Letting Go of Anger Towards Medical Professionals

Chronic pain often leads to feelings of anger and resentment, particularly towards doctors who have failed to provide timely support. It is emphasized that holding onto anger can be more harmful to the individual than to the target of that anger, likened to drinking poison and expecting it to harm someone else. Instead of merely attempting to forget this anger, individuals are encouraged to explore it constructively, using it as motivation to advocate for better care, both for themselves and for others who might be suffering similarly. This proactive approach not only assists in personal healing but also allows an individual to potentially help others who are experiencing similar frustrations.
