Wow -- love that. I don't understand it all, but bits of it just jumped out for me. Can you post a version that shows all the bits? My new primary doc is so consumed with concern for my mood, it's like he figures my physical pain will go away if I'll just take enough mood meds. I truly believe pain relief (and I'm not talking about opioids, but treating my disorders) would mean the end of my anxiety-stricken behaviors upon which he is focused.

Hi Misu,
I posted another example of mind mapping I found on the internet. You can google “mind mapping” where they will give you many more examples. But the mind map I made is specific to me. It might resonate…
If this was not what you were looking for just let me know and I’ll try to help.
Customizing your own mind map might be helpful. Its a bit empowering to see the effects in a picture. They say it’s worth a thousand words.
Its troubling when the doctors aren’t hearing us because of anxiety or another. Its like the chicken or the egg. Which came first. I’ve told my doc, anxiety comes from having shortness of breath, not the other way around. Although, I must say for me, that all my health issue makes me anxious. It’s disturbing to say the least. But they should not dismiss pain. Its a signal.
If I can help in any way, just let me know.
