    I just came across a very useful tool for TMS'ers on page 172 of Nicole's TRUTH book. Although every TMS book mentions the three sources of TMS, this page is like a spread sheet for ID'ing and journaling the sources of individual TMS'ers personal subconscious repressed rage that creates the structural and affective TMS symptoms. These are CHILDHOOD, DAILY LIFE and PERSONALITY. This worksheet could be a very useful tool to help bring home the stressors, past, future and now, that add up to become symptom distractions when the TMS RESERVOIR OF RAGE fills to overflowing.

    I got a copy of Nicole's book long ago and found it unbearably histrionic (caps, exclamation marks, plus her mom is nice to her which makes me envious, I guess) but I listened in on the first Tuesday call and she is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (lol)

    Truly, I love her message and will try again with the book, especially page 172. Thanks, TT and THANKYOU, NICOLE!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ROCK.

    Y'welcome Njoy, sometimes the printed word doesn't do the best job of expressing truthful emotions, the same for the interwebs. An audio version of Nicole's book would be great--I like a woman who talks dirty to me--especially when I'm being psychoanalyzed on the couch.

    njoy,
    I had a hard time with the formatting in her book, too. I kept thinking as I was reading it that it would be better without the caps, bolding, exclamation marks, large type--it wasn't needed. But the message and her passion for it is great.

    I agree, Ellen. She is actually a good writer who needs an editor. As do 99% of all writers and the other 1% would benefit. Oh well, we love her anyway :)

    TT said, "I like a woman who talks dirty to me--especially when I'm being psychoanalyzed on the couch." Funny!
