With all due respect to Eskapa (and I really mean this), the two biggest pieces of misinformation I have encountered in regard to TSM are the time frame for cure, and the idea that it is completely painless. Our experiences here are subjective, but nonetheless they clearly demonstrate that we have quite a bit to learn about this treatment. What we need is not misinformation, but more information, and in that respect this board should be considered to be an invaluable resource. It is as far as I know, the most extensive collection of real life TSM experience in existence, and that ought not be ignored.

This Newsweek article is how I found out about TSM. Wouldn't be here now if I hadn't happened upon it. So the more it gets in the mainstream press, the better.

Well, there's some good news!

One by one people are finding this effective method. Maybe dozens. Maybe one day hundreds, then thousands. I hope it will happen sooner than later.

ok, I went back and commented again after some guy said it was only a matter of time before Susan goes on a bender, because alcohol is "cunning baffling powerful" This time I took the gloves off and got f***ing medieval on their ass. i think these filthy swine deserve it for murdering millions of drunks to protect their own lame religion. but if y'alll think it's too harsh (I called them f***ing simpleton AA sheep) then I'll remove the comment. I won't get my feelings hurt if you tell me I should remove it. is it good or bad for the cause? I'm starting to think it may help.

I say leave it.

I've never been to AA or even really considered going. I just knew it wasn't for me. I've been surprised, though, by some of the stories I've read here about people's experience with AA and how closed-minded they are to other alternatives when they seem to fail so miserably to help people.

I too say LEAVE IT!!! I've walked into about 4 "meetings" & had to walk right back out. My intuition would not let me stay. I picked up on some pretty severe negativaty & didn't like it one bit. I heard one pathetic story from some man, he started to cry. Then everyone started to cry. I was also crying, because I was soo -------angry & the responses. Okay, can't say anymore. Getting too worked up.

Joe,

I didn't see your reply there. Did you remove it or did Newsweek deem it "abusive"?

I added my own reply and tried to keep it as civil as I could stand, so it stands less chance of being removed by overzealous Newsweek moderators.

Bob

My comment is still there bob. yours was right underneath it. followed by another one. Both of your comments were diplomatic and poignant. Thanks for balancing out my vitriolic response.

Joe,

What name are you using on Newsweek because I see two replies under john's drivel, mine and "Donald Quinn". Donald says his last drink was 4 years ago, so that can't be you.

I'm confused.

Bob

WOW

very glad that Newsweek did the article. That's the biggest piece that mainstream press has done on TSM, I believe, and truly helps legitimize it in the eyes of the general public.
