I have recently discovered that I am hypermobile but social anxiety and the pain prevent me from going to a doctor (also I don’t trust them and they scare me) Do you have any tips on living with chronic pain? Anything from over-the-counter drugs and physical aids to tips for everyday tasks I know I’ll have to talk to a doctor someday but in the meantime I’d like to be able to survive lol

    Lidocaine roll on liquid. You can find it at any pharmacy, or lidocaine/ salon pas patches. Also a tens unit is very helpful for pain disruption.
