Those who are not open to working in this area, and/or who lack motivation, or who discount the risks when medications do work for them, are unlikely to be successful with most short-term approaches to managing painful conditions.

"There are 3 new medications in the treatment of chronic post-traumatic pain. These medications have been approved by the U.K. Medicines Commission but there are currently no evidence-based pharmacological treatments for this condition. Many of our patients may be in great need of these medications, but they do not currently have these treatments available. They are in short supply and therefore are going to stay costly. We need large studies of chronic post-traumatic pain in adults to see if we can make a better world by treating it more efficiently." - Anonymous Online Contributor
