Caring and community can help your pain management.

“When you have pain, if you can care for something outside yourself, it gives you hope and a purpose in life.” - M&M

Mark and Monica Neubauer are continuing their discussion on Pain Management in their 3rd episode on Mark’s Pain Journey. This episode focuses on CARING & COMMUNITY and how it can help manage pain. Caring for something outside yourself can be a good distraction from your pain, allowing you to find purpose and meaning in your life again and make you realize that your life IS worth living.

Forms of Caring:

  • Caring for yourself

  • Caring for your Spouse & family

  • Taking care of Plants

  • Taking care of an Animal

  • Caring about the community

M&M Words of Wisdom:

  • “What contributes to a better sense of well-being for you?”

  • “Your primary job is taking care of your body. Don’t feel bad about the time you need to take in order to care for your body”

  • “Give Yourself Permission! Know your body’s limitations”

  • “When you have pain, if you can care for something outside yourself, it will give you hope and a purpose in life.”

  • “If you can remove the obstacles that prevent you from doing what you need to do in life, you will have a smoother path through your pain journey.”

  • Find what you can do, don’t focus on what you can’t do.”

  • “If the roles in a relationship changes, find a new role.”
