The worst part is when you experience being pain free for a period of time and then flare. The emotion is sadness and frustration. Thank you Dan for this reminder. I needed it badly today for many reasons. I did do things I rarely do in the past 2 weeks and was blindsided by the flare. You are the best and I am grateful for you😊
I really am grateful for you. I seem to listen when I'm flaring. I have worked for 45 years to understand why I live in pain and I've made great strides in recent years with TMS, you, Curable etc. I've had a terrible flare the past 2 weeks. How did you know I needed this today? Thank you because that was me...I did a 20 hour car trip and had no pain and I was ecstatic. I told everyone!! Thank you for this. So grateful for you. I am 70😊
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your experience. That road trip. wow!!! Awesome. That's PROOF of what's possible. It's PROOF you are already okay. The brain just hasn't accepted that FACT....YET. You can do this.
Thanks Dan, I only get about 6 hours sleep. Today I was laying in bed trying HARD to go back to sleep. Slowly I started to feel physically sick. I usually get out of bed at that point. However today I realized what was happening. I Spoke to my brain and reassured it that it was not dangerous for me to be awake. You know what happened ,,,yep, the sick feeling left. Thanks again!
Such a good one, Dan. You described me to a T. I had two weeks of bliss a couple of months ago - throwing hardballs to my grandkids with ZERO pain. I was positive I had finally turned the corner. Then the doubts crept back in, and a lot of discomfort ever since. At least I realized comfort and release from TMS is really possible. Thanks agan.
Dan, thanks for your videos. I listen most days the past 2+ years. Could you do a video dedicated to addressing symptoms that are not just about pain, but rather non pain things like IBS and dizziness. Those are my main issues and I know they are tms, but still trying to not overthink and stress out about it. I am sure there are many others dealing with non pain tms symptoms. Thanks again for all you do.
THANKS, JASON THIS IS THE BALANCE WE NEED. I THINK THE "SYMPTOMS" INCLUDE A VARIETY OF DISTURBANCES OTHER THAN PHYSICAL WE NEED ENCOURAGEMENT WITH. TODAY'S MESSAGE WAS SO ON TARGET. THANKS, DAN IT REALLY HELPED.
Hi . I also deal with dizziness and IBS on top of the pains. In my opinion it’s not necessary to treat every symptom on its own. It all fits under the great nervous system sensitivity or pdp / pds( symptoms)-umbrella so the ‘cure’ is just the same.If the brain feels safe again all these symptoms will vanish.. It’s western medicine that want us to think each symptom needs a special treatment/ specialist but in this case they are really wrong. Have a good recovery!🌺

Another perfectly timed interjection of calm. The description of doing well and then a massive flare sounded exactly like me! It’s SO frustrating after a prolonged good spell. I keep reminding myself that if I can have three good weeks then I can get back there. It doesn’t help that the sensations are spreading. My brain has gone off the hook. It’ll settle though. This helps. Thanks, as always, Dan x
Yes of course Alison, you will get back on track. You already experienced good periods so that is proof that your brain works flawlessly! Wishing you more and more good periods in the near future!🙏🌺🍀
Very helpful Dan just listened to it I did a awful lot of course by emptying corines house and did more walking and went on a bike and did ironing and on top of that grieving over Corine. Maybe that explains my flare up. My brain perceives a lot of danger. I have learned now to stay calm self kindness talk to my brain ssst there is no danger I am actually ok. Slow down more because I was really pushing through not good and eventually my brain will get the message that I am ok. I want to say also that I love being in the zoom calls I don't talk much not yet courageous enough the times I did talk I was very nervous and was only thinking how to say things right so that I was so busy with that that I didn't hear what people had to say. In time I will more at ease I hope. OK thank you for this video love you 😘😘😘
I'm thrilled you are enjoying the Zoom sessions. Yes, you will feel more and more at ease. It is a kind and loving group. If you have a question or comment, speak up. We would love to her from you.
Thanks for this video! I completely agree, I have had reoccurrence of pain either in the same places or different places and I have seen where fear has made it worse or last longer. Once realizing this I have never since had that same level of pain and today my pain does not stop my life at all. I am still trying to get over the hump of pain every time I am stressed or emotional but this pain does not interfere with my life at all. Your videos have helped tremendously!
This explains me well. Couple months not great. April May vg. June July new changing different symptoms. Im telling my brain its not tissue damage. It cant be or it wouldnt move or disappear then come back. Love these daily posts. We count on them as reinforcement and reassurance
Hi Tom. I also experience new symptoms as time goes by. My trick is that I don’t go to the doctor immediately anymore ( if there is nothing life threatening in my eyes).. then I tell my brain: okay playing a game here? I’m not giving in, and I will let it be .. mostly in a couple of weeks it completely disappears and if not then I go to see my doctor to ask for some clarity. Take care!🌺
@@Inge508 hi Inge! Isnt it amazing that even the obvious (symptoms moving stopping starting changing location) our brain can still be stubborn in accepting its not a real health threat. Im literally trying to catch every ill thought i concoct and STOP it!! Wonderful to hear from you. You re ok too
The second I start to feel "oh shit..." & worried it'll be bad again, I instantly replace it with my 1000% deep belief I DESERVING if feeling good. I used to say to my therapist that I "just wanted 6 months of feeling good." Now I know i am deserving of lifetime of feeling good at .
