Let’s Start a Conversation About Pain
This National Pain Week, we’re encouraging all Australians to talk openly about pain — because pain is real, and it’s far more common than many realise. One in five Australians live with chronic pain, affecting their work, relationships, sleep and overall wellbeing. Yet too often, pain is misunderstood or dismissed. By starting a conversation — with your GP, pharmacist, allied health team or even a loved one — you’re taking the first step toward better support, care and quality of life. You’re not alone, and help is available.
