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
Exactly. Some suck. Some are assholes. Some are having a bad day.
As a consultant, I’ve been all of these to my clients at one time or another (well, I hope I don’t just suck). I’ve misunderstood them. I’ve made mistakes. Doctors are no exception.
Then there’s personality - you gotta figure out how to communicate with each person, not really any different than at work.
