Chronic Pain A

Colored pencil drawing that looks like a line graph. Rainbow colors. Shows a spike followed by a flat line with a few small waves.

“Most of my days are go through most of my day and it doesn't have that huge psycho hump in it with the red spikes and everything. It's pretty much just kind of even keel green lights into blue for the end of the day and I kind of had that instinctive feeling that those are the colors that I was going to use…

So then it was just like you there's some yellow in there too. And it's like in that transition zone. And yellow to orange … and I'm going yeah, it takes longer to come down from it takes to go up into it…at the end, right, like, you know, dealing with that kind of pain from the sciatic nerve. It's, it wipes you out. It does, you know, so when I go to, you know, after one of these days, I go to bed, you know, a lie down in bed and just kind of go Oh, God. It's like blue and wavy. “

“It makes total sense. That this kind of like, almost like letting go and letting, is it a wave washing over you a wave through your body…”

“The red part. It's like you know, this is spiky when it's like this, you know, it's not a nice, even red. It's nasty, spiky stuff.”
