Thank you very much for that. I too know people who have been helped by John Sarno.
As for the diet, I have more energy now that I do the raw sauerkraut, the coconut water kefir, which does help with cravings. In fact I don't really have cravings.
In terms of the emotional side to this, I too have major pain and sadness issues that come out when I see terrible things, like a picture of an Iraqi father holding his bleeding child. I can't handle any visuals like that, of suffering. So I avoid. There a re a lot of movies I don't go see.
For awhile I though my symptoms were psychologically-based. Now I think they're fungal. Time will tell.
