Nahal DelpasandGUEST
If I'm dealing with a patient with chronic pain or somebody who's really, you know, been affected their quality of life, there is a level of frustration, almost a level of anger, and that kind of intensity and emotion affects an increase in, in that opposition.

Nahal DelpasandGUEST
So, you know, in my work, we, we parse that out and, you know, I, I help my patients understand, right, that of course, that is part of the lived experience and we wanna understand it.

Nahal DelpasandGUEST
But also too, you know, how can we address the other parts of the equation, which are, you know, how are you more aware? How are you more responsive? I think the awareness and responsiveness when we are dealing with something that we don't typically deal with physically, that awareness increases.

Nahal DelpasandGUEST
So on one level, yes, you- we're upset and we're- we, we wanna be in opposition with it.
