my 21 y.o. daughter’s having that problem right now! the complication with that tho’ is that she’s still in real pain! 🙁
she started seeing a therapist who specializes in that area. in fact, she went to an NA meeting last night (1st time) cuz he suggested it.
since age 17, she’s had back disc problems… which even resulted in a microdisectomy back then. she’s unfortunately had recurring problems & now has another herniated disc w/ a floating disc fragment.
but she feels that her problem is that she still takes her pills even when the pain isn’t so bad. she, herself, felt she has an addiction problem & went to seek help.
(btw~ she has an Orthodox [Chassidishe] therapist.)
