Chronic pain

Who is dealing with chronic pain and do you have any “coping mechanisms” that you’ve found are actually successful?

I have back issues that I have a painkiller prescription for. However, due to a change in insurance, it’s not getting refilled. Im already active and athletic, as much as I can be.

Are there other methods that work for you? I want to just sink into my deepest pit of darkness at times…just give the fuck up. But I’m trying to resist that as best I can.
