So fed up of psychosomatic pain
 
How can I get it to go away? I can't handle it anymore. :(

I understand. It's so hard, isn't it? Even when the emotions beneath are faced, it doesn't seem to go away.

The best thing I can suggest is to be gentle with yourself. Psychosomatic pain is often set of by stress and anxiety, and so working to reduce the triggers for these and to work on ways to calm yourself, such as breathing exercises.

Know also that a lot of psychosomatic pain is made worse by overthinking about it - so try distractions and treat it in the same way as you would a panic attack, in that, once you have regained controll, it is more likely to go away, and will do you no real harm.

I hope things improve for you soon.
