Description Personally I suffer with DDD (Degenerative Disc Disease). A spinal condition that means the cartilage between my vertebra has worn thin, and some are also bulged. This puts pressure on the spinal nerve and causes me constant back ache and also causes numbness, pins and needles, and pains through the lower half of my body. There is some permanent loss of sensation down the outer side of my left foot too. Not to mention the bladder issues, or the liver issues the painkillers have caused, or the whole other issue of depression.

I made this for anyone who has a chronic condition.
If you use it, I'd also love if everyone could leave a comment of your condition/s.

I have several chronic pain conditions but I prefer not to talk about them, even online where I have some ability to remain anonymous. I don't live with as much pain as some (most of the time), but it most certainly can keep me homebound at times and is disruptive almost daily. Thank you for making this stamp so I can tell people without going into detail what I am dealing with, so they can know what to expect.

I got chronic pain in my entire body
And chronic fatigue..
I feel the strong need to spread awareness of invisible illnesses... conditions people can’t see or doctors can’t figure out, cuz I have one and it sucks when half the people in the world think you’re just a lazy bum.

I feel that need to spread awareness too, you're not alone. Until I had my conditions I had no idea how ableist and uneducated people can be. I still struggle with accepting and managing my conditions, mainly because of how others treat me.Β

Yes it’s crazy how people treated me when I started getting sicker...
Hopefully this will change sooner than later, stay strong <3

Thanks for the lovely stamp. I too, have chronic pain. I suffer from chronic right ankle pain which makes it hard to walk and near impossible to run. I recently got the hardware in that ankle removed a few days ago, so fingers crossed that it helps or eliminates my chronic pain.

Not sure if this counts as chronic pain for anyone else, but it does for me. Irritable Bowel Syndrome sucks. Eating hurts; for me it feels like a knife is writhing around inside me; it pretty much paralyses me, and it can last for hours. A big issue with this one is that it's embarrassing...lots of people who have it also have depression and/or anxiety, me included.

I don’t think doctors would consider it chronic pain but heck it’s misery I feel you friend...

I've been living with Trigeminal Neuralgia, general chronic pain over my body, CFS as well as other debilitating aches and pains (not to mention the wide variety of side effects the medication causes.) It's quite literally a pain, but I try and stay as positive as I can. Thank you for making this stamp.

This is an old stamp, but thanks I've been looking for one. I haveΒ Trigeminal Neuralgia and there are no stamps on my condition, so I appreciate something close. So sorry to hear about your condition too!!

Same reason I made this stamp, it's a vague enough term to cover a whole variety of conditions that otherwise nobody has heard of or made a stamp for.
