A lot of people believe that if they just give something enough time, their body will sort it out on its own — and the pain, restriction, or symptoms they’re experiencing will go away.
The myth is that time alone will change what’s causing the pain.
Sometimes symptoms do quiet down or go away on their own, absolutely.
But when pain keeps returning, shifting, or limiting what you trust your body to do, the underlying issue often hasn’t changed — it just hasn’t been identified yet, and it’s easy to adapt to something never fully resolving. This can make discernment even harder, and it shows up like slowly changing your choices and behaviors without totally realizing it.
It’s also easy to keep waiting just a little longer — especially after a good day, or when things seem like they might finally be changing, or when it isn’t overt, 24/7 pain.
All of this can be happening while the real source of the issue still needs more than just time to move forward.
Being stuck doesn’t mean you’re broken or undisciplined.
It usually means something hasn’t been fully understood.
