CHRONIC PAIN & DEPRESSION

Depression is by far the most common emotion associated with Chronic Pain. This type of Depression sometimes goes beyond what would be considered "Occasional Sadness" or "Feeling Down for a Few Days." Major depression is thought to be four times greater in people suffering Chronic Pain. We hope this forum will be beneficial in discussing the emotional aspects of TMJD and Chronic Pain. Always seek professional help if you feel you are suffering Depression.
