I don't know if any of you have noticed what seems to be an explosion of anti-depression medication media ads relentlessly blasting at us. I always mute television advertisements, but notice the up tick, nevertheless.
In many cases, depression is an effect, rather than a cause. The effect is often the result of chronic back pain or other types of chronic pain.
Depression is a serious condition, and nothing to be ashamed of. It has
been reported that as many as 50% of people with chronic pain are
depressed. So, if you are depressed, you are far from being alone.
The signs and symptoms of depression can manifest themselves
differently in each person, but tiredness, sleep disruption, changes in
eating habits, listlessness, and feelings of hopelessness are all quite
common. Notably, depression can then contribute back directly to chronic back and
neck pain, as ongoing aches and pains are a very common symptom of
depression. So, we see this can be a vicious circle and one that medications often cannot break.
In fact, we appear to have a serious problem with pain medication addiction in this country. So serious, in fact, that the White House has hosted a symposium on this topic, recently.
There are alternatives to addictive pain medications for chronic pain. Dr. Kollars has helped many patients to avoid the horror of pain medication addiction through his specialized and highly effective harmonic resonance therapy that targets the causes of chronic pain.
