Coping With the Emotions of Chronic Pain

[clararobert]

One of the most importantArctic Blastlessons that I learnt from a psychologist friend of mine was that no matter how bad things are there are always positive things around us that we can take inspiration from. Naturally it is very hard to find anything positive when you are depressed and in pain twenty four seven, but my friend urged me to put all of my available energy into thinking only of the positives around me and I can tell you although it takes a long time to master, doing this on a regular basis made accepting my situation a lot easier.

The effect that pain medication can have on your mood also plays a big part in how you look at the world and your situation. Of course you can't just stop taking the pain medication and be happy again, if only it was that easy! What you can do however is try and recognize when the medication is distorting your view of your situation. Not distorting your view in a physical sense and some do that don't they, but in an emotional sense.

The use of anti-depressants is widely accepted among doctors treating patients with chronic pain and in a number of cases the anti-depressant medication can help in toning down the mood lowering effects that you feel from the pain medication. If you can successfully combat these mood effects with a combination of anti-depressants and being aware of when you think the medication is affecting your mood to a substantial degree you will find that getting through each day is a lot easier.

And finally when there is a lifestyle change you really need to dig deep and put all your effort in to finding and concentrating on the positive things around you. I struggled with this for a long time after closing our business due to chronic back pain and although I still have my bad days I do find a lot of comfort in the fact that although I am not out there and working to provide for my family as I think I should, I have this opportunity to spend time with our young children and look for other ways to financially provide for them.

Had this situation not come about I would still be working way too many hours a week and having very little home life which is a huge positive to me. Although times are not as easy financially as they were previously I have had the opportunity to develop an online business and this has provided all of us with a lot more freedom than we had previously. So as you can see if you are looking in the right places you will find positives in your life even though the immediate situation looks very grey indeed. Keep looking with an open mind and you never know what opportunities will come your way!
