"Someone on our operating team had made a grave mistake, but no matter who it was or what it was, the responsibility of leading the effort to stabilize the patient lay on one person: the anesthesiologist." Read the latest Mind to Mind short story: https://t.co/xhiHLnHXsV
Why Use Antidepressants for Pain?
• Pain is a nervous system function designed to protect the body from harm. But sometimes, pain persists beyond injury or happens without a clear injury.
• When pain becomes chronic (e.g., fibromyalgia, migraines), it's considered dysfunctional—no longer serving its protective purpose.
• Chronic pain can trigger a cycle:
-Increased pain perception
-Decreased activity
-Emotional withdrawal
-Negative emotions
• Antidepressants help break the cycle. Acting on the nervous system, they can reduce pain.
Fantastic work by @JacksonHeatherJ and Katherine Cloud!
The "Fundamentals of Excellent Pain Management Care" program was outstanding and drew a large, diverse, and engaged audience.

Colleagues, I need your input. What is your group’s model for pain, particularly interventional pain? Why?
We have a time-based system that in my opinion is suboptimal for patient access, education, and the ability to provide cutting-edge pain treatments.
