Thank you, Dan. I hope my story gives people hope that I was desperately searching for just a few months ago, being passed around from doctor to doctor, with an ever growing list of symptoms, feeling utterly broken and alone. That no matter how awful it feels, and how desperate you might feel, this stuff works, just keep at it!! This is what helped me, and what TMS taught me. At the end of the day, this is an individual journey ❤ Georgina
I could cry listening to this story. So inspiring. Thank you so much
Thank you for not sparing a single detail, including acne! I’ve always wondered if that was related. Hvala od srca 💗
Articulate, lovely, inspiring. Thank you ❤
Georgina- thank you for sharing your journey. Your story resonates with me and made me feel like I’m further along than I previously thought. You are an inspiration! I’ve been avoiding doing gym stuff other than walking in the read mill because of the pain that flares when I’m on the elliptical or weight training. I’m going to apply your method.
You have given me hope!!!
I am proud of you Georgina, you are so strong. Which book did you find thr most useful? ❤❤🎉🎉🎉
TMS is basically PTSD of the body. It could certainly begin with an emotional trigger, or distraction technique of the brain, but it could also begin with a physical trigger (injury). However, regardless of how the pain first came about, once that pain response is initiated, the brain develops fear of future pain. The brain mapping for those parts of the body become LARGER -- you become more sensitive to and aware of what got damaged, or of what the brain BELIEVES got damaged. The same thing happens in emotional trauma -- blood circulation in the brain moves from the hippocampus (the creativity/learning center of the brain), to the amygdala (the pain/danger sensor of the brain). It is a protective mechanism. The body has the intelligence to heal or adapt to any tissue damage rather quickly. The trouble comes when the body does not resolve the trauma and return to safety. The pain alert becomes hyper-sensitive and easy to trigger. And the tension in the body comes as a RESULT of the electrical shock that the brain fires off to warn us that it is scared of a threat (real, or not). The pain signal is created in the brain FIRST, and then the body responds to the feeling of painful shock by tensing up the tissue. If you’ve ever seen a person being electrocuted (hopefully only on TV,) you know how the body seizes up with tension in reaction to electricity.
This is why people who have childhood trauma (Complex-PTSD) are more prone to experience TMS. Their brains keep sending out a heightened emotional or physical shock in moments that are no longer appropriate or useful. If their personalities have become hypervigilant and anxious, or possibly dissociated and avoidant, then their nervous systems struggle to process through the emotions necessary to restore safety signals back to the brain. This is how a PTSD brain gets stuck in a habit of signaling a pain response, even when the real or perceived danger has passed. So, if you struggle to resolve an emotional wound back to safety, you will likely also struggle to resolve a physical wound back to safety. But the danger is no longer truly there--It is all an electrical response. It is how the brain gets programmed during a period of extreme stress. And this is why when you tune into your emotions, understand what's going on and train your nervous system how to resolve stressful feelings, the circuits in your brain learn how to shift ALL overreacting pain responses back to safety. Every flare-up is an opportunity to re-wire the brain. Just as with healing any form of PTSD, you have to trigger the alert program in order to change the alert program and coach it back to safety.
Anyway, hope this essay was helpful for someone out there. I realize its not exactly in alignment with Dr. Sarno's theory, but I found that framing TMS as a form of PTSD enhanced my understanding and made it clear how the body can experience pain without there being any real structural damage. I think this is the essence of how pain becomes chronic, and I think quite possibly, how all chronic conditions work. Happy healing :)
Thank you for your long insightful comment. It resonates with what I went/ go through and was very helpful!
Happy healing to you too!❤️🩹

Q
As a person from balkans, i can resonate with Georgina a lot. Much appreciated
Too many of us hear the word "emotional" and feel broken,shamed, embarrassed. Societal thing. Thankfully its changing. Thanks for sharing.
I'm learning that I don't have to believe every thought that pops into my head or every symptom that lives in my body.
That was such a HUGE learning for me, too. And funny thing - the idea first took hold from a bumper sticker I saw one day out on a walk.
