Chronic Pain Thoughts Volume 7

 Dear Reader,


I have been noticing articles on medical gaslighting lately and it's peaked my interest.


I'm pretty sure most chronic pain patients have dealt with this. I know I have. It's a very sad reality for most of us. We are made to feel like our pain isn't real, like we are drug seekers when in reality we are in tons of pain and are just seeking relief.


It's terrible that someone with this amount of schooling and training can do this to patients. It's so frustrating and unnecessary!


I also swear if one more doctor tells me to get a good night sleep I am going to scream!!
