Yes, My T is certified. I have all the tools I need... just need some down time on the pain to get a handle on it...and that doesn't happen. I could get by quite well without any pain, I think, as it's from misfiring nerves, and misunderstood messages in the brain
LOL if you only knew what I can do with my mind!
T and I have surely discussed this working on trying to improve my abilities for the pain

but once it reaches a level 8+ I can't limit it

At those times I haven't been able to on my own, but T can focus me enough to keep me from jumping off anything
