If you’ve been living with chronic pain—pain doctors can’t explain, pain that doesn’t respond to treatments, pain that keeps you up at night—we have the answer for you today.

Maybe you’ve been told it’s all in your head. You’ve tried everything: medications, therapies, specialists. But the pain is still there, and no one’s been able to tell you why.

In this episode of The Robert Gene Experience, Robert Gene and Crystal Derksen break down the powerful connection between childhood trauma and chronic physical pain—and explain how the brain captures information from past experiences, and the body expresses it.

Robert addresses why the phrase “the body remembers” is misleading and unpacks the truth behind the popular book title “Feelings Buried Alive Never Die.” If you’ve ever believed those ideas, you’ll want to hear what he has to say—because the real answer is in how the brain holds information.

We cover key topics such as:

The impact of childhood PTSD on chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and lupus

The truth about phantom pain and sympathy pain

The misnomer of the phrase “Feelings Buried Alive Never Die”—and why it’s actually memories that continue to affect us

The placebo and nocebo effect—and what they teach us about how pain is created

How chronic pain is the brain’s way of protecting you based on past learned experiences

If you're ready to finally understand what your pain is really about—and why nothing else has worked—this conversation will shift everything.
