Self-compassion is part of the motivation to relieve one's suffering and develop skills to do so. Considering chronic pain as a suffering with multiple dimensions, this study proposes to verify the effects of self-compassion in the treatment of pain from a systematic literature review. The databases used for this study were: VHL Regional Portal, Pubmed (Medline), Scielo and Google Scholar, between the years 2017 and 2020. Seven articles were included in the review, which generally showed the following results: strengthening of a value-based life, improvements in pain level, mental health, self-efficacy of pain, reduction of catastrophism, association between self-pity, less pain and high Heart Rate Variability (HRV), reduction of pro-inflammatory biomarkers, improvements in Fibromyalgia (FM) functional status, happiness and optimism. It is concluded that self-pity promotes several beneficial effects in the treatment of pain and that its indication is very relevant for these cases given the multidomensional character of pain.

From a socio-anthropological perspective, this paper aims to contribute to the knowledge of suffering chronic migraine. For this reason, qualitative research was conducted through interviews with neurologists and people with this condition in a hospital in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The main objective is to explore, through the narratives of people suffering this condition, the experiences, daily practices and trajectories of care for this type of headache. Some features of migraine, which differentiate it from other chronic pain and influence the way patients relate to their environment, is that migraine does not allow to check facts and does not have a certain etiology or effective treatment. From this, the subjects say that in some cases, the pain is associated with the excuses and lack of legitimacy. Furthermore, through the stories, it is observed that migraine becomes part of the biography of the person. Finally, most patients said to have become accustomed to these headaches and have patience, something that affects the relationship with themselves and others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
