Understanding chronic pain

Create with Franz

Chronic pain is an invisible burden, often underestimated and overlooked. On this episode, we delve into the profound connection between chronic pain and mental health with Professional Clinical Counselor J. Cangialosi. Discover how chronic pain can trigger depression and anxiety, and conversely, how mental health struggles can intensify pain.

We'll explore the science behind chronic pain, understanding how it differs from acute pain and its significant impact on daily life. Learn why raising awareness is crucial for those suffering, and how it can improve access to vital medical and mental health care.

More importantly, we'll focus on hope. J. Cangialosi shares practical physical and emotional strategies to manage chronic pain, empowering listeners to regain control and lead fulfilling lives. While the pain may not vanish entirely, this episode offers a path to improved well-being and a renewed sense of possibility. Join us to understand, heal, and find hope in the face of chronic pain.
