Still Here: Living, Surviving, and Finding Meaning While in Chronic Pain (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798249575656)

Living with chronic pain means living in a body that does not give you breaks.
It means waking up already exhausted, measuring life in tolerable moments, and carrying suffering that others cannot see.

Still Here is not a book about fixing pain.
It is a book about surviving it.

Written for those living with relentless, life-altering pain, this compassionate guide speaks to the exhaustion, grief, isolation, and quiet endurance that come with daily suffering.

With clarity and care, Lori Caputo-Hartford explores how chronic pain affects the nervous system, identity, relationships, and the will to keep going without offering false hope or empty reassurance.

Validation for pain that does not end
Language for experiences that often go unspoken
Gentle tools for surviving the hardest days
Permission to rest, grieve, and want relief
Support for moments when staying feels difficult

This book does not ask you to be strong.
It does not ask you to be positive.

It meets you where you are without pressure, without judgment, and without pretending this is easy.

If you are living with chronic pain and wondering how to continue, this book does not try to fix you.

It simply sits beside you and says:

You are still here.
And that matters.
