Patient-led support groups have emerged as lifelines, offering safe spaces for sharing experiences free from judgment. Reena and Daisy, two resilient individuals, established their own groups to foster community, understanding, and mutual encouragement.

Such efforts are crucial in fostering empathy and encouraging societal acceptance of chronic pain sufferers.
