Chronic pain and its toll on mental health

I'm part of a group for CRPS (Complex Regional Pain) and a major issue is how 24/7 pain affects our mental health. What is also high is lack of support for this well except here take a pill.

I attend the qigong group and it has helped me so much and then there's good old divertion
I totally agree about the need for more support in this area and like your idea
I wish there was more support for people experiencing chronic pain - but with the understanding that pain is there on a good and bad day - for me, the only change is how well my head can cope with it, and thats where I need the help!
