Why can nerve pain get worse over time, even when the original injury hasn't changed?

Part of the answer is the NMDA receptor in the spinal cord. When pain signals keep arriving, these receptors switch on and amplify them. This is central sensitisation, and most standard painkillers don't act on it.

Some specialist treatments work at the NMDA receptor to calm this amplification. Response varies between individuals, and a pain specialist can assess whether this approach suits you.

Neuropathic pain is caused by damage or disease affecting the nerves that carry touch and pain signals. Diabetes, shingles and nerve injuries are common causes. Once those nerves are affected, they can keep sending pain signals long after the original cause has passed.

People describe it as burning, shooting or electric pain, or as pins and needles, and even a light touch can hurt. Around 7 to 10% of adults live with it (IASP).

If you’ve had pain like this for three months or more, ask your GP whether a referral to a pain specialist makes sense.

Around 4 in 10 adults with chronic pain also live with clinically significant depression (JAMA Network Open, 2025).

Ongoing pain wears down sleep and mood, and depression and PTSD change how the nervous system processes pain. Treating one without the other can hold back progress on both.

Anodyne's care is led by Dr. Vincenzo Mondello, who is qualified in both psychiatry and pain medicine. If you live with both, ask your GP whether a specialist referral makes sense.

Support is available 24/7: Lifeline 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636.

Today is World Mental Health Day, and this year's theme is "Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change."

Awareness has grown faster than access. Fewer than half of Australians with a mental disorder in the past year saw a health professional about it (ABS). For people whose treatment hasn't worked, specialist care is harder again to find and fund.

That's the gap Anodyne works to close, including fully funded treatment for eligible veterans through DVA.

Support is available 24/7: Lifeline 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636.

When is it time to refer a patient beyond first-line care?

Treatment resistance usually builds slowly, one small medication change at a time. The slides cover four signs worth noting at review, including two or more adequate antidepressant trials without enough response.
You remain the treating doctor, and we report outcomes back to you after assessment.

Mental Health Month is about asking for help. For some people, asking is the easy part.

Around 1 in 3 people with depression don't get enough relief from standard antidepressants, even after trying more than one. This is treatment-resistant depression, a term for how the condition has responded to treatment so far. Anodyne's specialist clinics treat this group.

If that sounds familiar, ask your GP or psychiatrist about a referral.
Support is available 24/7: Lifeline 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636.

A stellate ganglion block is one of the more researched treatments in this space.
The published data covers onset and effect duration, often within the hour for onset and 4 to 12 months of relief from a single procedure.

See what the current evidence shows, and where it fits into treatment.

24/09/2026

Anyone who's started an antidepressant knows the wait. SSRIs take weeks to adjust serotonin gradually.

A different treatment works through glutamate and the NMDA receptor instead, prompting a rapid shift in circuit function. That's why relief can land in hours, not weeks.

That speed matters most for someone in acute distress, when the person and the moment call for something faster than a slow chemical build-up allows.

21/09/2026

PTSD isn't one story. Combat trauma grows from acute, high-threat events. Operational stress builds slowly across a career, with no single moment to point to. Military sexual trauma carries a breach of trust within the institution meant to keep someone safe.

Same diagnosis, different weight. Treating it well starts with recognising which. Anodyne treats PTSD across the veteran and serving community, fully funded for eligible DVA and ADF patients.

10/09/2026

R U OK? Day works because the question is easy to ask. The hard part is what comes after someone says no.

Stay with them. Listen. Ask how long it's felt this way, not just how they are today.

If the usual supports haven't shifted things, the options don't end there. Asking is the start. Knowing where to point them next is what helps.
Need support now? Call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
