In this video, I speak about the idea of 'taking a step backwards'. It can be really frustrating and disappointing when we feel like our progress is impacted because of symptoms getting worse. It is normal to think of this as taking a step backwards - however, it can be really helpful to reframe this as an expected part of the process rather than something that shouldn't have happened or something that means progress has slowed.

I'm not a medical professional; this is not medical advice or mental health advice. Seek help from your primary care doctor or local services if you are concerned about your health or mental health.
On this channel, I speak about topics related to Long Covid, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and similar conditions. I found the work of Dr. John Sarno and Dr. Howard Schubiner really helpful, in particular the books The Mindbody Prescription and Unlearn Your Pain. I also found Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches useful for helping me learn how to become more aware of emotions. Dr. John Sarno, coined the term Tension Myositis/Myoneural Syndrome (TMS) - a condition in which unexplained medical symptoms are underpinned by repressed emotions or psychological processes. His work and the work of his colleagues have helped many people including those with chronic fatigue and chronic pain.
