Hi! I was asked what I'm doing to distract me from my crps pain. A little after sunrise, I take my best friend, my little dog for about 45 min. walk. I really enjoy the calm refreashing air and looking at nature. Very relaxing. During the day, I have learned to put on a soft rock CD's, as pain and anxiety builds, like James Taylor, Micheal McDonald or Dan Folgelburg ect. I know by listing these artist I'm really dating myself. I also will try to find something light, like a comedy movie on TV. Then, about an hour before sunset, my best friend and I go for another long walk, talking to neighbor's along the way, until almost dark. These are thing's that I have learned, from this site in the last month, that I need to do to get out of the worst place for me, my head. Thank's , Darryl

@drg24242 Good stuff here, Darryl. I'm happy to hear that you've learned helpful tools from Connect and are applying them. Awesome! Thank you for sharing that.

Pets are healing and helpful, I'm glad you have one, and that you get out and have a routine. Talking to the neighbors is nice for socialization. Do you ever visit with any of them?
