Do you have pain or other symptoms that might not be entirely caused by physical problems in your body? Do you often feel worse when you are stressed or anxious? Are you willing to consider solutions that involve thinking “outside the box?” If so, we've been there, and we can help.
The PPD/TMS Peer Network
We are a group of peers suffering from Neuroplastic Pain who are eager to help others recover from neuroplastic pain.
Getting Started
Browse through our pages specifically geared towards those new to the TMS approach. Read more...
We have a number of resources specifically for medical and mental health practitioners. Read more...
Today's Featured Success Story
Meet Forest
Overcame Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) using PRT
I was a bit of computer hacker, typing away on my Mac plus, when my forearms began to hurt. Five years in, I couldn't type more than a couple sentences without some sort of flare up. Worse, the "RSI," as I now called it, began spreading into my neck and back. I had come across Sarno's ideas years ago. However, they felt to far-fetched to me at the time. What finally convinced me was stumbling across and reading a bunch of TMS success stories written by people whose experiences were extremely similar to my own. Eventually, the whole process snowballed, and now I feel like I have my life back. Read the full recovery story
Resources
Programs
Via our free Ask a TMS Therapist program, licensed TMS therapists from the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles regularly answer questions about TMS healing on our discussion forum forum. Read through previously answered questions or use the Ask a TMS Therapist form to submit one of your own.
The TMS Wiki proudly hosts a free Pain Recovery Program, developed by TMS practitioner Alan Gordon, LCSW. Using clips of recordings of sessions with TMSers, this multimedia recovery program both tells you and shows you what to do to overcome your TMS. Go to the recovery program
Structured Educational Program
A common stumbling block for many people is figuring out how to put the TMS knowledge to work. The Structured Educational Program gives people daily activities to do that will help them recover. It was developed entirely by people who have recovered from TMS and is based on the techniques other peers used to heal. Read More...
Every Saturday at 3 PM ET, we host an online peer-moderated chatroom where people can discuss TMS topics and provide and receive support from each other. Go to the chatroom
Every month on Tuesday evenings we host a call-in discussion group focusing on a section of a TMS book or hosting a TMS author or practitioner. Callers discuss that session's material and other TMS-related issues, deepening their understanding of TMS through conversation with others. Free recordings of past sessions are also available. Read More...
In honor of Dr. Sarno's retirement, the PTPN developed the Thank You, Dr. Sarno project in which we collect personal thank you notes from individuals who have recovered from chronic pain using the TMS approach. The majority of these personal messages can be viewed online at www.thankyoudrsarno.org and is a great resource to help others gain confidence in this approach. Visit the Thank You, Dr. Sarno website, or learn how to contribute to the project.
Dr. Sarno hosted lectures for his new clients as a way to help educate them about TMS. With a similar mindset, we host special webinars with TMS practitioners and authors to help people with TMS learn more about the condition and identify the emotional sources behind their symptoms, hear how others successfully overcame their symptoms, and learn skills to help become pain-free.

About Us
We’ve been there. We can help.
The PPD/TMS Peer Network (PTPN) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2009. We seek to relieve suffering from Tension Myositis Syndrome (TMS) by raising awareness, providing information based on scientific evidence, facilitating expression of a wide variety of perspectives, and giving individual support to people with TMS. Like many others, we suffered from terrible pain and other symptoms for many years before learning about this approach. All of the members of our organization suffered from TMS at some point in their lives, and the majority of these members consider themselves to have recovered from chronic pain and experience little to no pain.
This Wiki was the PTPN's first project. The TMS Wiki currently hosts 5 different articles on TMS.
