As a crip I live and breath pain but so does my wife, so simply part of our makeup in life and accept it, we live with it as a devoted couple!

Hello everyone,
How are you feeling today?
Living with chronic pain can sometimes put a strain on relationships with family, friends, or even coworkers. It’s hard to explain what you’re going through when others can’t see it, and managing expectations or social commitments when pain flares up can feel overwhelming.
How has chronic pain impacted your relationships? Do you have any tips for communicating your needs or setting boundaries with those around you?

Whether it’s learning how to say “no” without guilt, explaining your condition to loved ones, or finding ways to stay connected despite limitations, your experiences can help others navigate similar challenges. 💬💙
Take care,
