People without chronic pain just don’t get it. They get to wake up every day, live their lives, and not feel horrible in their bodies. They can bend and move as they please, just to go to bed and do the same thing the next day. If you are constantly in pain, it takes more effort to get out of bed than it takes for a person unencumbered by pain to do their whole day, and that’s just not fair.

It’s easy to get down in the dumps about chronic illness, but that’s not what we’re here to do. We’re here to laugh as much as we can about our dire situation, and what better way to laugh a little bit than with a nice big, juicy list of memes? These pain memes won’t put you in more pain, and although they won’t cure anything, they will make a day of pain a little happier.
