I get achy shoulders + back a lot.The pain’s sort of “stuck” for quite sometime.It’s so annoying because I every little movement reminds me of the pain.

Yes I have shoulder and neck pain. I’ve had the pain for years. I think it is partly to blame for my depression.

Yes! It’s my worst symptom. After going to the chiropractor, getting massages, and going to physical therapy I turned to anxiety meds to help release muscle tension. After four weeks I am having so much less pain. I still have triggerpoints activate under the littlest amount of stress but I’m not in chronic pain anymore.
