Common eigenvector of commuting unbounded Operatorsoperators

Let be T$T$,S $S$ be two self adjoint-adjoint linear Operatoroperators on a Hilbert Spacespace $\mathcal{H}$ with pure point spectrum.
Then T,S$T$ and $S$ commute if and only if they have a complete set of common eigenvectors.

This is the full statement iI want to prove. In the case of bounded Operatorsoperators this would be fine. My Problemproblem now is, the Unbounded Caseunbounded case.I I may tell you my thoughts for the first implication:

Let be $\phi\in D(T)$ an eigenvector from T$T$ with eigenvalue $\lambda$, then we know, since T$T$ and S$S$ commute: $$ TS\phi=ST\phi=S\lambda \phi=\lambda S\phi $$ Now, here is my problem: Can iI assume (and why) that $\phi\in D(S)$ with just knowngiven that $T,S$ commute and $\phi$ is an eigenvector fronof $T$? Maybe this is quite simple but i dontI don't get it at the Momentmoment...
