Thank you so much Jim for helping me get to this place in my life and for letting me share my story
I have a family member that is having terrible headaches I hoping this helps
@@dualmass I hope they’ll be open to trying this approach.
@@rachels7650 Thanks for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for sharing your story Rachel and being so transparent; hoping this helps others out there !
I loved this interview. I can relate so much! My migraine is almost nonexistent now. And usually I see what I hadn’t expressed or felt the day before. I started learning about this in September 2020. I’m 65 and life is much better. I have listened to many of your You Tubes. Thank you! I too had private counseling. And I belong to a small group being led by a Mind Body Mentor. And I know it is life long work.
Great recovery!
Great to hear! Thank you for sharing. It's an amazing club to be a part of ;)
Super inspiring testimonial! And my TMS is not even migraines yet I see many parallels in Rachel’s story. Gracias 🙏🏼
Great call out about secondary fear. This has been a recent revelation for me. I realized that my secondary fear is the fear of falling, collapsing, or fainting due to the sensations. This realization helps to steer me back into the presence and makes it easier to accept the symptom/sensation as it is. I’m getting to the point where I am genuinely comfortable with saying “And if I do fall, okay, so be it. It’s fine. I know there is nothing wrong with me.” In reality, I haven’t even fallen once, so I have that as evidence that I am really okay too. I know it’s just my brain’s reaction to stress and powerful emotions. It feels so counterintuitive but to be able to stand up to the symptoms in this relaxed way is quite powerful. Learning how to practice this consistently.
Yes great observations!
I love hearing about your experience, thank you for sharing!
Any advice tips for this. I also have the same issue but still very hard for me to leave the house for a long time. Cause it feels like i can handle it for x amount time but if the symptoms of secondary fair gets to overwhelming i need to get out..
Thank you to both of you for sharing this inspirational story!
Thank you so much again, Rachel. I saw an interview you did on another channel and commented and you commented back to me and I’ve been taking your words to heart, especially the part where you said you would take a triptan originally right away because you didn’t want the migraine to progress and get even worse, but then you eventually had to start just sitting with it to see if it would get worse and most of the time, it would stay a low level or go away. I’ve been doing that! And I actually went almost 5 days in a row without taking my Maxalt (Rizatriptan) last week. I also didn’t take it yesterday. That’s huge for me! I was taking it daily, usually 2 or 3 times a day because the first one wasn’t working like it used to. I really really appreciated your comment back to me. You are truly an inspiration for us migraine sufferers! ❤
Great job Stephanie sounds like you’re on the right track right now learning to stand up and confront this thing because it’s not dangerous keep going!!!
I love your comment! Gives great hope for me too!
Thank you for sharing your story Rachel. So many parallels. Interesting to hear about personality traits and how they can be changed. Great interview. Thanks Jim. Good to hear a migraine recovery story.
Thank you for taking the time to watch
This was outstanding!!! Great work and interview Jim! Rachel you are so inspirational!
Love you both ❤❤
Thank you Jeannie for getting me started on my TMS journey. I am so lucky to have you as my friend.
Great recovery story
Great and important conversation!
I had chronic migraines, took magnesium advised by co-workers and after a month I never had one again and that was 10 years ago ? Placebo ? I don’t know. However, about 6 years ago when my dad had a stroke, he passed and then my mom had a stroke and needs support, mostly for her mental health . Now I have pelvic pain and all over body aches, especially in morning and at 6:00 at night. It”s really uncomfortable.
Forgiveness is the Only Answer to Peace of Mind. Once you have done the deed or someone else has done the deed..there is nothing else To Do! If it is a situation you can remove yourself that would be helpful. Your body does indeed Speak!
Yes I agree. To get to forgiveness one needs to acknowledge his or her anger and release that then forgiveness comes naturally!
@@thepainpt yes! Jim..I have a question. Do you believe emotions can be stored in the cells in your body and be released later..after the fact? Or is is all come just as it happens?
Yes absolutely that’s what we are talking about here pain stored in the body from past emotions or present emotions that Have been triggered
@@thepainpt Jim..even like 20 years ago? Even if you’re feeling better about it now?
@@thepainpt my husband left me 20 years ago and now he back. It brings back old hurtful memories. I forgave him years ago..but he was gone in another city..but now he is back in my life. Do I just forgive all over again?
What is TMS? I am new to your channel.
I had migraine 1998 for ten months after my fall in tailbone but I got rid of those it was everyday but now it's body pain everyday TMS fear
Do u think it’s tms if someone who never had headaches, literally suddenly got severe daily chronic headaches?
No medical tests show anything wrong
Why don’t people take care of themselves like their car?
The car came with a maintenance manual. No one taught us how delicate our psyche is. As children we were told to sit down and be quiet.
Jim, I'm in the UK can u work with me online?
What worrying and a thought does all starts with a thought.huh
Hello sir I have somatoform disorder any help me ....I am hopeless
No it's tms have you got pain by muscle tension aka fear
I'm really glad you found relief but it's disingenuous to infer that just changing your mindset is going to help everyone. I've had migraines for over 44 years, combined with trigeminal neuralgia, diagnosed with an MRI. There's solid physical evidence of the causes of my migraines and it isn't trauma or fear or my mindset or whatever.
Not all migraines are psychosocial in nature like any condition. However the emotional brain can play a part in many cases. In Rachel’s case she found relief in treating her migraines as TMS.
I think it’s important to remember that you might really have a structural issue, however like Dan Buglio talks about, it might not be the structural issue causing the pain. For a lot of people, it’s the fear surrounding the symptoms. It’s the brain turning up the dial on the pain. It’s the danger alarm going off. I hope that makes sense. I’m no expert but trying to explain it the way I’ve interpreted it. I have chronic/daily migraines and I have really been trying this approach since July. I am not 100% better by any means. But I have hope and I haven’t had hope EVER surrounding these migraines (until learning about TMS). Feel better ❤️🩹 I know it sucks!
