou]

It's all perceived danger. There is nothing wrong with making yourself comfortable. How are you responding mentally and emotionally? Are you fueling the fear or cooling it with your internal dialog?

[@IndialienJones]

@@PainFreeYou I respond mentally and emotionally with fear. I know that doesn't help, but I feel like I'm having a heart attack when it's happening. The other symptoms, like getting really warm and slightly sweating, is especially unnerving. Is lying down not fueling the perceived danger? Is that not sending a message of "I'm not safe so I need to lie down"? My internal dialogue is typically along the lines of..."Oh crap...I feel like I'm having a heart attack. This must be my heart. I know it's been checked, but they MUST be missing something. I know Dan says not to fuel the fear, but I physically feel like I'm having a heart attack."

[@PainFreeYou]

@@IndialienJones This sounds very challenging. Laying down to make yourself comfortable is the least of your perceived dangers. View that as a measure of safely providing yourself kindness and self care. The internal dialog will happen. The question is how long you stay there before you change the script and reassure yourself that you have made it through every single one of these events and will be fine this time too. Cardiac care is pretty well locked down. If there was a problem with your heart, they would have found it. TMS/PDP is the cause. Especially given the amount of fear surrounding the symptoms. That fear can keep it going.

I can't find the fit test...

Reflux, heartburn and indigestion pain is kicking my butt at the moment keeping me away as feels like my stomach is exploding (worry I have an ulcer and I’m damaging my oesophagus as the symptoms get stronger as I’m not taking medication although my doctor suggests PPI’s. Just wish this would go as I’ve had for over a year at different degrees.

Please stay away from ppi. Most prescribed drug. It's supposed to be short term. My ulcer started after my mum died (58)and I had two little ones. Tested positive Helicobacter pylori bacteria. Did a four antibiotics for two weeks. Big change. It was all grieve stress etc imo. Check Dr Berg KZbin reflux etc. He's brilliant
