Chronic Pain Support - You Don't Have to Suffer In Silence
Pain.
When you read the word pain, did a painful experience come to mind? Did a chronic condition stand out to you? Did you start to feel some fatigue after? Chronic pain is tiring and 1 in 5 adults in the US live with chronic pain.*
Pain is one of those tricky and frustrating conditions since in many ways it is invisible. Only the person experiencing the pain can truly understand the severity of their pain. Part of one’s journey with chronic pain is learning how best to communicate it as you advocate for yourself within the medical system.
Pain is common but it’s often done in silence. Peer Support is a helpful supplemental service that offers pain sufferers the opportunity to be heard and understood. It gives them the space to learn how to communicate their pain, name their symptoms, and share how it affects their daily vitality.
As the holiday season is starting, Peer Support Solutions encourages all chronic pain sufferers to seek out peer support. There are support group meetings, chatrooms, and 1:1 coaching sessions on HeyPeers that offer chronic pain support.
In these spaces, all pain is welcomed. Attendees can choose to share their experiences or listen. In every instance, they will be offered mutual support from others.
