Wider health and Ganglion Cysts

Pain is very good at making you feel down, anxious and isolated. It can sap motivation, energy and enthusiasm, and many people feel like their life is on hold.

What’s happening in your life has a large bearing on your pain experience. Examples include loneliness, financial stress, poor nutrition, living with obesity, inactivity, addiction and many more.

Caring for your wider health should not be underestimated when it comes to your recovery. 

Explore our Wider Health page if you need more support with this.

If you are particularly concerned about your mental health, we like to remind the people of Sheffield about the self-referral service called Sheffield Talking Therapies. The website has self-help advice but also a self-referral option. Alternatively, you can call them on 0114 2264380. Also consider speaking to your GP.

There is also advice for what to do if you are in a crisis.
