About this episode
The usage of pain medication can be a helpful tool in coping with an injury or illness, but the fact is, some people really need pain meds and some really don't. Add to the equation the various side effects and potential for addiction, and this delineation becomes even more critical. In this episode of The Brain Warrior's Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen introduce the concept of "Skills or Pills?" to illustrate when it may be necessary to use pain medication, and when you can utilize other, more natural techniques to help get you through the painful times.
