FIGHT UNTIL YOU OVERCOME
Chronic pain gets worse as changes in your body make you more sensitive to pain. You may start to hurt in places that used to feel fine.It can disrupt sleep and cause you to wake up at night. This can make you tired during and not as productive during the day. The ongoing pain can cause additional irritation and make it difficult for you to deal with others.
If you have to care for children or work full-time, all this may make your life seem too challenging. These feelings can lead to irritability, depression, and even suicide.
Depression is one of the most common mental health problems facing people with chronic pain. It often makes someone's other medicalconditions and treatment more complicated.
If you have pain, you may also have anxiety, irritability, and agitation. These are normal feelings when you're hurting. Usually, as pain subsides, so does the stressful response.But with chronic pain, you may feel constantly tense and stressed.
Over time, the stress can result in different emotional problems associated with depression. Some of the problems individuals with both chronic pain and depression have include:
Altered mood
Anger
Chronic anxiety
Confused thinking
Sleep disturbances
Social isolation
Weight gain or loss
Work problems
How Can I Overcome Depression of Pain?
1. Exercise
Talk with your doctor to design an exercise plan that's safe and effective for you.Trips to the gym also help ease depression by releasing the same kind of brain chemicals that antidepressant medications are thought to affect.
2. Consult Therapist
Some time with a therapist can teach you how to change these thought patterns and make you feel better.It's also a proven treatment for depression and can reduce symptoms of anxiety in those with chronic pain.
3. Make Someone Happy Everytime
Team up with a charitable association or even your family to create a treatment plan, fellowship in love, there's so much joy, happiness, fulfillments and supernatural healings in giving.
When chronic pain and depression are combined, the need to work with a doctor (God) is even greater.As you develop a plan, keep in mind that the ideal pain management plan will work a great deal.
Stay committed to the plan until you feel in control of your pain and depression and can fully live your life and do the things you enjoy.
