People don’t understand chronic pain.
They think it’s like a pulled muscle or a bad headache — temporary, fixable, visible.
But chronic pain is like gravity: always there, always pulling, even when you smile or function or pretend it’s fine.
It wears you down in ways people don’t see. And when you try to explain it, you’re met with confusion, disbelief, or silence.
To everyone living in a body that hurts more than it should — I see you. You're not alone in this.
