Thank you for such a valuable conversation 💗 What I personally found great was to realise that I do feel guilty a lot for the way I feel and being in pain, for all those times when I cancelled on things or didn't enjoy them because of pain. I never looked at it that way so thank you for bringing this up to light for me. ❤
This is a great interview. When dealing with pain you can feel alone but this has made me feel there is answers out there and a whole community going through the same issues
Thanks so much for this. I have an autoimmune disease, dysautonomia, chronic pancreatitis, and a spinal cord injury...but I also have a lot of TMS symptoms and health anxiety. I learned through this past year in recovery from an eating disorder (brought on by gastroparesis, which sounds like what she had), which made me fearful of foods that the doctors said weren’t safe) how much pain in the mind and body interact, and FINALLY how to listen to my body. I have to remind myself daily that my body is doing it’s very best to work properly. I still struggle daily to figure out what my body wants, and how much is too much pushing it, especially with so many others depending on me. Been struggling lately - thanks for this reminder.

“My body is fighting FOR me, not against me.” So beautifully expressed! Thank you.

THANK YOU THANK YOU !
Focus more on listening to the body rather than the brain and it's interpretation. I like that, makes great sense
