Dr. Wright:
And then looking to situations and people who can support them out of that pain, whether it’s playing cards with a friend, but it’s in the engagement. The hazard with pain is the isolation. “I can’t do it because it hurts; I can’t.” And that becomes a mantra that’s a self-fulfilling prophecy. So what you want to do is, “I can do this, but maybe not as much as.” Just being respectful and mindful of your limitations but not separating themselves from the world.
