Impact of Negative Thinking on Chronic Pain
Negative thinking patterns can directly influence chronic pain and symptoms due to their neuroplastic nature. Research indicates a correlation between high levels of fear, hopeless thoughts, and obsessive thinking with prolonged back pain and symptoms. This negative thinking not only affects physical symptoms but also dysregulates the nervous system, perpetuating pain. By addressing negative thinking patterns, particularly fear thoughts and critical self-talk, individuals can work towards regulating their nervous system and reducing chronic pain.
