My name is Briana and I have occipital neuralgia. Please can someone answer me this dying question. How to live with the pain? How to make people that don't have pain understand that you are?

Hello Briana,

Welcome to the NeuroTalk Support Groups.

I'm very sorry that you're in so much pain. Did this come on after an head injury? I see you've posted on the Occipital Neuralgia Forum. It's a little quiet at the moment. You could also check on the
Chronic Pain Forum

There are some useful resources and websites regarding ON in the "Sticky" thread at the top of the ON Forum as well.
