The 'rewards' of pain: chronic pain and marriage don't mix well

        THE 'REWARDS' OF PAIN: CHRONIC PAIN AND MARRIAGE DON'T MIX WELL
Understandably, chronic pain and marriage don't mix well. The divorce rate for chronic pain patients is remarkably high and is possibly related to the avoidance of sexual activity by many chronic pain sufferers.This, understandably, places relationships under great stress — particularly if there are existing problems. Pain is a great magnifier. Tolerance levels are already low and the resulting emotional stress is greater than many relationships can stand. A breakup adds to the patient's downward emotional spiral.
Some may be urged by well-meaning family or friends, or even the doctor, not to 'overdo' it — which they sometimes carry out so zealously as to become so physically weakened that they have no choice but to take things easy! The traditional game, pointed out by Eric Beme in his excellent book The Games People Play, includes: 'Try to cure me if you can!' This is very common among pain patients, who actually challenge the doctor to cure them. If patients have too often been encouraged to take things easy, it then becomes very difficult to convince them that physical activity may be increased without risking physical harm!
