Diary of… a student living in chronic pain

Renee Glick is a third-year doctoral student at the Center for Psychological Studies. She enjoys reading, spending time with friends and learning about nature and animals. Her interests include pain advocacy, research, health psychology and suicide prevention. Her favorite quote is “I think therefore I am,” by Rene Descartes, and her philosophy on life stems from a quote by the Dalai Lama: “Happiness is not something readymade — it comes from our own actions.”
