When my dog first came from the shelter to our home she was so afraid she even didn´t want to be touched. And there were a lot off other difficulties. I had to start a really patient "conversation" with her to show her that she has a totally safe place now and that she is respected with all her needs. It took quite a time and we did it. Now we are THE dream team. Maybe my brain is kind of a shelter dog either, doing its own things only because of lacking conversation......... Thank you Dan!
I LIKE THE APPROACH YOU TOOK WITH THIS DOG AND HOW THE SAME APPROACH CAN BE APPLIED TO US. THANKS FOR INSIGHT
Lovely message.We should give ourselves the same kind consideration that we give away freely to others.I have had a similar experience with a feral cat that with patience and kind words became the most beautiful loving companion.
YES this is exactly right! Our nervous systems are very similar to a scared shelter animal. Overtime, as you beautifully shared, our nervous system begins to trust and regulates.
We had the same experience with our cat from the shelter. She hid behind the toilet for days.
Healed from TMS! Praise God. Got to some point where I just decided to stop focusing, after doing alll the work and just move on with life. Then one day realized, oh wow. I don't hurt anymore. All the best everyone!
But how you did you do that tell me plz
@@sasirai4679 Sasi, everytime I would think about the pain, I'd do what Dr. Sarno said in Healing back pain, to think about my emotions and what's going on with me emotionally. I saw a TMS therapist a couple of times too. Then at some point I got really busy in my career- I didn't have time to think about symptoms, and I just continued living life. I'm also Christian and would constantly say, thank you God for my healing, and would visualize myself well every night before sleeping.
what is TMS?
Did you have severe pain everyday? My problem is that I have so much pain that doesn’t let me go out from home and live life 🥵 It is so hard to think positively in this situation 😓
@@paulanazim2115oh Paula I’m sorry to hear that. As I shared I healed from TMS, but I did work with a TMS /Mindbody psychologist. Alan Langdon’s Pain Psychology center and then changed to Gina Denholm at Moving Beyond Pain. That really helped me, having professional Mindbody therapists to talk to. They were both great. I also joined Menda Health, which was great especially because of the group therapy aspect of it. Every night I’d re-read parts of either ‘Mind body prescription’ by Dr. Sarno or ‘Healing Back Pain by Dr. Sarno.’ It’s a step a day, but healing is 💯 possible and real.
I love that: Fear is just "False Evidence Appearing Real"
Here is my new mantra, "Flare ups gonna flare, but I don't care!"
I always start out by telling my brain I love it.
This is really good! One time when I was at the gym doing my resistance training, I finished up on the treadmill, and while I was walking on the treadmill at a huge incline, I said to my brain in my mind, “see how much fun we can have when you don’t send me all these danger signs?” 🤣🤣🤣
lol wow I like that .
Brilliant !!!!!!
Yes! Bad nights sleep = higher sensations. So glad someone mentioned that. I believe higher anxiety leads to sleeplessness which leads to higher sensations next day.
The cycle that hits us all. When it happens to me through lack of sleep I try telling myself remember everything is magnified because.... But u are safe
Wow. I have been on the cycle countless times and just noticed yesterday that if I had increased fear and anxiety during the day, it affected my sleep at night, which affected the anxiety the following day. Three nights ago I heard a doctor saying that any symptom that the body can produce for a reason, it can produce for NO reason, and be TMS. My brain must’ve loved hearing that because by the time I went to sleep I had almost zero symptoms and I slept a whole 6.5 hours straight that night with no nightmares!!! What a win.
Always for me. If I don’t sleep symptoms get worse.
Me today - four hours sleep.
Me today too. Didn't get much sleep. Exhausted, everything is heightened. Back to Dan's playlist and some deep count of 4 breathing 👌 ❤
I can't sleep at night anymore but i might be in real danger...i live in lebanon and just saw that tanks are approaching our borders & I've seen what they're doing to our neighbor country..too scary. This calms me for a bit though..thx
If I was religious I’d make Dan my god. “Dan, the healing God”😂 I feel like he has given me superpowers. Can’t believe that the solution has been this “simple” all along. I’m rid of insomnia, severe fatigue, extreme cognitive issues and concussion symptoms etc. I have a life to start living again, and it. is. AWESOME💃🏽
Hey! What exactly did you do to get better? I am struggling with chronic fatigue and pain
Thanks so much 🌸
@@lovelymeidiland7803 Creating evidence and deep belief in the fact that NOTHING is wrong with my body or brain. For me it all started with a concussion and insomnia and later I contracted Covid. I went over my course og symptoms. I realized that every time I had flares/setbacks it was at a time I had an increase in fear. For example an extra hit to the head, fear of getting long Covid in addition to my existing symptoms. There were a lot of concrete stories and examples that boosted my fear level and therefore symptoms during my journey. Gaining the accurate knowledge and being able to look at my course of symptoms in hindsight and tie it up to fear gave me a major AHA-moment. Knowing that the fatigue was the cause of a scared brain allowed me to start engaging in activities with safety and for the fatigue to lift.

