Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than your physical health. It can change your mood, relationships, routines and sense of independence. Support can help you adjust, cope with the emotional impact and find ways to live well alongside your condition.
Living with or caring for people with pain or chronic illness does more than hurt your body. It causes emotional stress, increases mental fatigue, lowers energy levels. It may even lead to depression or anxiety. In turn, it can often impact self management, impacting the way you eat, sleep, diet, socialise and have fun.
There is hope. There are effective, evidenced based treatments for dealing with health/chronic pain/ illness issues.
