Definitely, jemock! (@jemock) I could speak volumes on this (I can't because work calls); in fact, I've posted several times on the power of pleasurable distractions. I say that, yet having been with this community for several months, I've learned that many of us are dealing with excruciating pain. That's humbled me, as it should. I'm blessed with having a PN that doesn't come with pain. I've learned to suspect that I'm in a minority of those with PN. I have to watch myself, however; in the earlier days of my painless PN, I was prone to tell others, Oh, come on, just look on the bright side! Now I'm a little chary about saying that. Still, I'm with you 100%: pleasurable distractions––for those of us for whom they work––can do wonders! Thank you for your post! Stay well! And stat pleasurably distracted!!! 🙂 –Ray (@ray666)
