The emotional symptoms of anxiety or depression can often manifest as physical pain, which is undeniably real for many individuals. Although pinpointing a specific physical cause for the pain can be challenging, it should not be dismissed as being merely psychological. Pain affects us on both physical and emotional levels. Notably, anxiety and depression can reduce pain tolerance and heighten pain perception. Therefore, individuals dealing with chronic pain may benefit from seeking behavioral health therapy to address the emotional aspects of pain alongside the physical symptoms.