I don't mean to offend anyone but maybe the brain is smart to worry about survival. Until our last breath, we can figure out eternity. I was very scared of death. Is there a heaven and hell? Thankfully God is merciful and sent his Son to die for us. John 3:16 set me free. Still have a problematic brain and I probably will until the day I die, who knows but now at least I know it has an ending because I know I'm going to heaven. LOVE DAN'S STUFF... his videos and Dr. Sarno has helped me overcome pain, with acceptance of myself, working through the pains that come and go by calming my brain to feel safe. SO GRATEFUL for this information. But let's be realistic this world can be dangerous, but also we can stay calm and trust God to take care of us. I hope you all know Jesus as your Savior. God bless!
Just an amazing video. I don’t know how you come up with new content everyday. I am a cancer survivor and I know I am healed . It has been 4 years since treatment. But it did my heart and brain good to hear you include us survivors in this video. There can be lots of fear surrounding that diagnosis. I thank you with all my heart. You help so many 😊
The mindset truly has been the biggest thing for me. So many times I’ve thought that if I just do more I’ll get better, but I was still focused on fear so symptoms would get worse and I’d freak out and start questioning everything and the cycle would begin again. I’ve finally gotten my mind in the right place and now when symptoms increase I know why and the fear comes down and symptoms start to settle. It really has to be reinforced by your thoughts, and then your behavior teaches your brain you’re actually okay. It’s not easy, but staying consistent is key.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Absolutely. Just can't seem to get it. 👍
@@merildoit’s taken me a long time to get it. It’s still a struggle, but I just have to keep reminding myself that I’m okay and then focus my mind on other things. It’s something I have to practice doing every day. One moment at a time.
Excellent comment 😊
Yes, it is your mind racing and fearful thoughts that trigger the danger in our brain, yes? For me I’m first dealing with vestibular issues because they have stopped me completely but afterward I will focus more on the pain.
I need constant reminders of this Dan.. I need to talk more kindly to it.
Just listening helped my mind to stop panicking.. It's messing with my stomach, and I know there's no issue.. thank you!
Yeah, I agree. I don’t need to “yell” at my brain. Counter productive.
You know there's that saying, "talking to yourself is the first sign of madness"? That's just not true. The power of the spoken word is very powerful! We need to work in unison with our mind, body and spirit not against them. The brain needs to have the message relayed to it that we are, in fact, not in danger but well. Thanking the brain for looking out for us but letting it know that we're not in imminent danger is a perfect example of how we can work with our brain rather than against it.
Thanks for reminding us, Dan. X
Thank you I am going crazy here I have a long flight to catch and my whole body and mind is shaking from anxiety. I will try this one.
This one should be included in your fast start list. Love it
YES!
This vid should be given to every kid❤ Think
Perfect timing today! I had a day yesterday and went down the rabbit hole with my self talk! Talking in a playful kind peaceful voice ( which is what I do with the cats at the shelter I work at- which almost always calms them ) is a great example of how to work with my brain. Thank you ❤
I'm sick with whatever it is for over a month, every blood work shows I'm ok no danger, but my brain was saying opposite. You have no idea how I needed to hear that. Thanks a Million ❤❤❤
This was absolutely God's timing for this video to be today's video❤ I had a very emotional day yesterday. A family member is going through a serious medical thing, and we have sick pets, and other things, and it all really hit me yesterday. And then insomnia and nightmare last night. BUT, I had a really good week before this, and I've been making progress and gaining momentum, and yesterday was hard, BUT I didnt crash as low as I used to, and I didn't feed into it or create stories around it....I'm learning to process emotions and dial down the intensity, and I could still see that progress even on a really hard day. Focusing on teaching my brain that just because "life gets life-y" I don't need to go down old pathways, and I can deal with the task at hand without everything falling apart. Thanks Dan, this was exactly what I needed to hear today.
