Seeing a Chiropractor that specializes in nueropathy

Hey man thanks for sharing. I have a ton of rage, and I have been focusing on this neuropathy, and this other pain. And today I read something from the book by Steve O.
And it helped say I'm going to beat this. But im so aware of the anger and rage.. I'm a people pleaser and learning to speak up for myself.

 

OK...So, that rage we are aware of? That is the tip of the iceberg...Our unconscious never ages so its like a raging thrashing glass breaking 5 years old who didn't get his way , throwing a tantrum.
That is why the symptoms are there. On Page 77 of Healing Back Pain Sarno gives explicit instruction that when we "Become aware of the pain to Forcefully and consciously turn our mind to a recurrent source of anger"

But if it's unconscious, isn't this foolish?

NO. You are retraining your own brain that You KNOW what it is up to and you are aware of it even if you don't understand all of the details.
That particular strategy, along with generally raising your awareness of the ones you CAN figure out, is THEE most important action...because as Sarno says "You are blowing the cover on a covert operation...when it realizes you have discovered it's existence...it stops and the pain stops"

I have had pain til I nearly puked, but done just that and been pain free the next day. It took about two weeks the first time, but the longer you practice it, the easier it gets.

and the reason your brain chose the pain? It's trying to protect you....Tell it you no longer need its help. You will Not become a murderer or a psychopath, though that is what our conscious brain is scared of. ...Break some shit....go Shooting...destroy some furniture....go get alone and f-ing lose your shit on someone whose not there....it's all good

 

I was just reading steve Os a book this morning and I took took some advice from that book, and I said, i'm not putting up with this crap anymore so hopefully I can tap into some of the rage. It's been there for a while this morning.I slammed my foot down on the floor and I thought i'm not afraid of the pain anymore.I'm not afraid of this pain.

I have to head into work, but I'll get back to this thread later. Appreciate the advice @Baseball65

 

I find this thread slightly unsettling. Why is there other people on here saying PN and neuropathy are irreversible? I have to say that this has slightly scared me. Why would a person say these things? Is it true?

 

This is an OLD thread...look at the dates. I had PF twice, and it went away both times with Sarno.
'neuropathy' is just modern nomenclature for TMS. Because of the failure of the Medical world to acknowledge TMS, they are constantly renaming and recategorizing all sorts of symptom batches. CRPS, Fibromyalgia, etc..all throwaway diagnoses. Neuropathy showed up about ten years ago...it's TMS, Or MBS if you like.
Wanna have some fun? Look up 'Neurasthenia'...that was what all of Freuds patients got diagnosed with...fatigue, pain, swelling, nausea...but I guess it got cured, because NO ONE suffers from that anymore (LOL) The Chinese diagnoses 'Cherry stone' for throat anxiety 3000 years ago.
In the 32nd chapter of Genesis, Jacob suffers the first documented TMS attack in History.

@Baseball65
I want to take a moment to thank you again for always promoting this method: Sarno page 77. I am extremely exhausted by the exploration of my rage, which has involved 10 years of therapy and more recently three years of internal family systems therapy. I have journaled ad nauseam. I think for all these reasons, I tend to focus lately more on the anxiety side of my symptoms, trying to soothe myself and calm my hyper sensitive nervous system, vs. focusing on rage. But this might be a mistake.

I always wish that I could find that thing I’m currently angry about and get my symptoms to subside. But I never have been able to. I love what you say here about chipping away at it. It’s worth the effort and I also like the advice to continually focus on your psychological issues to tell your brain that you are onto what it’s doing. I’m feeling more recently resolved to go back to journaling and looking a little harder at things, once again. Last night, I had the rare experience of waking up and remembering a dream perfectly, and it was something I was really mad about in the past that I had no idea was really on my mind now, but obviously it was because I dreamt about it. I think this is a small example of what you’re talking about the tip of the iceberg More than anything I want to say to myself and everyone on this forum—we can’t give up. People like @Baseball65 show all of us that we can have a life. We can prevail. It’s just a matter of doing the work and persisting. Thank you, Baseball, for your relentless promotion of Sarno tactics for liberation from TMS.
