Again thanks people for good advice! Appreciated. :)

Hi ashcatash - it's heart palpitations. Seems to have calmed down now and again I'm feeling better. So up and down but I'm continuing with the Structured Education Programme and thinking of what I'll do when it ends. Want to continue with this work - it's so useful.

After some initial relief from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome I'm getting awful symptoms now. The most scary are palpitations and I haven't had these for a few years. Now they're back and they're hard to ignore. They seem to come on if I over exert myself - walk too fast or climb stairs too...

Thanks so much for all this assistance! I think in the past I've buried the anger and forced forgiveness - because this is the nice thing I thought I was supposed to do. I'm beginning to see that you have to work at forgiveness.....

Thanks so much for these replies. I'm using the train technique and it's going well. You've both given me a lot to think and journal about! MorComm your explanation hits home with me. I'll be sending for Unlearn Your Pain. x

I'm working to recover from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I made pretty good progress over the past two weeks. I've had lots more energy and few symptoms. Then today 'BAM' - ill again. Found it hard to walk - body feels like it does if it's got a bad cold. Anyway, did the self-talk and ignored...

One of the things I've noticed about myself is that I over think negative things that happen in my life. If something happens that upsets me I will think about it for days or even weeks - even though the problem is resolved. If it's a disagreement with another person we may have resolved this...
