Wow that would certainly be a benefit. I take Zoloft for depression due to chronic pain and was told its helps with the pain but I can't say I have noticed a difference in that area. Plus Zoloft is a weight gain med for me.....uugggggg

So thankful we have one another. 🙏

Yes! Yes! Anything that helps Anxiety or Depression will help your pain! When you're anxious you automatically tighten up. Then your muscles spasm, especially around the neck.
So glad you have found relief for your pain. Seems the neck/shoulder area is where stress can cause terrible issues.

Oh I completely agree about this time of year...I always really feel worse and it really takes a lot more effort to get the negative cloud lifted from over my head.
I may ask about the ability as well.
The support here and on the facebook groups is amazing....so thankful to have everyone share this journey - if we must live it at least we have each other. 😘
