Pain isolates

Living with chronic pain ain’t no joke. Every appointment, new treatment, and “try this” costs you money, time, and hope. You spend years trying to find someone who actually listens. Information is scattered across forums, buried in social feeds, or locked behind clinic doors. And the voices you need the most, from people who have actually healed, are the hardest to find. I promised myself that when I recovered, I'd use my design skills to make it easier to find trusted voices.

Ironically, the worst part wasn’t the pain, it was the isolation. I couldn’t find anyone my age who had actually healed from this type of pain. All I kept hearing was versions of “this is your life now,” when what I needed was proof of people who got better. Eventually I found two stories, of people who got back to snowboarding and surfing, buried inside a Google Review and an old physio blog. My goal is to ensure no one has to dig that hard to find hope and support.
