If you are one of the millions of people who live their lives in constant discomfort from a chronic condition you may have tried many different ways to help alleviate or mitigate your distress. Medications and other treatments can only do so much to help and options beyond the doctor's office may be limited or expensive. You may find the answer to your dilemma in pain support groups online.
This type of group therapy has proven to be successful for thousands of people who suffer from a wide variety of problems. It can provide assistance in ways that no doctor or therapist can. Knowing that you are in touch with someone who knows exactly what you are going through because they have endured the same conditions can be somehow healing in nature.
Being in a group of your peers, people who have gone through the same or worse conditions can give hope to new individuals and to those who are at the point where they want to give up. By sharing what worked for them with others, the person sharing and the listeners may gain the inspiration to continue with the treatment they are getting. You may also receive advice on new treatments or a more proactive doctor that can be contacted.
Difficulty sleeping is a common complaint for those who are chronically in agony. When this happens you will most likely be able to find a kindred spirit in the room you frequent. The concept of having someone who will help you cope and make encouraging statements regarding your situation at anytime of the day or night is comforting. Developing friendships with the other members can help you get through long painful nights and days.
The rooms that are available for chat on the internet number in the thousands and you can find a group that deals with your condition without too much trouble. Most sites will suggest that you sit back and watch the interchanges in the room for awhile before joining in. You will find that some rooms have a more positive attitude than others demonstrate.
Some sites offer live forums where you can speak to others face to face if you choose to do so. These sites take away some of the anonymous atmosphere of the sharing but may serve to give a more personal face to the rooms where it is available. Many people prefer this method of attending the group of their choice.
Surveys have been taken that show a large body of participation in internet support meetings. Participants regard it as a form of people healing people system that allows the freedom to reveal the lessons they have learned over the years they have been enduring their pain. Some consider the fact that they may help another person carry their burden a therapeutic reward worth having.
Prior to the internet the available group settings were available but somewhat limited. If your condition was not common there was a real chance that there would be no place for you to seek this type of help. The other drawback was that you were obliged to travel to the meeting sites and there was no help available outside the perimeters of the meeting. Support groups have come a long way since those days.
