TMS Discussion ThreadsThe following is a list of links to some of the better discussions from our old forum. However, we encourage you tovisit our new foruminstead.- Another syndrome name: "This is going to be super challenging, but what is it going to take to get at least the TMS docs to agree on one name for tension induced pain? I notice Dr. Schubiner's name for TMS is MBS - Mind Body Syndrome. Brady names it AOS - Autonomic Overload Syndrome."
- Morning Back Stiffness: "No matter what I do, every morning on waking, I have a very stiff lower back. I sometimes can barely stand. Usually I do a cobra like yoga position (sought of like a Sphinx), and some hamstring stretches and my back is better enough to get through the day."
- An email from Journaling Expert Susan Derozier: "I recently received the following message from Susan Derozier, who instructs classes on therapeutic journaling and wrote the book Therapeutic Journaling. "Dear Forest, I was pleased to discover your site and note my book mentioned on it.”"
- A common physiology?: "Dr. Schubiner is also skeptical of the oxygen deprivation theory. Having talked with him about TMS a number of times, I definitely get the impression that he is someone who cares an awful lot about science, so I tend to trust his skepticism."
- Understanding current pain using the Presence Process: "I've been doing the Presence Process and I'm moving into week 9. It's been very very difficult emotionally and, even more so, it's been difficult to believe it's going to have an effect on my tms. Perhaps that's because I've tried so many other things in the past and none of them have worked."
