== Gathering the Evidence Graphic Organizer ==
'''“Luckily, there’s a single solution to overcoming these barriers: evidence. The more evidence you have that there’s nothing wrong with your body, the easier it is to believe that your brain is the culprit.” -Alan Gordon'''
Create an evidence sheet and record anything that convinces you that your pain is neuroplastic. You can use the graphic organizer like the below to get started or create your own.
{| class="wikitable"
|Exception: Pain behaved differently than usual.
|Pain has an unusual pattern (one side of the body, mirror image on both sides)
|Pain moved and or spread.
|Pain changed based on time of day, location, or activity.

Additional evidence could include having multiple diagnoses, experiencing increased pain during stressful situations, having pain is in an area of an old injury that already healed, having pain that is triggered by sounds, light, computer screens, foods, temperature, smells or weather changes.
