I did a pretty simple teeth whitening treatment. The chemicals penetrate some micropores in the tooth and "explode" there, causing pain on very small disturbances like breathing cold air trough the mouth. It was gone after one day but it was enough to make all aspects of life miserable well before I had to endure the next session. Just kept thinking "what about people that have chronic pain for months or years?!"

- notatoad 8y agoI had the same awakening when I flew off my bike into a tree a couple years back. Just ever-present pain, not debilitating but enough that it couldn't be ignored, for about a month and a half. Until then I'd never even come close to understanding the hell that chronic pain sufferers must go through. It changes everything. There isn't a choice you make that isn't in some way impacted by the pain.
