Understanding and Managing Chronic Pain & its Relationship with Mental Health

I believe you left out that most of the people who died from prescription opioids, the prescriptions weren't theirs. Please correct me if im wrong

How many people just died from a lab-made bioweapon in the last two years?? And how many from the Jab🤫🤐. How many people have die in car crashes every year?? Why dont we ban the automobile

Its all in your mind Its all in your mind

This is disgusting and honestly extremely bad science.

Bloody introduction is 2 mins plus

Okay, I can tell this is gonna just infuriate me from the comments alone. I hear you all. They don’t get us. I can’t bear to watch another video that blames me or people who misuse OUR needed pain meds for opioid abuse.

I get depressed due to pain, i want to live but cant. You doctors have no idea still!!!!!

I went from being the happiest I ever been w/ a great career and always loved life as a independent woman.I've been severely depressed with chronic pain & anxiety for 14 years due to many surgeries and radiation for a very rare & aggressive stage 4 Head and neck cancer @ only 22, which escalated PTSD especially w/ hospitals & new doctors after experiencing terrible bedside manner including unknowingly fracturing my jaw to the point of a staff infection n the ICU. Led to a picc line and surgery, while my last "reconstruction surgery" I woke up in the OR, couldn't move or talk but heard the nurses bashing me. Told doctors as soon as I woke up n nothing was done. I've been on high amounts of opiates that only sometimes take the edge off from a very high tolerance to all meds or some don't work how they're supposed to but by no way am addicted to or abuse. I also use MM and essential oils to try to help. My life has changed drastically and been bedridden with some daily activities. Numerous doctors say I'll have my pain everywhere for the rest of my life and only in my 30s, rarely have good days in a year. But I understand completely how I do what I need to and then feeling worse a few days after. N I tried acupuncture n massage with no success as well and at the point Idk what else to do and accept I'm never gonna live my life again. Also NEVER even seen street drugs and have always been against it. Just get POed bcuz I have no teeth or dentures from the cancer, n a lot of people assume I'm an addict or once was. No reason to try em when my meds are stronger, cheaper n legal. Can't speak well, so if u know any therapists I can type to that are free since betterhelp is great but can't afford it & copay is too high for providers' options. 🙏🥺

Cart before the horse. No understanding of pain, chronic or otherwise. Treat the pain, not the depression. SMH Psychiatry thinks they have the answer to everything, but psychiatry at its roots has always been fraud. So it is here. Treating with CBT does nothing for pain. Again, treat the pain and other issues – sleeplessness, depression, etc., will resolve. She's got the cart before the horse. Treat the pain

Well, I think chronic pain doesn’t have a solution. I have chronic pain for the last three years and I get confused whether is a result of an injury which I had very severe and I have also had severe trauma within those years. So it’s probably a combination of both. I do not believe that , specially oxycodone are an effective medication for my pain. However, I think for me what works are. Diazepam which is like a form of Valium. I take a small dose every day around four or 5 o’clock. That is when the pain gets worse as the day had passed and a lot of action has accumulated. Those are the times when I’m in more pain so I have found it helps. However, there is no medication that will eliminate, or eradicate the problem rather than learning to live with it. Accepting the pain is not easy. It’s like fighting every day against it or losing the faith completely that you’re ever gonna get better. I think acceptance is the solution as waiting for it to get better, it’s not gonna help.
