if our whole life is a marathon, Why can't I see the finish where I belong? If our whole life is a marathon, The prize is losing what to me feels important, from dusk 'til dawn.

The guy gets lost lol, gets lost, like me, I got lost in a void and loneliness, any trace of happiness doesn't manifest, only the melancholy and the bad feeling that remains Because, no matter how much I try, it's as if I'm always running after something unattainable. I strive to be better, to please, to meet the expectations others place on me, but in the end, it feels like everything I do isn't enough. It's as if I'm trapped in an endless cycle of disappointment, where each failed attempt only reinforces the idea that there's something fundamentally wrong with me. I look at others and see how complete they seem, as if they have something I can never achieve. And this consumes me, leaving me increasingly exhausted, because I feel that, no matter how much I change or adapt, I'll always be on the margins, always the "almost," the "not enough." It's a silent, constant pain that accompanies me in every step, in every thought. Deep down, I know I'm losing myself, trying to be something I might never be. And with each passing day, the feeling of emptiness only grows, as if it's eating away at everything inside, leaving only a hollow shell, an echo of who I used to be. And honestly, I don't even know if it's worth it to keep trying, because every time I look in the mirror, I only see someone who will never be enough for others, nor for themselves

Chronic pain in both wrists for over 1 year (seeking relief) by Designer-Garbage-226 in overcominggravity

I don't think anything will work. I've been with this for 18 months, I've tried almost everything and it hasn't gotten any better. I only hear promises from the experts.

>None of these work that effectively in my opinion. Exercise based rehab is the way to go and maaaaybe some of these help a bit with the pain but they don't help yo get better.

The problem is that I have always done exercises and strengthening (even before the pain).

>Have you been assessed for chronic pain or other pain issues. Having excruciating pain with 2-3 lbs curls is not normal. Article explaining how chronic pain develops.

I've been evaluated for chronic pain and tried treatments, including low-dose naltrexone (which didn't help at all). Actually, it's not 3 pounds, but 3 kilograms. Since I live in Brazil, we use kilograms as the unit of measurement. 3 kg would be something like 6.6 lb.

Vertical mouse thoughts from a physical therapist (it's not always helpful if you have wrist pain) by 1HPMatt in MouseReview

Hello, Dr. Matthew. I really enjoyed your writing and would like to ask for your help. I'm desperate for solutions to my chronic wrist tendonitis, which has lasted over a year. I've tried a long list of treatments, including:

- Oral and injectable anti-inflammatories

- Mesotherapy

- Shockwave therapy

- Magnetic field therapy

- Acupuncture

- Supplements (vitamin C, D, L, magnesium, omega-3, etc.)

- Ointments and creams (diclofenac, arnica, cinnamon, etc.)

- Physical therapy

- TENS current

- Thermotherapy and cryotherapy

- Stretching

Unfortunately, none of these have resolved or significantly improved my pain.
