That's 100% true people don't or can't realise this that if ur not feeling well inside u can't act u can't use your full potential ..but the main question is how to feel better inside

[@fridagurn3903]

Hi, Dan, i totally agree with mind-body theory behind all my symptoms but for me personally i feel that my life gets in a way of my recovery. Its just too much background stress that wears me out..

[@ChrisSaenz13]

Indifference & not freaking out over symptoms are a couple of the most powerful things I've been improving on & learning from your videos Dan! John your story is so relatable to me! Thank you for sharing & I pray for you for even better days ... !!! Your sharing will help a lot of people!! When my TMS flared in the past it was in a dramatic show stopping way too and challenged my health beliefs even though like you - I saw that doctors only tried to work on the symptoms. I'm grateful that people like you two are willing to share your experiences with us!!!

[@PainFreeYou]

Thanks for your comment Chris.

There sure are many experts on TMS, but dear Dan, no one on this planet can carry out the message of knowledge and hope as well as you do. You’re the best in that field. You understand the daily questions and concerns of people with TMS like no other. You are for me a daily message of hope and safety. Thank you!! (I hope my English is good enough)

[@PainFreeYou]

Thank you Wim. Really appreciate the kind words. I'm humbled by your praise.

[@yashasris4723]

I've joined your course Dan and this story resonates so much, beyond having similar pain areas in the upper part of the body neck upwards - I totally relate to the verbal journaling, I go out on walks for hours and tell myself that my low self-esteem, self-loathing have no basis and I have to see myself and my brain in a better light. Chronic pain really takes us to dark areas emotionally but I am determined to pull myself out of this pit. Thank you for your work.

[@PainFreeYou]

You are very welcome. It was great to have you join the group.

[@north.studios]

I'm 19, and have been suffering with daily migraines, scolosis, back pain, neck pain, stomach issues, and so so much more. But I'm half way into this video and he's so far literally described most my life to the T perfectly from what meds I've been on to what he has felt and also things doctors have told him to shoe him away. And especially when he talks about losing his support group and credibility. I wish I was older before so I understood you can be your own advocate.

Hey, I'm also 19 and suffer from chronic migraines. How is your situation, has your condition improved yet, and if so, is there an aspect that particularly helps with headaches? What does your experience say so far?

[@north.studios]

I figured out everything my man. Get your eyes checked asap. Never knew I need glasses, cause this is all I'd ever seen. I got glasses and got botox from my doctor from 19 years of eye strain, and my migraines disappered. My headaches however did not, and that's simply because of medication overuse (rebound headaches from to many NSAID's) and black mold!! Black mold is something you need to test for IMMEDIATLY. @@utrix5476

[@RoseKhanArtist]

Thank you for this video! I’m 2 years into TMS recovery and now I’m at the point where if things are happy and I have a good project to dig into, life is great and I am ‘normal’. As soon as a stress hits me or I’m not focused on a work project, things go sideways. It’s affirmation I’m on the right track. I’m in the phase where I need my brain to understand that we can have stress but it doesn’t need to respond with symptoms to distract me. Your video today hit on that point quite well!

[@PainFreeYou]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqixnWqfq5l-Zrs It's how you respond when the symptoms hit that will determine if that keeps happening when in stress.

[@HobzyMcRuse]

@@rebeccachew2321 Just stick to the process. Flare Ups come and go. If you constantly practise calming the mind, your symptoms will gradually decrease. Don't set an end date, don't force it and try to go about your life without fear and paying it indifference. I know what it's like. I get all the symptoms - It's crazy when I wake up, like I'm being electrocuted, ants in my head, back ache, sore limbs, tinnitus, fatigue etc, but since listening to Dan and practising 'somatic tracking' and TMS brain retraining stuff, I'm getting a little better. It will probably take a couple of years to be symptom free but it's better than the alternative. Stick to the process. You will get there! xx

[@rebeccachew2321]

@@HobzyMcRuse Thanks for your message. I only just saw it. I have come back to this video today as i need reminding how the brain really can create such bad symptoms and how its possible to heal . I also have mostly all issues on one side face head rib, arm and little patches on leg, although upper body is worse, nerve and weird intense sensation, also recently nausea which is a nice one to add to the list !! hope you are ok

[@HobzyMcRuse]

TMS really sucks!! Remember, your recovery depends on how well you respond to symptoms. We will always feel worse if we focus on the symptoms in a negative way. (I know I tend to complain about my symptoms too much) I've started light weights and gentle cardio and although it causes flare ups it definitely will help as the body will create stronger neural pathways in response to the exercise. After a month or so the symptoms improve but it has to be GRADUAL. Gentle exercise is key! Exercise will lift your mood and make symptoms less severe and less frequent. Do lots of relaxed breathing and eat a healthy junk-free diet with enough protein and omega 3 fats. Don't set a time limit. Smile, socialise and laugh a lot. Watch comedies. Live your life and stop caring about the symptoms and you will get there!! Recovery takes as long as it takes.@@rebeccachew2321

