From people who came through it
“I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember pain clinic waiting list of nine months like it was yesterday. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Bit by bit it comes back. Sending love.”
owlroad70 · been through chronic pain“When doctors say the scans are normal and you still hurt, it's easy to doubt yourself. Don't. Pain is real even when it doesn't show up on a screen. Find one person who believes you, and hold onto the good weeks. I still have bad ones, but I've learned to plan around them. You will too. And if you can, get a buddy. Someone who gets it without you having to explain.”
Bright Bus · been through chronic pain“This time last year I was exactly where you are. Back then it was fibromyalgia flare after a busy weekend. These days I mostly feel like me. You get yourself back in pieces.”
Lakshmi D · been through chronic pain“Hello friend. It feels like nobody believes what you're going through. You'll probably say you're fine some days because it's less trouble than explaining. That's alright. Try to find one person who'll listen, even if that takes a while. The stairs don't go anywhere, but you don't have to climb them by yourself. I'm still working this out too, but I'm around.”