Thank you Dan. I was struck by the similarities of what you were saying with the suggestions that my therapist encourages me to say to the traumatized infant within me. Your daily videos are an incredible gift, so often you hit the topic that is so relevant to my day. Thank you very much!
Liking this idea Dan. Putting it into play 🙏
It sounds like something my mom says all the time tell yourself you're not going to be in pain and you won't be in pain tell yourself you're going to walk without having to have a cane for Mobility if you weren't so depressed wouldn't have these problems just think good thoughts just try and tell yourself you're not going to be sick and you won't be after having doctors do MRIs and studies on my scoliosis and fibromyalgia chronic fatigue syndrome rheumatoid arthritis these were things I had all through my life I was born with them and I hear these exact words coming from your mouth that comes from my mother's mouth and my father's makes you think
Really great Dan!
Great video. Thanks Dan. I needed this one.
Great video Dan, as always!!
Great video Dan!
Thanks so much Dan. 🙏❤🌟
This is amazing thank you
Good one. 👍🏻
This was very helpful. Thanks, Dan!
Thank you so so much💚💚 From the reminder to take a couple of full breaths and relax the body at the very beginning to all of the incredibly wise words throughout the video-these are the VERY reminders that so many of us dealing with XYZ need to hear; so that we can reach a state of “ease” (as opposed to disease). I love the idea of having a more playful approach with regards to how we communicate with our brain-it makes perfect sense to me, whereas before it could kind of feel like drilling affirmations into my brain as opposed to kind communication. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you 🎉
Great video !! And all so true!!
Great topic, very reassuring , thank you!
Super helpful. and clear! Thank you.
It seems I have CRPS.
Months of pain, then burning too.
The burning spread..
I'm now reading ' The Way Out ' by Alan Gordon. , Have another book for after too, and am devouring UA-cam videos..
This one made sense. 👍
Excellent! Thanks.
Thank you Dan! Really needed this today. I’m looking forward to joining your group this week!
I could (and should) listen to this particular video EVERY day. Thanks for the “script,” Dan. VERY helpful!❤
Thank you. I love talking to my brain! ❤
Thanks
There’s so much good stuff in this video I had to listen to it twice!
Dan just hearing your voice is relaxing
Ppl need to realize symptoms don’t go away right away takes a bit
Thank you very much - just what ll needed right now - your advice is priceless
Excellent video! Exactly what I needed this morning. THANK YOU DAN!!!
Thankyou my friend. Robert
I needed this. BIG time. Thank you
Thanks Dan. What a fantastic video. Full of great dialogue with the brain!!!!!! ♥♥
You are so great and thank you for your inspiring words.
Always anxious about where to look and how to look , because i got embarrassed in class one day and then struggled with eye contact, then turned into really bad social anxiety. My eyes are always tense and afraid to look at people. Been 7 long years with this, i still have faith i will overcome this 🙏
Thank you Dan I really need to know the way to speak to my brain and all the examples that you have given us are really helpful.! 🙏
Thank you, Dan. You are my friend and teacher. Your follower from Morocco
I like the examples you gave of the different dialogues one could have with one's brain, Will put them to practice for sure. Thank you.
Dan, I just got the book Why Pelvic Pain Hurts and it’s sooooo good! Teaches everything you say and is solidifying my knowledge! You are a gem!
This is INCREDIBLY helpful..thank you, Dan. My gut tells me it will work wonders to talk to my brain.
Thanks for this. I'm going to listen twice! I'm in total agreement with you. I forget though. I'm going through a bout. My pain is always shifting around. Haven't had symptoms for a few years but now something has cropped up, hip pain, and I almost forgot about TMS, until the Doc told me there's nothing wrong with my hip. It just dawned on me out of the blue to look at my emotions, do journalling, listen to videos on TMS.
❤I really believe you love us all❤ Thank you Dan❤ All your videos are wonderful. ❤BOOM❤
Great video.I will talk to my brain more often.thank you so much for sharing this very valuable information..
I needed this 💓✨ thanks brother
Any time!
I'm so ready to begin this process as I have been suffering with chronic back pain everyday for 16 years. Until I begin reading Dr. Sarno book I did not realize that my anxiety and TMS was responsible.
