I understand What you're saying but I have a problem with it. I have chronic pain from having my chest.Cracked twice in five months. I also have.
Pain from having marfan syndrome and having my ligaments be very lax, causing a lot of joint issues. I have had over twenty surgeries and I don't believe that the pain is in my head.
They have made it so if you ask for pain medicine they write you up like you're Some kind of junkie.
I'm not saying it should be handed out like candy but the people who need it, need it.
I also don't believe that the pain is in your head.
I have found over the years.That pain cannot be controlled by your head. Physical pain is physical pain.
I appreciate your input greatly, But I am in physical pain every single day. No one can tell me it's all in my head.

@christine5 I don’t think anyone here is suggesting “it’s all in your head”! Just that some people can and do build up a tolerance to a certain level of pain - but in your case that is not true.
One thing is certain: physical pain is physical pain and you are right, about that.

So unfortunate that you have to live like that. I too, dont believe that you just have to change your inner thoughts. Mind over matter can work to an extent but I agree there is no safe or good pain. I was always taught that pain is your body letting you know that something is wrong.
