As for the glove before I was dx with the RSD/PN I was put in an airboot and was in this for months and it made my condition worse because I lost so much range of motion. Getting out of the boot was so hard and so painful because my ankle/foot was used to being a certain way and protected but in the long run was making things worse.
As for acceptance, I think for myself after 3 years I deal better mentally with this then in the start. I am more rational and calmer. Not to say I don't have my days but overall. For me though I may have the same pain physically dealing with it in a better manner helps me get through the days. I'm not saying you have this problem but my experience. I do have a far way to go on this and trying to create a better life through the barriers.
Feel better all.
