Top 10 Sonya Huber Quotes (2024 Update)

Sonya Huber Quote: “Chronic pain patients like me are not the cause of the opioid crisis; only 22% of those who misuse opioids are prescribed them by a doctor, and only 13% of ER visits for opiate overdoses were chronic pain patients. Most chronic pain patients are rule-followers who just want to function.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “I will be living with chronic pain for the rest of my life. I don’t have the mobility, energy or life options I used to have. I work hard to manage the pain, and I want the medical system to be a respectful and effective partner, not a jailer. The opioid crisis is not my doing.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “I take opioids to treat chronic pain. Stigmatizing them will harm me.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “I do not try to look sexy or cute. Pain pushes even gender out of the way, even vanity, even the hopes of looking like someone else. In some ways, pain returns me to childhood, my eyes to the naked, peaceful orbs of animals.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “Empathy is an act of the imagination that grows from a gut-twinge of sympathy, a notion that I would not like to feel what that poor other person is feeling. We override our own flinching instinct to ask what another person’s suffering might feel like.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “I want to be better than my pain, but I cannot will my way through it. I have willed my way through so much pain in my life, and now I have come up against pain that is bigger than my will.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “Chronic pain is not a missing limb or open wound; it is the essence of invisible suffering... I wish I sparkled. I wish my pain made me beautiful, made me more noble, or was a fashion statement. Instead it is just pain, wordless and desperate for expression.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “The body in pain is a deviant body that defies expectations, refuses the easy boxes of sick and well.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “Desire and love have to grapple first with reconstituting themselves in a body that has been altered to its core.”
Sonya Huber Quote: “Our fix-it-itis is not a simple social gaffe but the evidence of a deep blind spot born with the help of the market. We are educated about illness by television commercials... A puzzle like me that cannot be solved is a point of discomfort, a disjuncture, a black hole... My body is a discomfort, a burr in the hide of the marketplace itself, a reminder that not all pain can be treated with a purchase.”
