Emotional Support

Post by polarbear »

Hi everyone,

Is there an area in this forum for the emotional/psychological impact of pne ( depression, anxiety etc..)?

Gail, often we have those discussions in the social or chapel section of the forum because those are not publicly viewable -- only registered members can go there. Depression and anxiety certainly are a major part of PN/PNE so if everyone wants it we could set up a separate section for it. I'll ask the moderators.

PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.

Hi.

A forum specifically for emotional and/or psychological support would be extremely helpful. Consideration for this would be most appreciative.
