Having dealt with a pretty severe back injury over the last year and a half with little to no relief after two surgeries, how do you mentally/emotionally cope with the pain knowing it will likely never go away?

I find the hardest physical things I can do without making my pain or injury worse…and I do the hell out of them. I try to enjoy what my body can still do.

SSG (Join to see) I don't have the severity that yo do however I have had success with my Chiropractor. Not covered by V.A. & limited visits by Medicare... but it's only $35.00... worth every penny. I booked weekly for the rest of the year... I'm worth it. I've had success with CBD Oil (Rx Grade & Legal)... as well.

When I hurt my back really bad a few years ago from falling, it was super tough, both on my body and in my head. Some days I tried to keep my spirits up, looking for anything good happening, but sometimes, it just felt like too much.

I reached a point where just trying to stay positive wasn't enough, so I thought I'd try Physiotherapy to see if it could help with the pain and maybe make me feel better about it all. I got help from a physio named MOHAMMAD FASIHIRAMANDI. He showed me exercises just for my kind of back problem. But it wasn't just about moving better. He taught me how to understand what my body could do and what it couldn't, which actually made me feel more in control of my pain. That really helped me feel better overall.