Used to suffer muscle spasms and was debilitating, the technique I used that worked somehow was envisioning a photograph when I was a two year old, and pointed out to my brain “you are hurting that innocent child in such a wicked way” and it stopped, ever since I don’t suffer it anymore.
Such a simple concept when it really clicks...I say to myself alot of things like "I am self contained"
Great video. I too am looking after my mum who had a stroke last week. I won’t lie I’m struggling not to freak out! As you know I have chronic dizziness and off balance and health anxiety my whole life. Obviously due to trauma stress etc. I have really bad nausea today after going and doing coffee and breakfast for my mum. Dan I listen to you every day because you are my lifeline right now. I tell myself I am safe and remember what you said about not having to be stressed because life gets lifey. I’m really working on it but it’s very challenging at the moment. Keep doing what you are doing ❤️
Keep going, we're all behind you
Awww thank you x
💕💕
Everything will be okay. You are not alone.
You are not alone!Just starting my journey!
Georgina you are such a bright, eloquent and brave young woman. Thanks for sharing your success story!
Love what she said about needing to care for herself. I never have always looked after everyone else. X
You’re glowing, Georgina! I can see how powerful this work has been for you! ❤❤❤
I LOVED hearing this inspiring story! Georgina is so encouraging…loved the detail and yet…the simplicity. “There is NOTHING wrong with me.” The stories with “structural evidence” for pain are especially important to share and this is a good one.🙏🏻💓
This is the first success story I've ever listened to. I resonated so much with this ladies story. Gives me hope. Thank you.
Georgina s story is so relatable: childhood trauma, personality development (good driven perfect nice ….) then we re fearful. I use these as free therapy sessions. Lotsa great tips thoughts ideas! Thankyou
Wow wow Georgina got several times emotional 😢 soo happy for you 😁😁😁🥳🥳🥳🥳 and your husband is amazing 👏 i am blessed to have a wonderful partner too. Sending you loads of love ❤️ and to you Dan ❤️ ty ty ty your story made me more determined as in I can do this 💪🦸♀️ 😁😘
I too was watching true crime..ironically at night when i had trouble sleeping ..and also was hooked on the news ...its interesting how what kind of media we consume affects our subconscious. I discovered the Gaia channel on Amazon prime and found lots of more enriching and uplifting stuff to watch when you feel tense . I watch these recovery videos on this channel also to relax .
Addicted to negative content.😢
I was watching also the true crime stories every night. Do you think that this impacted my subconscious and resulted in fight or flight state? Thanks
@@naimoulinakibarde1995 I personally stopped watching that stuff because for me personally I feel it contributed to the fight or flight response. You can try stopping it for a few months and see if it helps!
I started a new RUclips channel and only follow positive content but my god it is so hard to avoid negative content. I had to download a chrome extension that disable all ads and gets rid of the homepage and suggested videos. So now I only see the channels I'm subbed to.
I was listening to 911 emergency calls at like 3 am before 💀
Wow what a story. And in my opinion it's really important to hear the backstory. We can. Learn so much from what was happening in people's lives when they got symptoms. It can be triggering so I get that but don't just skip ahead. TMS happens in context
Thank you both, this is an interview that I needed to hear.
You’re amazing Georgina ❤ so amazing at telling your story. So sorry you went through all you did as a child x
Joy and peace and safety seems to be the cure
33:10 is when she gets to the healing part, for those of you who may not be interested in the whole back story.
For people like me who have multiple issues it helps to know the issues this young woman had. Extremely helpful to me
Especially her backstory was helpful because it resonates with my youth and gives me more understanding how my brain works. I think her complete story is very interesting and helpful 🙏🏻❤️
Back story is extreme important and what helps people get their aha moment!
Thank you. x
Thank you for sharing Georgina! I’m glad you are doing better. Your story resonates with me so much. I also had issues since I was a kid, developing into IT band syndrome fatigue, fog, gum ache, lower back pain, stiff shoulders and other issues as an adult. I know how it is to feel guilty because of symptoms that go unrecognized. Running was one of my only escapes that was taken from me because of increasing symptoms - which only increased the fear as I gained weight and stayed home during Covid and felt hopeless. But thanks to Dan and others, over the last couple years most of them have lifted and am finally working on the root issue of shame and fear. Hoping and expecting to one day be able to share my story as well 🙏
I actually would love to be a success story and oh boy it would be amazing! I believe It would benefit those of us in the anxiety cycle x
Wonderful interview. Georgina, you articulated your journey so well. Thank you for sharing your tips during your recovery.
