Does Back Pain Lead To Brain Drain?
Back pain is a very common disease by which people get afflicted worldwide. It has been rightly termed as a ‘lifestyle disorder’. A general cause of a Back pain is sitting or standing in bad postures, though there can be various other medical reasons to it.
But as the saying goes: ‘nothing is alone in this world’, the same is true with the Back pain. Back pain not only involves physical suffering but it also comes with a plethora of other sufferings. Your professional and social life too suffers due to it.
Various new age studies have come up with a direct relationship between your back pain and the brain. With the help of various comparisons of the brain size, made between two sets of people of the same age group, one who was afflicted with back pain and the others who were found to be totally fit, showed a deviation. People who suffered from back pain showed an acute shrinkage in their brain size, of up to 1.3-centimeter cube per year. Further it was shown that till the time the pain lasted, the brain’s size kept on shrinking. In case of chronic pain, the brain loss was faster as compared to the shrinkage in mild pain.
But there are still some questions that remain unclear with this theory, as to whether the brain loss associated with back pain is permanent or it remains till the pain lasts. Some researchers argue that there have been cases where, there was a decrease in the grey matter that led to shrinkage of the brain without any neuron loss. That means that the effect was only on the brain size and there occurred no memory loss. This statement brings us to the fact that the process of brain loss can be reversed with the help of an effective suggested treatment.
But the reason for this relationship between loss of grey matter and back pain still remains uncertain. But still, researchers have tried to answer this relationship to some extent. They are of the view that development of negative mood and intense stress and pressure can be a cause of this process of degeneration of the brain cells.
So the only way out to this problem is by following various psychological therapies that will help you relieve stress and give you peace out of both, your back pain and brain drain.

So heres another poem/story. tell me if its good Warning very dark!?Contemplating taking this blade and tearing flesh bone. Taking it deep into my soul. Puncturing my heart and letting all my feelings go. Sitting in this puddle of blood. Seeing visions of scarlet red. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME INSIDE MY HEAD! Voices screaming DO IT, tearing at my brain SLIT YOUR WRISTS…COME ON YOU ENJOY THE PAIN! Demons swirling in my visions beckoning me to join them. The man in red whispering in my ear “Come my son relinquish to me your soul to me and we will be one.” Falling down into the black abyss. Why did I let my life come to this?
This suicidal romance I have with this blade. I cry and it conforts me. Slicing flesh from bone. Leading the way into the dark. Draining my blood. Draining my pain out onto the floor. I follow the man in red down the long corridor…screams and moans coming out of every door. He leads me to my doom. I walk into my cage. The dead bodies with the heads of all my fears are clawing at my back. I faint on the floor. I wake as I see my reflection in the blade. My face…my eyes I’ve changed…. I’ve become the man in red. I take the blade and slice away what isn’t there. My eyes rolling past me on the floor I scream as I awake. I’m back in the corridor. Stuck forever to relive all my sins…. Dream all my fears. The man in red is back along with a man in black. He whispers to me in his evil tongue. You my son will spend the rest of eternity with ME! YOU CANNOT CONTROL ME I SCREAM. I rip at the bars…clawing with fangs that aren’t there. He takes his weapon of death, and tears a whole in my chest. Holding my still beating heart in his boney hand he screams YOU WILL OBEY MY EVERY DEMAND! I can’t see his face his cloak hides it. He goes and sits in the corner. As he is looking down holding his scythe in one hand and my heart in the other. I hear the others screaming bloody murder. I find my blade…my lover. I cut away my soul. The man in red can’t have what doesn’t exist. As I see myself float away. The man in black stands up and screams. I AM THE KEEPER OF SOULS! As he fly’s over me to catch it I grab his cloak and pull him down. I take his scythe and relinquish him of his crown. NOW I AM THE KEEPER OF SOULS I scream. I put on my cloak, and take my scythe. The man in red returns, and I give him the reapers soul. THAT WAS VERY BOLD BUT NOW YOU WILL FEEL YOUR BLOOD TURN COLD AS YOU DECEND INTO DARKNESS! He screams. I accept my fate as the keeper of souls. I wake up and see my lover once again. She is scarlet with my blood
i didnt make this up it was a dream
i would have but..thats what he said in my dream
u want aan actual poem? look at what do you think about this poem and no its not in stanzas
Honestly, it sounds a bit too cheesy. You could convey a very dramatic mood without using the so very cliche phrase "slit your wrists". Usually the best poems are those which do not directly use the theme word. Example: I have read many poems about love, yet not once was the actual word "love" written in it. This just sounds like a typical high school poem that one of those self proclaimed "goths" would compose. Don't get me wrong, though. This has potential, but the omnipresent gore gets old. Space it out. That could even make a gereater impact on your audience. Also, much of the rhyming and vocabulary is fairly elementary. I'm not saying that a poem is "bad" if it doesn't have slightly more advanced wording, but again, this sounds too sad little high schooler who would like to gain some attention. Look at Poe's works. His short stories are not line after line blood and gore. He builds up, creating that final suspense. He also limits dialogue. Many of his pieces spend pages of solid information. In your poem, you use frequent dialogue. Instead of writing out what someone is saying, you could describe the situation to decrease the corny level. i.e. (pure example) "I felt my body weaken by the numbness which washed through me, as he lifted his saber still crimson with fresh blood…"References : Years of classic writing studies, literature courses, degrees, and teaching
