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?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member

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.

How Do I Share A Picture Of My Companion Animal.
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

His name is Bugsie, were together 24\7, sometimes he's my only company. He warns me when Ive got a migraine coming on. He keeps me active when I'm able but is quite happy just hanging out on the couch watching a movie or curling up in bed with me in bad days.

I don't think I'd make it out of bed or leave… read more

Other than therapy and antidepressants?
I've used music , art and other distractions but sometimes that stuff doesn't help. And what happens when u can't hardly walk because of the pain? Do u just fade into seclusion? How do you get up and going when u feel like giving up?