Georgina is a very brave individual. Thank you Georgina for sharing your story, it is so very helpful on many levels. God bless you.
Thank you so much for sharing your incredible story Georgina! So inspiring and gives us all so much hope. Thank you Dan for all you do. “Don’t convince yourself that I have to become a new person in order to get better” damn, I really REALLY needed to hear that! I’ve been putting myself under so much pressure creating more fear with that idea and feels a relief to let it go ❤
You were Amazing sweetheart!! You gave me a whole lot of encouragement to keep believing that full recovery is indeed possible ❤️🙏🏼🦋❤️⭐️
Fabulous success story! Thank you so much for sharing, as it gives us all hope.
I understand you needing meditation and mindfulness--it’s the time where we turn the switch of our brain to Zen--why not give our mind a break? What a wonderful story you have given us. You are inspirational to us -you are a Super Woman!
God Georgina we could be sisters from what you have described (personality wise).
Thank you for mentioning the inability to loose weight thing.
I was a competitive athelete when I got extremely unwell. I gained an extreme amount of weight and still struggle with loosing it. But it gives me the hope as I recover, that the metabolism will pick up again!
I also have been parentified. My mother is a wonderful person but very fearful and naive. So as I got older I became more of a parent to her!
Also Georgina I just got my puppy as well! She is 75% toy poodle and 25% spaniel :) and she is now the being I care for ❤
I also live in the UK but am not originally from here.
I am sorry to hear about some of your experiences. When it comes to weight, if you've had childhood trauma, excess weight is perceived as an armour of sorts that keeps you sheltered from the world when you are stressed/suffering. I am not fully there yet, but I am starting to see that my body is desperately holding onto it for protection, to make itself invisible in a way, too. This is why I am doing inner child work and other stuff cause this healing is deeper for me than just eliminating the neurological sensations of perceived pain. Georgina
Gives me hope....🙏
Oh Georgina your story resonates with me so much, specifically in 2 areas: keeping on despite HIGH pain levels. I have never been bed bound but have pushed through some really tough touch days. The other thing is the urge to solve my TMS/physical problems by moving. I only moved two hours away from home but I have regretted it every day for 7 years.
Wow I mean wow what a woman so strong what a life an experience. Sending that lil girl and young women a vibrational hug. I could relate so much. Thanku for ur story. ❤❤❤❤ trusting ur self and loving urself was the answer not everyone else in the world dr teachers govt the world was telling u go within. Thank god u did that now much love to u. It’s what I got from her story ❤❤❤❤ur clicked either me. Thnku
The first thing I thought when listening to this TMS Success Story was WOW. Even though I still am dealing with chronic pain, I am in a very good place with how I deal with it and keeping my body calm.
This young woman's story was so overwhelming to listen too; but was a great example of how powerful the brain is when it comes to chronic pain and symptoms in the body.
Wow Georgina, You are Amazing. I am so happy for you. Your story is so inspiring. Thanks Dan for posting. 💕💕
Such an inspiring life story, and so well expressed. I thoroughly appreciated hearing it. Many thanks♥️
And Dan, your expressions are priceless of how proud you are of her journey when she hits on some of your principles.
What an amazing human being you are, Georgina! Thank you for your story, it pulled me out from the hopelessness I occasionally experience. I found myself in many of your traits and the way you split the story into stages helped me envision the bigger picture of my own journey. You are incredibly intelligent, brave, beautiful, and I am so happy I watched the video. Thank you so much, Dan!
It warms my heart that my journey resonated with you. I hope you remember that there's always hope, you just have to choose it ❤
@@elalbafordamon Thank you, thank you!
Fantastic inspiration!
