Today, Pete Moore and I discussed learned helplessness as it relates to long-term health conditions. It is the state of giving up that occurs when a subject learns that nothing they do changes what happens to them, leading to a stable expectation that future actions will be equally futile.

I resonate with the philosophy of “use the difficulty” as it relates to challenges with long-term health conditions. We know It’s not easy, but if we reframe our relationship to what can I do, that is empowering & increases locus of control. When there are no cures, adaptation & management are key.

@paintoolkit.bsky.social & I offer our limited experience with AI & our thoughts on how it can be beneficial for people living with pain & other long-term health issues.

The AI landscape is developing extremely fast. Where will it go & how fast will it get there?

We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Another interesting conversation with @paintoolkit.bsky.social. It’s important to be prepared for one’s appointment with a healthcare provider. It’s challenging living with & managing persistent pain & other conditions. For some (many), medical appointments can be stressful, for several reasons.

Today’s conversation with @paintoolkit.bsky.social could have been a two-parter. When we talk about the “cost” of living with persistent pain, the financial costs are important, but as important are the psychological, emotional, social, and other environmental costs.
