And I am realizing I have been stable with one small lapse since mid October. I am still VERY careful about what I eat. That lapse was caused by hidden yellow peppers ! ! ! -------------------- Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Hi Heather       #239623 - 01/18/06 06:45 PM Edit Reply Quote Augie Reged: 10/27/04 Posts: 5807 Loc: Illinois Thanks for the recommendation. I am still waiting for a programable CD player (didn't realize I would need a programmable one), and hopefully, hopefully, hopefully the tapes will help some. I'll take any amount of relief they might provide. -------------------- ~ Beth Constipation, pain prodominent,cramps, spasms and bloat!

Some habits are hard to break and "obsessing" is a bad habit. I should know, I have had that habit all my life. I just got sick and tired of being sick and tired and made the choice not to obsess. That combined with eating wisely is how I got stable. I don't eat my trigger foods, eat a piece of cheese now and then, use Stevia in my coffee and determine not to let IBS own me. Fake it if you have to....until you convince yourself. If you don't try it...you'll never know if it works or not. -------------------- Have a blessed day!...Rachel stable and sooooooo thankful!

And then lost it. And so I got a new one for christmas. Then I found my old one! So I had two. If I still have the old one, do you want it? I can check tonight. -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Augie: CD and CBT       #239729 - 01/19/06 07:06 AM Edit Reply Quote Sand Reged: 12/13/04 Posts: 4490 Loc: West Orange, NJ (IBS-D) I've been thinking about doing the hypno CDs - why do you need a programmable player? I've never tried it per se, but I've heard a lot about Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). Maybe that would help. -------------------- [Research tells us fourteen out of any ten individuals likes chocolate. - Sandra Boynton] Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Hi Sand!       #239791 - 01/19/06 10:17 AM Edit Reply Quote Augie Reged: 10/27/04 Posts: 5807 Loc: Illinois You need a programmable CD player because on most of the CDs there are more than one "track" on the disc. The directions on how to use the CD player make an important point of telling you that it's important to only listen to the first track according to a listening schedule that comes with the CDs. You need to be able to have the disc stop playing after the first track without going into the second track until it's the day to do that track. I'm afraid I'll fall asleep or not be able to relax fully if I have to worry about stopping the disc before it runs into to the next session. I see a psychologist now, but I don't think she does CBT...in fact I no she doesn't. I'll look into the link more and try and find someone in my area who is also in my insurance....but that will be difficult because my insurance is really poor! -------------------- ~ Beth Constipation, pain prodominent,cramps, spasms and bloat!