Really appreciate this. I am inspired I can get well🙏🏽
Amazing interview and SO inspiring. I wish you every happiness, Georgina💕!
So well articulated and I can personally relate to everything, congratulations on your recovery and thank you both for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing Georgina! And thanks Dan for being a consistent messenger. Great interview!
What a great interview! Such a spirited, impassioned, intelligent woman. I have been through what she is talking about and relate so much. Thank you both for this amazing video.
Thank you Dan and Georgina! Such an inspirational conversation! Also because you’re open about your youth and how it wired you. It helped me to understand myself better in this journey ❤🙏🏻
So happy you found piece of mind……you are a warrior🙏🌈Georgina!
Incredible interview…. Gives so much insight, hope and confidence to others to stay on this path. Heartfelt thanks and gratitude to you.
Thank you so much , Dan and Georgina. Such a wonderful and inspiring success story.
I really loved this story! Georgina is a beacon of hope. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, stories and successes
Sounds like me. Peefectionist responsible dependable a real trooper.
Woooohoooooo! This was a good one! Teaching myself that I am safe has been lifechanging already and I know I have work to do but that hope, that calm I can now help myself return to has given me so much hope. I am no longer trying to heal myself, I am living my life with symptoms that are a gift because I can now realize whats happening is that life gets lifey....and I am safe and can handle it.
Thank you Georgina for really going into it for us..hearing others journeys and their success is very helpful in a space like this.
Thank you for nerdish detailed explanation. I feel you and hope to achieve lasting you. Best wishes
Thank you Georgina this story is amazing you are so articulate & the way you told your back story was perfect! We all have these pasts so similar yet different but long & indepth & all we want is answers! You make me feel so good & trusting if the work I am doing xx
Way to go Georgina! You’ve done amazing work and I hope you are soooo super proud of yourself! I sure am! ❤
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing Georgina & Dan a very inspiring story! You explain the process of recovery so eloquently ❤ I resonate with the stages of recovery ..it morphs into a new way of being a different response to physical sensations- a non reaction! This stuff works - believe me it’s easy to slip up - the more you implement the more calm will become your default response. Wishing you all the very best Georgina - your story has helped me a lot a timely reminder and of course more evidence xxx
Wow this is an eye opener. I have taken care of people since I was 9 due to my parents not taking care of us. I've had TMS all through life. I now realize this. I was one time.in a deep dark place but got myself out of it on my own. I now realize I was doing some of this work way back in the day too much to type hopefully when I become a success story I can tell it all this was wonderful thanks for sharing
Me too. Took care of my mum who was an alcoholic and looked after my sisters. Fear has always been prevalent in my life . Dan is amazing x
It is so sad to hear how we all just get so stuck in a spiral that we think we are broken everywhere. I’m so thankful that I’m no longer in that place and neither is she
My parents & siblings were abusive. I always felt unsafe growing up.
Thank you for your story. I have ITBS so I’m truly hoping it is part of TMS. (Wanted to add that the NHS is a beautiful thing with areas of excellence but it is underfunded.)
SOOOO Very Helpful!! Thank you!! Makes so much sense for me reinforcing all I’m learning about TMS!! Especially the last part of your journey!💕
Omg it’s like hearing my own personality my own brain. It’s unbelievable.
You are my inspiration through this journey! I’m doing similar things you learned to do.
The young lady is a Sarno whiz. So many parallels to I am sure many TMS patients beside myself,.
Omg same with me when i leave my house i would get headaches …the thing is headaches are always there do a degree but when i left the house ot was 8/10 as opposed to 2/10 all the time…my eyes would bulge ..get red and puffy whenever i d get headaches
She’s right on the money about the lockdowns and school system.
It’s an overuse injury. I got it when I went from 5k to 7k running suddenly as I joined a running club instead of slowly increasing. All I did was rest for a couple of weeks and it was fine. But maybe it was the fear of increasing all of a sudden. Interesting.
How long ago did this supposed overuse injury occur? The body heals. If this "injury" was long ago, why haven't you healed? Perceived danger is the most likely cause of all of it. IsThisPDP.com - how many of the FIT questions do you answer as true?
