I have recently discovered that I am hypermobile but social anxiety and the pain prevent me from going to a doctor (also I don’t trust them and they scare me) Do you have any tips on living with chronic pain? Anything from over-the-counter drugs and physical aids to tips for everyday tasks I know I’ll have to talk to a doctor someday but in the meantime I’d like to be able to survive lol
Thanks! Tape helps a lot, but my skin is not a fan of it. It itches very bad, and reaching out to scratch (expecially when the itch is on my back) hurts my shoulders, or just the act of scratching hurts my fingers.
