Hey algo_lover, OP here.
Just woke up and this post's traction has surpassed my wildest imagination.
Similar to what pedalpete has said, I'm looking to release this in parts to ensure:
1. I am not overwhelming people and losing their interest
2. Quality remains as high as possible (I invested only a few hours into this last week as an experiment). I want this blog to be the most easily accessible, engaging + factual source for chronic pain sufferers. That requires sufficient time to nail (and it seems like I've struck a chord so far).
3. Get signals from readers week by week and tailor to the audience which is forming.
This will help me helpfully reach the most pain sufferers.
RE feel like you're being sold something. This series will cover what is needed to recover from chronic pain and be offered for free. I am looking to build a product eventually (why wouldn't I want help as many people as posssible while building a career which does good - I don't believe they're exclusive), but the information in this blog will remain free.
RE not calling out Pain reprocessing theory/therapy - I'll go through the post today and see if it makes sense to add this into #1 (or if it's better for #4). It's not something I consciously omitted when writting this post last week.
Thanks for the comment!
