This support group is designed to create **a safe, empathetic space where you can connect with others who truly understand your struggles.** Here, you’ll find solace, share your journey, and learn practical coping mechanisms to better navigate your daily life with chronic pain. **Who is the Group For?** This group is open to anyone living with chronic pain, regardless of its cause or form. Whether your pain stems from systemic conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, or malignancies; injuries or surgeries; or is localized to areas such as the lower back, pelvis, abdomen, or manifests as headaches and migraines, you will find a supportive community here. If chronic pain impacts your life, this group is for you. **What We’ll Talk About:** * **Living with Chronic Pain:** Share and hear personal stories about what it's like to live with chronic pain and how it affects every aspect of life. * **Impact on Life:** Discuss how chronic pain affects relationships, social interactions, and everyday activities, from chores to professional responsibilities. * **Social Stigma:** Explore the societal misconceptions and judgments surrounding chronic pain, and how to cope with being misunderstood or dismissed by others. * **Existing Strengths and Coping Resources:** Identify and build on your own strengths and the coping strategies you already use to manage your pain. * **Creating a Resource Pool:** Collaborate to form a collective pool of resources, tips, and strategies that everyone in the group can access and benefit from. **What to Expect:** Our sessions are structured yet flexible, allowing for both guided discussion and open sharing. Each meeting provides an opportunity to express your thoughts and feelings, learn from others, and contribute to a supportive community. You’ll leave each session with new insights and practical strategies for managing your pain. **Register at: [https://www.soulup.in/products/support-groups-living-with-chronic-pain](https://www.soulup.in/products/support-groups-living-with-chronic-pain)**
