Wow, this has been so helpful for helping me learn how to handle my fatigue after having covid 3 months ago. Since the pandemic started I was terrified of getting long covid, and when I did after a very mild infection, I've been baffled about why, and what to do about it. (My MD had nothing to offer.) This discussion has given me a lot to work with to find my way out of this fatigue, which I now believe is simply brain-generated.
@laura This is wonderful to hear! Thanks for sharing your reaction; so glad you found it helpful. We're sorry that you've been dealing with Long Covid, but glad you're seeing a path toward recovery. Many more resources for overcoming Long Covid are on our site here (you can also see our feature length film): www.thismighthurtfilm.com/long-covid
Please do a video on unlearning anxiety/depression and another one unlearning insomnia. I have applied all this teaching and it set me free of chronic pain, God set me free of the depression and anxiety, sleep disturbances is last to go, but better.
Noted! We will try to create some resources on these things. It will take some time. In the meantime, if you discover any please send them our way. tmhfilm@gmail.com The basic idea is that you can regard insomnia and anxiety as equivalents to chronic pain (manifestations of anxiety and resistance to feeling emotions), so you can treat them much the same way you would treat pain-emotional processing, cognitive reframing, behavior shifts to reduce fear of the symptoms, etc. Good luck!
Excellent interview!!! Although I was so disappointed when they were interrupted that Marion didn't go back to Michelle and let her finish her response about specific tools to calm the nervous system. She had plenty of time at the end. I really wanted to hear what she had to say.
@StarGalaxy We understand your disappointment! There are TONS of free resources on our website, a way to access the full-lenth film, and answers to "how to calm the nervous system" at www.thismighthurtfilm.com/unlearningpain Also you can find Michelle Wiegers and her resources for calming the nervous system here: michellewiegers.com/
During my CFS diagnosis they found out my back was torn up from the butt up. My rheumatologist was shocked that I have very little back pain. Said my back looked like I'd been in a bad car accident. They also diagnosed carpal tunnel syndrome during an EMG. That was a total scock since I have no pain in that area at all. Of course no one could find the source of my cfs/fibro pain. Go figure.
@@ThisMightHurt Just getting started with brain retraing, about two weeks in at this point. Using mostly the Curable app and learning everything I can. I'm starting have a few better days but after 20 years I know these good days show up sometimes.
@@theantiqueactionfigure Awesome, wishing you the best. Let us know how it goes-you can always reach us at tmhfilm@gmail.com You find this other seminar we did about chronic pain helpful: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5gxfY7-zdVk.html
I have post covid pots symptoms post 7 weeks and have started dnrs and curable app. I really wanted to listen to what Michelle was going to say that helped her heal. What is her website?
That's a fair point! Sorry if you felt this seminar lacked details. We did another seminar with more on the nitty gritty of how the brain retraining treatment works here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-N7UEWx5QQTM.html And we've written a roadmap for unlearning chronic pain and fatigue syndromes like Long Covid here on our site, which has links for how to put the diagnosis and treatment into action: www.thismighthurtfilm.com/unlearningpain And of course, we made an immersive feature film that explores the treatment in depth. Thanks and wishing you well!
Hi, depersonalization and derealization, if the symptom is caused by trauma, can in theory be addressed by using this trauma-informed treatment of reducing fear, reducing resistance to the symptoms, using mindfulness to cultivate awareness of body sensations and mental states, and working to process traumatic memories in a safe way. We have not had many people report using this specific treatment for DP/DR, so it is hard to comment beyond that. Wishing you luck.
@@ThisMightHurt thank you for the in depth explanation! I post COVID and experiencing I guess what that is and just looking for a way for it to dissipate. Mine occurred after my body was having anxiety and first panic attack while I was recovered. I then began with a racing heart and insomnia and after the lack of sleep I began into a fog and then lo and behold the disconnect. Wasn’t sure if my brain was throwing me into protective mode. Praying all is resolved soon. Thank you again❤️
@@applej3496 That’s a horrible feeling. I’m so sorry. 😢 By chance did you have a floroquinolone antibiotic, such as Cipro or Levaquin? Both can cause DP/DR.
I'm sorry you feel frustrated. We wrote a comprehensive roadmap for unlearning chronic symptoms using brain retraining here: thismighthurtfilm.com/unlearningpain
