New to this forum

Hello,

i am new to this forum. Making my first post. I suffer from Anxiety, Fibromyalgia, Vestibular Migraines, PTSD, IBS Vertigo. I read that feeling suppressed emotions leads to healing i struggle with the feeling aspect and would love any advice on how to feel our feelings even suppressed ones so i can heal and feel better. Thank you.

 

Hi @Bsarkar and welcome!

The best place to start is to read a book by Dr. Sarno. No matter what your symptoms are, (he often mentions back pain, but his books are for any chronic pain or symptom) his books are the #1 place to start - here is is biography and a bibliography: https://www.tmswiki.org/ppd/John_E._Sarno,_MD (John E. Sarno, MD)

The theory behind TMS is not just feeling "supressed" emotions, which is why I recommend one of his books. There is also much more emergent science behind TMS (his books were written many years ago) but his method is the basis of all self-healing from TMS.

Once you have read one of his books (The Divided Mind is easy to get and describes a myriad of symptoms) please come back and ask us any questions at all, and let us know what you think about it!

 

Thank you will do.