Dan - I so appreciate your daily videos. They’re part of my evening routine and I go to sleep with your words of advice and encouragement in my mind as a way to support my healing. Thank you, again.
@@PainFreeYou In a very good way YES! I'm thankful for it (my most recent TMS symptoms are like RLS - so I need the calm Dan videos to get to sleep!) 🙂
Good as usual..I though started engaging with the life and the activities but ended up with the shoulder vtendinosis and the bursitis that completely freaked me out..
I recently did a blood test to see if my pain was related to some disase and I had higher Ck (ceratine kinase) as usual. I was wondering if this could be from tms? Ck is related to muscles in the body. I am curious if you have seen this in clients.
Thx Dan. My pain incidents are tricky. Even tho I know this., I been in great fear lately. For example (pain in my eye) - had it checked before (last flair around 2 1/2 yrs) and eye was fine (doc said something about dry eye issues )… now I’m having a flair. Watched a video of yours, felt better for 3 days- then eye pain came back yesterday. Not sure why but my fear levels been more than they ever have before. You’d think having been thru this I’d be used to it by now. My pain rotates around Into areas that are ambiguous or u feel u might need checked (things like teeth, eyes, ears, abdomen) … and most of the time, doctors find nothing but I struggle over “do I need to have this looked at? Because it’s my eye!” If there were an actual issue, I can never see it myself or chalk it up To something explainable (so my mind will not let it go). For example., I have no fear over back pain or headaches bc thst stuff is doesn’t seem threatening. But pain in my eye leads me into really difficult catastrophic thinking. So I’m always in a cycle of “Omg it’s scary it’s my eye” and “do I need to have this looked at?” (Which is exhausting) If I go and doc finds nothing, my brain releases it. I’m to the point I don’t know when or if something is actually a thing I need to make an appt for. The pain symptoms move around my body. I know it’s probably TMS., but I’ve been really struggling with way more fear than ever. I’m pretty exhausted by the cycles of this, the fear., the ambiguity and the pain, and trying to decide If should get it checked (bc i am sick of doctors appts). Anyway, Ty for your daily vids bc they do help me talk myself down when I’m feeling super freaked out.
If you can be pain free for 3 days, what explains that other than TMS/perceived danger pain? The roving nature of your pains is MORE proof it's the brain. You can learn the foundation of what I teach on my getting started page: www.PainFreeYou.com/start
The serenity prayer: "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change Courage to change the things I can And the wisdom to know the difference" ❤
Sorry to hear that. Go right back to the mindset you had when the symptoms got better. Lower the fear like you did when the symptoms improved previously and they will improve again. ruclips.net/video/Ez9Ez49M8Ig/видео.html
@@Immortalsoul669 Yes, exactly. It will go when you get the mindset dialed in again and successfully neutralize the fear. Often the fear is subconscious.
Is it possible that my brain perceives as dangerous when I try to break up with my toxic gf and flares up the symptoms because it's more safe not being alone with the symptoms ( brain's opinion ) ?
Looking back at a very toxic marriage of 21 years, where I started developing chronic pains in the last 3 years.. I would now never wait 21 years to step out of it. Toxic people can destroy so much and there are so many other people and things in life that can bring you respect and happiness. Think your brain is wanting you to reflect really good on where you want to go in the future. All the best on your journey and lots of happiness!🌺🌺🌺
Yes, any type of perceived danger (fear of being alone, fear of her response to you breaking up) can ALL flare up symptoms. Symptoms are basically a Perceived Danger Response. That's it. Teach your brain you will be fine no matter what happens with her. You are strong enough to handle the emotions. You don't need pain too. :-)
Hi Dan. I’m loving your short but to the point videos. I am totally convinced that I can get rid of my CFS/Fibro symptoms. I do have a question for you regarding waking up with pain. I’m working at building up my tolerance and living life knowing that I’m not doing harm to my body by using it. What is going on when I go to bed after an active day with only moderate pain and wake up the next morning and can’t move with excruciating pain everywhere? If pain is not in the body but rather in the mind, what is going on? Thanks in advance
@@PainFreeYou Thanks Dan. Very helpful. I’ll stop analyzing and just keep reminding myself that I’m not injured and that the pain is just there to remind me to relax and to feel my feelings. Now I just need to find a way to relive my insomnia….