@@PainFreeYou it did heal after a week or 2 of rest about 7 years ago. But my long covid (fear, perceived danger) is the reason for my issues now from past 2 and a half years. Thanks
Dear Georgina - your energy level in caring for others is admirable. Thank you for your love of the TMS community! I have a quick question for you, Dan et al - at the beginning of the story, "swelling" was mentioned ( I believed with respect to your leg). Is there any consensus as to whether or not swelling (eg light ankle swelling) can be a TMS symptom/sensation? Again, many thanks.
I had this problem when I started my recovery. But I am living proof that it is cause I had a lot of swelling everywhere. None after I implemented everything I talked about. Georgina
thank you!
we may not NEED practices like meditation, but if they feel good, why not :)
I do meditation and eft tapping every morning not to cure myself of anything or fix anything I just like to regulate my nervous system and start my day that way
❤Hello Dan❤
❤Hello Georgina❤
I loved this success story. I'm wondering about exposure to pain. I have the impression that Georgina exposed herself and succeeded in integrating safety even with excruciating pain. But I have the impression that my pain becomes intolerable if I expose myself to new positions. How can I make like Georgina and teach my brain that even for (very) intense sensations "I'm safe"? I'd like to reach that point. Thank you for your help. Cheers ❤
Hi❤ Like you just said, it's nothing but an impression. Your sensation, although high and "intolerable" is harmless. Trust me, I thought my sensation was intolerable, too. It certainly felt like that since I contemplated ending my life. However, you only need to endure it for a few seconds to start with. Small wins every day. And gradually increase time. Myself, like Steve Ozanich, I went all in but that's not necessarily your journey. I started with just bending my leg in bed and holding it for 10 seconds instead of avoiding the movement all the time. Walking around the building knowing I have nothing to fear cause no further damage can be done to my leg. I was healthy. It was just neurological pain. A sensation. No a signal of real danger to my limb. Separate pain from DANGER. and it becomes easier. Georgina
Anyone else baffled at how beautiful she is? Like seriously movie star level beautiful
There are so many success people from UK. I think it because their medical system has waiting. That may be why they look for real solutions.
this came to me last night? I was trying to figure a solution and it came to me that what is going on is a conversation between your subconscious mind and your brain, albeit a silent one ie your subconscious mind is feeling rage and is sending this message to your brain, your brain sees this as danger and in turn sets off the pain as to distract you from the painful emotion of rage? So then the solution would be to intercept this message and replace it with a message of safety and whala pain goes away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the problem is how do you intercept the message? I believe if this can be solved by way of a technique by a good psychologist it would be ground breaking in the mind body space? What do you think?
The American system is nonfunctional too. It isn't nhs.
Does that mean we need to slow down? I struggle to listen to my body
Be in the moment. Only focus on now.
Dan, do you have people with TMJ? I grind and clench my teeth at night so much and as a result my muscles in my face and head are so overworked and a have pain, headaches and migraines. I'd love to hear from you as I would love to know if this could benefit me. I'd love to be a success story too one day. What is your perspective on that?
Focus on safety overall. When the brain feels safer - muscles loosen and clenching can lessen as well. Success stories that mentioned TMJ as a symptom:

@@PainFreeYou thank you
I wish there was another word for "safety" as it triggers me for some reason. Any suggestions?
What word resonates/feels right for you? Try a few out & see what fits. Some that come to mind are Settled, Freedom, Secure, Snug, Okay, Fine, Good, Solid, Protected, Harmony, Balanced etc...hope this helps.💜
@@josiejo117 Brilliant!
"cozy" and "coziness" work 😊
I have many of the same symptoms and experiences (except living in a war zone, thank God). THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your success story. You are awesome!
@@StarHarvestOfficial Love that!
♥️🙏♥️
Georgina - do you think doing the childhood trauma work was necessary for your recovery?
It's a tricky one. It's not what got me better - the realization that I am safe and healthy did. Security in that. However, it was easier to feel safer when I understood myself better and started healing my childhood traumas. It increased my overall happiness, positivity and inner peace. Hope that makes sense.
