Pseudo Trauma for Pain Management –by Datadave.txt -------------------------------------------------- Pseudo Trauma is a way to manage most every kind of pain in the human body. Pain is information and our endorphins suppress those neural transmissions. The pituitary gland in the brain releases them all throughout the day and we don't notice it. This method enhances the perception of the release of endorphins. To begin, I like to trim back on my pain suppression by issuing the mental command: "Endure". I issue the command in my thoughts and command my brain to not suppress the pain information. Right away I start to notice the pain I have been suppressing: A knee injury, then my foot, then what's that? "Endure, endure", see what it is that you are suppressing, 'cause you are, even if you don't know it. "Endure, endure" for about 2 or 3 minutes, more in the beginning or if the desire to really "Feel the rush", ‘cause you will feel it wash over you like a wave and it is better than any and every drug. "Endure, endure" until every sensation in the body is heightened to the point that a simple flick on the arm feels electric and cascades up and down the arm like sparks of static electricity. You are ready! In your mind, you step off a curb and look to your left just in time to see a Metro Bus smack you directly IN THE FACE! Wham!, You fly back in your mind and land on the sidewalk, screaming in your mind and whispering along, "I'M IN PAIN, I'M IN PAIN" over and over again and whereas it helps to actually have some pain to feel it does not matter. Continue the "I'M IN PAIN, I'M IN PAIN", "I'M IN PAIN, I'M IN PAIN", "I'M IN PAIN, I'M IN PAIN" until you get to a point where the brain says "Oh Sh!t, I'd better shut him up", and it gives you what it has been saving up and some it’s been saving for a rainy day. I like to say, "Until you no longer have to keep doing it.", you'll know, it washes over you like that 1st time, every time. And the more you do it, the easier it gets. Every time I tell it to someone, I also get the push even though they might not and it is a real change in the room for me. Then it is suggested that you direct the shot to the places in pain, "My leg" or "My foot", where ever you are in pain. You can do this over and over again and the more you do it, your body catches on and suppresses pain for you without you even knowing it. I have found that doing drugs, especially for pain, really ruin your body’s own pain management ability and this is far better and way faster and is not addictive. There is no drug withdrawal and no side effects other than the suppression of pain. I have been doing it for better than 20 years and taught it to over 100 people. Disclaimer: I don't suggest that stop going to the doctor or stop any medications that you are on. I only recommend that you can reduce your dependency to external pain suppression and start doing the good stuff.
