Usually a person will only experience one or two symptoms, but the symptoms are diverse and range from muscle pains from hypertense muscles to headaches from hypertension to depression to anger to irritability to diarrhea and or constipation to nausea to itching, welts and or rashes and others. These have nothing to do with fibromyalgia. What is happening is that the fearful part of you is communicating to your conscious self in the ways it knows how that it is afraid and upset that it cannot escape from facing and dealing with the fear. These symptoms are the result of that fear being dealt with and overcome. In some cases your subconscious may even be trying to make using OF so unpleasant that conscious you will stop using it, which is a form of resistance.
There is also usually a cycle of symptoms. At first you feel great. Then as the really scary stuff starts being dealt with, you start having whatever symptoms, and then as you work through and get past the fear, the symptoms go away. This may repeat as you deal with different fears and layers of fears. Not everyone will experience this. Some people don't have any symptoms, or may only experience whatever symptoms once.
I have different symptoms from using OF than I do from using UMSv2, but in both cases they are the result of the fear removal process. It's just working with different fears held by different parts of my awareness that are associated with different parts of my brain, which control different parts of my body.
Now that´s interesting, this will be painful and annoying, looking foward to it.
