Summary

Laura first came upon this work when she was in the depths of pelvic pain and desperate for a solution. As she moved through her process and embraced the mindset, JournalSpeak, and self-compassion necessary to reset her nervous system and heal, she had a pretty profound realization: The burning mouth and OCD that had both been completely traumatic and devastating in her past were also TMS! She was just trapped in the loop of the Symptom Imperative. Once Laura saw this pattern in hindsight, she was able to quickly circumvent this phenomenon after her pelvic pain left and anxiety/OCD offered her a hand. "No thanks!" Laura said, and her life has never been the same. Join us for a brave and enlightening conversation about the complex depths of OCD, the terror of burning mouth, and the struggle of pelvic pain only to reveal the same solution living beneath them all. Much love to you! xo n.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Cure for Chronic Pain Podcast with me, Nicole Sachs.
0:07.0	You are here.
0:12.0	Hello everyone. here.
0:15.0	Hello everyone, how's everyone today? This is Nicole, and you have reached my podcast, The Cure for Chronic Pain with me,
0:20.0	Nicole Sachs.
0:21.0	Welcome to it, so glad to be with you today. Today I have a really interesting and fantastic
0:28.8	interview with Laura. Laura was in Australia, as you guys always hear me say, so delightful for me to talk to somebody
0:36.9	who's living in tomorrow.
0:39.2	And we just had a great conversation about her journey through what started out at least when she
0:45.6	knew about my work as pelvic pain and then being able to look in the rearview
0:49.6	mirror at episodes of Extreme Burning Mouth and OCD and understanding that all of these things were different symptom imperatives of TMS and it's just a great story and it's a great reminder to everyone out there that is
1:06.3	struggling with things like OCD and burning mouth two things that are very very common
1:12.4	topics that people reach out to me about.
1:15.0	If some of these symptoms are stuff that you struggle with,
1:19.0	it's great. It's just great to hear her story because even though she didn't know about TMS work until after she
1:24.4	used it to cure her IC and pelvic pain and then was able to realize and
1:29.2	understand the way the symptom imperative worked, it's still a great message for anyone with any of these symptoms.
1:35.9	And of course, as you guys know, the way your symptom is showing up is immaterial. So in Laura's life, even though she
1:44.7	didn't fully understand it at the time, the burning mouth was everything. Oh my
1:49.7	God, it was stealing all her focus. It subsided through a placebo you'll understand exactly what happened then her
1:56.7	O. C. D. came up so strong that it really owned her she was able to get through that
2:02.2	and then the pelvic pain started and this is such a common story with TMS. It is the symptom imperative.
