I don't know if I agree with you that pain alleviation is enough if pain elimination is possible. I've already been far too stoic in my lifetime in terms of all the pain I have endured. I don't even think I realized until my 20's that most people were not in pain every day.
I sometimes wonder if my psychological pain didn't really get enhanced by how many years of my life I just endured physical pain. I wonder if my depression and other emotional pain might have not come from early messages to "suck it up" re my foot pain as a child and a teenager. But thanks for taking the time to respond.
