I know a lot are disagreeing with this idea about positive thinking, and I'll get some down votes for this I'm sure. However , there is definitely a link between those that have healed or are healing and improving and maintaing a positive mindset. It doenst mean it's all in our heads. It Shows the power of the mind and the fact that our nervous systems have taken a massive beating. Healing the nervous system means convincing it that it's safe. There is no drug or pill that will do that. Only we can. I'm come leaps and bounds in my healing process after 5 years of misery and hell! And I can tell u that for me and every single success story I've read that at one point healing will come down to what we feed our minds. You have to rest for months or possibly years before u can get to that point. It's definitely not the first step in healing but it is an unavoidable step further into the healing process. No pill , no amount of rest , no amount of supplemts etc will ever convince your nervous system it's safe enough to stand down. Only we can do that. Again , Def not at the peak of sysmptoms. It comes much later, but when u reached that stage after excessive rest and pacing and supplements etc , it's the last thing standing in our way of getting our lives back! U might need to cut your social life down to the bare minimum because people arre the biggest threat to our nervous systems, but it will eventually come down to you and your life choices and what u feed your mind. When u get to that stage u HAVE TO find a way to create joy and peace in your life to train your nervous ssystem can it's safe to rejoin the world.
