What's perpetuating my syndrome is the effects of the drugs I'm trying to taper. But I trying to see if there is a way to reprogram the mind even though having horrific mental symptoms like DR
Gustav- May I ask what kind of psychiatric drug did you taper off using TMS practices? I’ve been tapering off 2 Benzos for 7 years. I have 1.4 mg V left and I just can’t go lower due to terrifying and debilitating withdrawal symptoms. Can this be TMS? I have gotten rid of extreme back pain using TMS years ago. And I’ve been wondering if PaWS was TMS. But what about still tapering? Could that be TMS. Or is it PTSD/Trauma?? Thank you.
Hi, I tapered from three drugs: pregabalin, lithium, and mirtazapine. By the time I got into Sarno I was only tapering lithium and mirtazapine. I made a post/video about tapering. Have you seen this: unlearnwithdrawal.substack.com/p/a-mindbody-approach-to-tapering-psychiatric In my experience I thought the withdrawal sensations were coming from tapering but they were not. It was TMS. For people for whom TMS resonates I think it can explain people's experiences with trauma in a non-pathologizing way (unlike "PTSD").
Hi, I don't have any personal experience in that area and I'm hesitant enough talking about things I have experience with. I know at least one podcast maybe related to this topic but I haven't listened to it in a long time and I'm not sure it's relevant to you: ua-cam.com/video/LVvq8edW9mo/v-deo.html The interview is with Steve Ozanich who is not a doctor but a significant figure in the TMS area. You could email Ozanich, he would have a better answer for you than I would. You could also contact TMS physicians like Howard Schubiner or David Schechter. Or you could contact Alan Gordon's pain psychology centre. All of these practitioners must see people taking narcotics for pain and I do have some memory of them talking about tapering people off these drugs and using this same type of approach. Sorry, don't want to just throw names at you but these might be interesting resources for you to check out.
@ you are most generous. You have given me hope. Thank you for the borrowed hope. I will follow up, with your advice. I will watch the video. I have sent for some books you have mentioned. I really appreciate your input. Thank you, wishing you continued success. Recovery is a gift.
Maybe you could compile some success stories for your channel. I think that would help people.
Yes I agree that's a great idea. I think that will eventually happen but it takes people willing to share their stories publicly.

I hear you. I’m in the same boat.
I’m sorry you suffer.
Gustav, thank you for your videos. Would it be possible to email you? Thank you.
Hi, sure. My email is gustavtms@gmail.com.

You're welcome, I wish you the best!
As far as abuse ive found no help with that. Ongoing abuse is what lead us to being medicated. Getting away to be safe is a possible way