[@adrienne4481]

Dan, I am listening to this great interview who showes how great work you accomplish for us. I was thinking about one thing what I hear a lot; we 'complain' about the doctors who are NOT interested in finding the cause or even look at the influence side of the brain/mind. I think for sure that's true, but what makes that worse is that the majority of people also really don't want to hear or look at the influence of the brain/mind. People are some kind of afraid or ashamed to look at themselves and start making themselves 'better'. It is so much easier to blame the injury or doctor or therapist and it feels saver to 'hide' behind their injury/illness label..... When I talked to some people (my brother for example) about you and the work, he became very upset and angry; he felt misunderstood and it was a laugh that his mind is the problem. And in those conversations it is soooo important to keep on mentioning what you do; you do not make up the pain, the pains are REAL!!!! it is not your fault, you just ended up here. I sincerely hope that we can infect each other in a good way to be more open about this, and that there is nothing, nothing to be ashamed about! Also there is no catch or downside by just trying to follow your tips (and other TMS practioners). Just be kind and loving to yourself, forgive yourself and start this new journey for the sake of yourself and the people around you. Big hug to all of you

[@aswenster]

Thank you for this video. I’ve been going thru this for 11 years. At first I’d always rush to doctor. They usually found nothing., then, I recognized the pattern of pain moving around and taking diff forms. I found Dr Sarno early on and it made total sense, altho i have not been able to make it stop. Usually after a doctor doesn’t find anything or if it’s ambiguous, my mind lets it go and i heal and start over with a new “thing.” I’ve been under a lot of stress and for the past 5 months, it’s been a revolving door of pain and shifting pain. I just realized listening yo the video that it’s likely financial stress that came up around that time. Anyway The latest symptom is what feels like tooth pain. I’ve noticed this ongoing (one of a few that move around) since 2016. At first I’d run to dentist. But now I have a rule that I wait two weeks and see how it feels. But it’s insidious like you mentioned- And because there have been a few times a bit down and had a sharp pain I thought I better have it checked. I don’t want to go looking for it wasn’t there, but then the fear kicked in that what if somethings really wrong. So when I went to the dentist knowing that it could be TMS but not sure, she found a crack in the back molar. Obviously we don’t know if it’s causing pain and we don’t know if getting a crown will resolve anything. I am in a position of if I let it wait then the crack could be a problem further down the road. Stressed to have to have a crown It could be more problematic. Between a rock and a hard place on getting it fixed or not. But knowing full well that it likely is not what it seems to be. And this just stresses me more. During this 11 years of this pain coming and going with nothing ever resolved, I’ve never been able to make it stop. Even after a tremendous amount of internal work. In fact it seems to be intensifying- but I see a direct correlation to financial stress, fear, repressed anger, and catastrophic thinking going crazy. The terrible thing about TMS is when you’re barely coping, and the cycle of physical pain makes it barely possible to get a foothold on functioning and remedying the external stressors. It’s an awful mental cycle/physical.

[@aswenster]

Everything you say at the end of the video at 54 minutes is exactly what I’ve been going through all of it financial relationship wise every level and it’s very reassuring to understand I haven’t realized the stress I’ve been dealing with and why my body would give me this pain to distract me even though I figured out what was going on I haven’t really connected it to this level until this video. Will definitely look at your program thank you

[@PainFreeYou]

Going back to the fundamentals. Perceived danger is what turns on pain. Keeps it going too. If that's the case, teaching the brain we are not in danger is the solution. Yes, we will always have life stress, but we do not need to have pain as a result.

[@aswenster]

@@PainFreeYou Thank you. I kept reminding myself of feeling safe last night. Also on a side note: I am now so often confused when issues come up in the body and I don’t want to get it checked. I feel like I wouldn’t know if something was really wrong bc of this pattern of doctors do not find anything. I wonder if you’ve made a video on how to handle that? Now I err on side of not going to get it checked bc it’s exhausting. But if you don’t get it checked you sit with worry until it subsides. Or if you get a diagnosis like w dentist finding a cracked tooth you don’t trust it. Anyway ty again!! 😊 I’m going to go thru all the videos and check out the program info.

Your symptoms will lift when you successfully neutralize your fear. The story you are telling yourself above is creating more fear and danger. Do the opposite. You can and will get well.