Start now. Watch my fast start playlist: DansFastStart.com - watch, take notes, implement, repeat until well. This is the solution.
Hey! This was really helpful. I agree teaming with your brain is the way to go. We don’t need to shame ourselves- that may be how we got here in the first place…I also like to use funny words to name the symptom. It worked for me in the past and this was a great reminder to apply it to the current symptoms I am experiencing. Speaking to myself out loud is something I will apply this time! Thank you 🙏
Yes, perfect information and suggestions. Gone from everyday being a high PDP day, to now just an occasional blip. Self talk, relaxation and distraction all help to calm the negative voice in my brain.
Im so glad i came across this channel. Thank you sincerely for everything you share with us.
You are so welcome
when i listen to your talks i am reminded of my teacher Thich Nhat Hanh. the tone and gentleness and way if relating with discomfort is similar. thanks for these videos.
YOU ARE A GODSEND… so needed this ( and the first of yours I saw yesterday…
“ oh no or OH WELL”
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad to help. Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for what you do and the timing of your guidance messages. God bless you🙏🏽
Thank you. Same to you!
YOUR VEST VIDEO EVER DAN. I also thank my mind when I have a good day, hour, minute, sleep.
Right on
Thank you very much
Love your suggestions
Helped me a lot ❤
You're welcome 😊
Thank you, Dan. This is exactly what I needed as I am a quietish person, i e not valuable or chatty. I need the script as I don't find it easy to just riff. God bless you.❤
Yes. Script. More structure. Good for me. 👍
U r swesome
My brains an a hole 😂😂. Like starting out the day with a laugh.
That made me laugh too. Laughter is always good medicine 😅
I had a good laugh at that bit too!! How good!!
I had this conversation last night, and it worked so well! Slept like a baby. Then woke up and BOOM! Lord, it is a bit of work during a flare. This is a great reminder to stay the path. Also, sometimes the flare-up is because I'm actually really tired and need to meet my basic needs. Thank you
Just remember, that if the conversation helped that night - it will work anytime if used consistently.
I need to watch this so badly.
I have T N and the pain is unbearable at times . I can have up to a 6 wk flare up . A few months ago ,out of desperation with the pain been so intense . I asked my healing angel to come and take this pain away . I ask 4 times every-time and the pain goes away 🙏 Wether it is mind over matter the pain goes away x I feel it is a miracle every time . I also do frequency meditations on you tube and these calm my brain and body completely and takes the pain away x Great video thank you x
What’s the meditation x
I love when you say to not see your brain as an asshole …haaaaa. But so true
Love your content and your energy ❤ I went from only being able to go from my bed to the kitchen (minimal trips) and to the toilet to walking nearly a mile in two days by watching your videos. I have issues with cfs and the brain perceiving danger theory resonates with me. I still have some work to do but I think this is the key. There is nothing to heal, I am safe, there is nothing wrong, my brain is generating these symptoms from fear. Thank you so much for your videos ❤🙏
You are on the right path. If you haven't seen it yet, watch my fast start playlist. DansFastStart.com
Thank you, I will 😊
I want to work with you. I've plateau'd in my healing. I'm an Army veteran and someone who experienced child abuse.
I already talk to myself, and they catch me doing it all the time lol 😅
These videos are a godsend ❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this Dan!
- SPEAKING KINDLY/ PLAYFULLY to my mind to foster safety
- INVITING my mind to PARTNER with me; we're in this together
- 'discussing' Dr. Sarno's 12 DAILY REMINDERS with my mind, like "Remember? We learned about how this is ONLY DISTRACTION PAIN and isn't due to any functional issue in my body. You were there with me when we learned our body is healthy and safe. We don't need this pain..."
- SPEAK OUT LOUD, when possible, to make the experience more immersive (thinking, speaking, hearing, feeling resonance in chest).
I read The Divided Mind and accepted the premise immediately, but within two weeks of applying the theory/treatment to my Central Sensitization Syndromes, I was struggling with a lot of painful "post-exertional malaise" and went looking for more direction about what exactly to say to my brain when symptoms flare. I LOVE your suggestions!
Congratulations on your freedom from TMS! Well done and thank you again!! :D
Well said.
