When your body loses its ability to stay active and your mind is plagued with constant pain, your
motivation, mood, energy levels, and temperament changes.
Therapy and Depression:
Support groups for chronic pain are helpful and eye-opening.
Meeting with a group of people who understand the day-to-day struggle of living with pain can change your perspective and make you feel less alone.
Seeing an individual counselor is often more comfortable for people in the beginning of their
recovery from chronic pain. You can share your personal experiences without judgement and
receive unique advice for your situation.
Holistic Approach:
Holistic refers to the management of the whole person. This approach considers mental and
social factors rather than solely the physical symptoms of a condition.
This management plan is an example of a comprehensive approach to pain relief.
Taking care of sleep, diet, exercise, and more will also help take care of your mental health.