[@chrishairston8867]

This video is encouraging. I think I’m struggling with accepting TMS because I’ve been diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases and fearful of getting another. I’m waivering in belief this approach will help. BUT, I know that autoimmune is inflammation, and inflammation is caused/or worsened by my brain. I am quite uncomfortable with the symptoms I’m experiencing, but nothing compared to the level of physical/mental anguish this man describes. If he can manage through this, so can I. Thank you gentlemen.

[@PainFreeYou]

Hey Chris. Something to note - when in the stress response / fight or flight, the digestive and immune systems are suppressed. And if you are stressing about an immune system issue, you are not allowing the immune system to return to balance. I do believe that stress and perceived danger can allow these "immune system "diseases" to occur. There is literally ZERO downside to the approach I teach daily in my vieos. www.PainFreeYou.com/start

Anyone with shooting/zapping throat pain also happens in ear and jaw My symptoms align with glossopharyngeal neuralgia… but mine are not excruciating pain as they describe… also happens very randomly It’s not triggered by swallowing / chewing and etc I also had an overall nerve pain that is almost 95% gone thanks to Dan … it was totally TMS So I came back here … thinking it’s the same thing … but dr Google made me freak out again .. and thinking it’s GPN

[@PainFreeYou]

I would suggest you decide that your remaining symptoms are nothing more than Perceived Danger Pain or symptoms. So many neuralgias are nothing more than medical labels given by doctors that cannot prove the cause of the pain or symptoms. SO many are simply perceived danger. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp-4Z354dttonMk

U think pain is bad in your jaw? Wait till you get jaw crunching and grinding that last and never gets better..Its in my jaw joint..I cant opem as wide as I used to.. All this happened after my Mom died and right after loosing my job. I Had also taken care of her for 5 years...The joint when it is effected is a challenge..I had many TMS stuff...sciatica in both legs, neck pain etc and compared to the jaw it felt like a treat. I still cant tell id it is TMS...Oral surgeons want to do surgery which I am not tp keen because the success rate is low...I try my best but there are days I want off this planet 2.

@@PainFreeYou how do you do that though?

[@TheBushRanger.]

TMJ classic tms.

@@TheBushRanger. 24/7 grinding in the joint TMS? TMJ is a catch all.phase.

I don't really understand a part of it. You say you had a call booked with Dan, symptoms then lessened and you were sure it would be gone in 3 months. Then it went back up and you booked another call. And then suddenly you had 3 weeks where you barely noticed it and you cancelled the call? Is it because you worked on the ruminating and catastrophizing or what did you do in the mean time?

[@TheBushRanger.]

Dan is there any chance I could get in contact with John? My story is extremely similar to his and I’d love to ask him some questions

[@PainFreeYou]

I'm not able to give out anyone's personal contact information, but if you send me your info through my contact page, I can pass it along to him. I have no idea if he's up to speak with others, but I can ask. www.painfreeyou.com/contact

I need help and maybe helping me with this question will help others. I've watched 2 of these success videos that are meant to encourage but they scared the crap out of me. This one caused me to sob this morning. It caused me to catastrophize even more that my symptoms can and will get worse before they get better. Part of my thing is I emphasize with other people's pain so hard when someone else's back goes out. Mine hurts too so I have a really hard time listening. Any suggestion would be helpful.

[@ilqar887]

So what was the cause of all this depression?

[@rommajiwan1972]

Hi Dan, how can I get in touch with you?

[@roisin6218]

Hello Dan - How do we join your course? :)

[@PainFreeYou]

All the details and sign up are here: PainFreeYou.com/join Thanks for inquiring. Hope to see you in there.

[@darrend2035]

John , did you have burning pain ??

[@wednesdayschild3627]

These syndromes are allor partially Tms. If there is no test, no treatment then I am not sure it is of the body without mind.

[@wednesdayschild3627]

Omg, I just thought of something. We evolved to be afraid of lions and finding food and water. Our unconscious does not understand all this complexity.

[@PainFreeYou]

Yep - Danger is danger.

[@Bitachon]

Who cares what the cause is?! Just treat the symptoms!?! 🤔

[@PainFreeYou]

Wrong. LOL Treat the cause....symptoms take care of themselves.

[@besteterzioglu9258]

​@@PainFreeYouwhat if the cause is a real damage? Like nerve damaged happened in dentist chair?

[@PainFreeYou]

@@besteterzioglu9258 What if the perception or diagnosis of nerve pain is incorrect? Many people are told they have nerve damage and it was TMS/Perceived Danger Pain all along. This video explains the cause of pain. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qp-4Z354dttonMk

[@taniajarema9842]

Well done for going off the meds! It was totally the meds that triggered all of that. OMG imagine saying it didn’t matter what the cause was!! Crazy.
