Emotional Support



Emotional support is a very important thing. I didn't realize this until I began to experience chronic pain. It was a very challenging part of my life. I found myself going through different stages, some of which were fear, worry, sadness, anger, and finally acceptance. Once I accepted my pain and suffering I began to feel emotionally stronger. At this time, I began searching for different ways in which I could cope, as well as ways to manage my pain.

I knew I needed to find people that I could relate to in order to get through this challenging time. I found this on YouTube, Google+, and Twitter. Online I can reach out to so many people all around the world that are experiencing the same thing or even something similar. This helped me realize that I am not alone in this whole thing, which helps me stay in a more positive state of mind. I have also been able to connect with people that aren't experiencing the same thing, but yet still continue to give me their continued support.

There are so many kind people in this world and I am grateful for this. I encourage you to reach out to people, if you haven't already. Emotional support is something that we can give to each other and sometimes not even know how huge of a positive impact it can make on a persons life. It did for me...