🙏 ❤
Dan I’m a young gentlemen from Trenton Nj, I’m going through post acute withdrawal from smoking and I’ve always had chronic stress and anxiety , also have pelvic pain syndrome. Does PDP occur in withdrawal as well? Have you had talked to anyone in recovery ? I am in constant the fear past month, Or is my body just recovering?
I said to my husband this week that Im gonna be talking to my brain out load a lot more often , he said. ‘So whats new?” 😂😂
I chat away whenever Im walking or working in the garden…my brain will be sick of me 😂 ❤
In a nutshell, be calm, yet have a playful attitude when talking to your brain. Out loud is preferable, but not necessary. Let your brain know there’s nothing to fear, and that it can turn down the symptoms.
Hey Dan--good stuff, here. getting ready to dive into this work in earnest, but a question: are we (you) using BRAIN and MIND interchangeably? Thanks.
Dan, it is your words that really bring so much change to my life. Nowadays I apply TMS and PDP teachings to my acne and other skin issues I've been having. It is crazy but I had refused to believe that something so visible to the eye like acne or psoriasis could be TMS. It made it even more difficult to have everyone see your struggle openly and comment on these things. But if anything, applying your daily teachings, calming my mind and fully accepting "yes, my acne and skin issues are TMS. I am not broken, my skin is perfectly intact and capable of healing itself. This random breakout is not because I did something wrong, but because my mind realizes I am hyperventilating over these symptoms thus giving me even more fear to believe that I am broken."
I am forever grateful for all the work you do. Nothing is truly impossible in this great TMS/PDP community ❤🎉
Hi. How are your skin issues now please?😊
I need your help! I had chronic back pain for more than three years until I read John Sarno‘s ‚Healing Backpain‘. Interestingly before my back pain started, I had skin problems, it was diagnosed as Rosacea, got the treatment and it was gone in a couple of weeks and then the back pain started. Now the back pain is gone after I was aware of TMS. In the last few days my skin problems have started again, it is exactly the same as the one I had three years ago. I have a feeling that it is due to TMS. Since you have mentioned your skin issues in this community, could you please share your opinion and if it is indeed TMS, do you have any specific videos or literature that can help. Thank you so much!
@@GUGGURAJA I'd apply rosacea to the same category as well as what dermatology defines as "chronic" but with no information on why those skin conditions happen to some people. For me, the knowledge of TMS through Sarno and Dan's teachings were quite sufficient at last (trust me, I scoured the internet on this issue). What I found was that even though Sarno did not mention acne as thoroughly (he does mention psioriasis sometimes), I came across an old blog once from a former patient of Sarno who saw him for acne and Sarno suggested her to treat acne exactly no different from back pain. Especially these random flare ups of your rosacea that you can't attribute to any physical injury and that are not acute (like if you were to hit your toes somewhere), give them the space in your mind that these are only there to distract you from something or protect you from something that's 'dangerous' - basically your misinformed brain is now picking up rosacea because it remembers that was smth you had, it no longer has effect on you with back pain, so it throws rosacea back at you to see your reaction. Also, give a read perhaps into Dr. Ted Grossbart's "Skin Deep". His teachings are aligned to Sarno's thoughts and this helped solidify for me that TMS/PDP is completely applicable for skin issues like acne, rosacea, eczema etc.
I really hope this helps! It's already great you noticed the odd appearance of your rosacea - now it is time to teach the brain that your knowledge is there, you know you are not broken and you know that this is only an attempt of the mind to put and keep you in a state of fear.
Believe in our body's ability and normal cycle of healing itself from actual injuries. The rest (that which is as bizarre as rosacea or acne) goes out the window and into the TMS symptom bin.
@@dreamsatnight Thanks a ton for taking time to respond in detail. I just downloaded a copy of ‘Skin Deep’. After reading your comment, I’m convinced that my Rosacea symptoms are due to TMS, it is amazing how brain can generate these visible physical symptoms! I would have never believed it if I had not experienced it myself. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. I will surely drop a comment here in a few days/weeks to let you know if applying TMS/PDP techniques will relieve my symptoms.
I have read some of skin deep. I do suggest that you keep with the simple suggestions the Dan shares. Dan doesn’t believe you have to dig into your past. The book seemed more difficult to me to implement. It just added more pressure to my life. I have all over body itching all the time for 13+ years. No doctor has been able to be helpful at all. Luckily I had other issues that have left. That proved to me that I can use Dan’s methods for anything other issues I have, including itching. Thank God!
