Jill and I were wondering just yesterday how much of the RLS symptoms are in our minds; how much it might control the symptoms if we just only knew the power potential of our minds. >> >> I think that is a real slippery slope! Yes, the mind is a powerful tool and the body has tremendous self-healing powers but to imply that RLS is " only " a head-trip does a great disservice to all of us who suffer terribly from RLS. The insurance companies would love that one......you don't need all of these expensive meds (afterall, they are only " life-style " meds), sleep studies & doc visits.....you just need to get your head on straight, be mentally strong, meditate, get religion, pray alot, say " Hail " a zillion times, and just simply get your act together.....you mental weakling! Insurance claim denied! Get a life and quit whining about your stupid legs feeling funny! You slacker! You loser! Hey stupid sleepy head.......go buy a herb, drink some tea, eat right, get off your fat-ass and get some exercise, and by all means, but that book about " positive thinking " (you can read can't you or does your lack of sleep cause a reading/learning disorder too? Guess you need a doctor's visit for that one too, eh?) and you will be healed and can get on with your sorry life. IMHO RAINBOWPED@...
