Coping/connecting Music Playlist.
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m curious to know for all my family out there, what music do you listen to when coping or trying to connect with your higher power? If you don’t have a higher power, what do you use to connect with yourself at the deepest levels?

Well This Is A Bad Day. Ever Feel Like Everything Bad Seems To Seek Out Your Depression Days?
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

So yeah I had aqua therapy yesterday and I am in pain today, we are both depressed and trying to get through it and we just found out Anthony Bourdain committed suicide, due to depression! On top of all this, there are certain people who I am trying to distance myself from, that won't quit texting me in an attempt to pull me back in. I am already in pain, am depressed, they disrespected that and caused me trouble and I find out Anthony died! What's a person to do?!

I have tried Insight Timer. It has many different meditations and even LOA affirmations. Sometimes, though, I fall asleep while they're talking and then wake up when they finish, so oh, well.

Does Anyone Else Suffer Weight Issues Due To Medication?
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi, I have been on Lyrica for about 6 months and have put on about 12 kgs. The problem is it is mostly around my middle section and added to the chronic pain it is getting me down. Has anyone else experienced weight gain while on Lyrica and how do you combat it. Really need to be able to lose some of this weight as the extra kgs are making my back pain worse.

Hi Ive just made the BIG mistake of insisting on going to what we have in Scotland called a Pain Management clinic