Great video. My brain is an asshole! That really made me chuckle 😂
❤❤
Thanks Dan. What are the 12 things that Sarno said to do? 😊
1 Understand that pain is not always the result of serious injury.
2 Recognize that many cases of back pain are associated with emotional and psychological factors.
3 Explore your emotions and stressful factors that may contribute to pain syndrome.
4 Consider relaxation, meditation, and breathing exercises to manage stress and pain.
5. Maintain an active lifestyle and engage in physical activity appropriate for your condition.
6 Learn techniques to improve your posture and maintain the correct body position.
7 Try to develop a positive attitude towards your health and life in general.
8 Do not pay excessive attention to pain and do not let it control your life.
9 Avoid unnecessary medical procedures and medications, especially if they do not provide meaningful relief.
10 Do not look for the "perfect" treatment for back pain, but focus on a comprehensive approach to your health.
11 Communicate with other people suffering from back pain and seek support in groups or communities.
12 Remember that every person is unique, and what works for one may not work for another.

Hey Dan, I want to express my gratitude for all the valuable work you do. Your contributions mean a lot to me.
I have a question regarding your role as a TMS coach. Do you think consistently discussing "chronic pain" in your work might inadvertently signal to your subconscious that it's still an important issue for you, potentially leading to its manifestation in your own life? I've come to strongly believe in the principle that what we focus on, we attract. While I'm contemplating becoming a coach myself to help others, I'm concerned about whether constantly talking about chronic pain might inadvertently trigger it in my own life, despite my complete understanding and belief in TMS. I'd really appreciate hearing your perspective on this.
While that may happen if you are still fearful of TMS, it doesn't happen to me. I am SO confident in TMS as a real thing and what to do about it that it doesn't phase me at all. I'm not afraid of TMS and so it doesn't happen. If I get a twinge, I know what it is, give it no attention or fear and it goes away. I'm not concerned at all. I've ben chronic pain free for 14 years and coaching for the past 7 years.
@@PainFreeYou I appreciate your response! So it's all about fear. Works for any situation, not only pain! Thank you so much. What an inspiration.
In Sarnos book he talks about deep unconscious rage which causes those symptoms. So how do you talk acknowledging the unconscious rage....in his book he gives example after example of this
I'm a really scientific guy. There is a lot of high-quality evidence coming out for what you say. The more physical causes I rule out, the more confident I become. With the amount of physical causes I've ruled out, I am 90%+ confident now.
You can also rule IN TMS / Perceived danger as the cause.
Do the FIT assessment below. If you answer yes to even one of the criteria, that is an indicator that your brain creates the pain based on perceived danger. Your body is not the problem.
FUNCTIONAL:
-Symptoms begin without physical precipitation
-Symptoms persist after an injury has healed (3-6 mo)
-Symptoms are in a distribution pattern that is symmetric
-Symptoms occur on one whole side of the body or occur on half of the face, head, or torso
-Symptoms spread over time to different areas of the body
-Symptoms radiate to the opposite side of the body or down a whole leg or arm
-Symptoms that occur in many different body parts at the same time
-Symptoms that have a quality of tingling, electric, burning, numb, hot or cold
INCONSISTENT:
-Symptoms shift from one location in the body to another
-Symptoms are more or less depending on the time of day. Or they occur first thing in the morning or in the middle of the night.
-Symptoms occur after, but not during, an activity or exercise
-Symptoms occur when one thinks about them or when someone asks about them.
-Symptoms occur when stresses increase or one thinks about stressful situations
-Symptoms are minimal or nonexistent when engaged and joyful or distracting activities, such as when on vacation
-Symptoms are minimal or nonexistent after some kind of therapy, such as massage, chiropractic, Reiki, acupuncture, an herbal or vitamin supplement
TRIGGERED:
-symptoms are triggered by things that are not related to the actual symptoms, such as foods, smells, sounds, light, computer screens, menses, changes in the weather
-symptoms are triggered by the anticipation of stress, such as prior to school, work, a doctor's visit, a medical test, a visit to a relative, or a social gathering; or during those activities

There is a way to recover. I map it all out here: DansFastStart.com - watch all the videos. Take notes. Implement. Repeat until well. You can do this.
I suffer in similar ways you describe; physically (back and shoulder) mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I wish you success find the peace you seek. I am & so many of us are seeking the same peace and safety. 🙏❤
