Living with chronic is a major challenge for most people—I know it is for me.  One of the reasons so many people struggle concerns not identifying all the coexisting conditions or problems that could be interfering with effective chronic pain management.  I cover these in-depth in my publications (e.g., Managing Pain and Coexisting Disorders and the Addiction-Free Pain Management® Recovery Guide) and this month my new article is entitled Overcoming Obstacles for Effective Pain Management that you can download for free on our Article Page.

I want to just post the bulleted highlights of that article here.

The Problem

• * Undiagnosed Coexisting Disorders

• * The Denial Blindfold

• * The Depression and Isolation Pit

The Solution

• * Knowledge is Power

• * Pain is our Friend—not our Enemy

• * Treating the Bio-Psycho-Social Components of Pain

• * The Addiction-Free Pain Management® System
