Chronic Pain Writers Unite: Let's Share Our Stories

I love to write short stories and poems! It helps me mentally for my ptsd. I think you gave me something to write about now! Thank You!

I wrote a few paper for my English class this past semester!!

Wow it seems like there’s a bunch of other people that write! Each of you bring up such great points and have awesome ways in you write. Thank you

I do write occasionally (was an older hobby) but most of it was about my mental disorders And processing my life. One did overlap into talking about my chronic illnesses but I didnt know what they were so didnt focus too much on it. That will be changing this year as it helped a lot. Thanks for the reminder

I have been trying to work on full length stories where characters deal with this stuff in a way that will hopefully help the non-disabled population understand a bit better all the little things we have to think about.

hey Julia :) I’m maddie, also 20. I’ve definitely written some pieces on my chronic illnesses. it’s been helpful in the long run

That is a great way to process! I will have to try that out. Awesome suggestion. 🙌

I don’t really write poetry, but I will make up characters and stories where they have the chronic pain and writing out how they feel about it helps me to process what I’m feeling
