The husband is experiencing chronic pain that started a while back but is now unbearable. He wants to see a doctor first and wants to see if there is something serious. The wife suggests making an appointment with the doctor and reminds him to stop trying to ignore the pain and focus on the task at hand instead.

I can't deal with the pain anymore. It's getting worse every day.

What kind of pain are you experiencing?
human
It's a dull ache that started a while back, but now it's just constant and unbearable.
gpt
Have you seen a doctor about it?
human
Not yet. I wanted to try some painkillers first to see if that would help.
gpt
Maybe you should make an appointment with the doctor just to be sure. It could be something serious.
human
Yeah, you're probably right. I'll make an appointment tomorrow.

Do you remember when you were taking flying lessons? How did you deal with the stress and anxiety?
human
I just focused on the task at hand and tried to stay calm. Maybe I can try the same thing with this pain.
gpt
That's a good idea. And remember when we were discussing that sensitive topic and you realized that I was right? Maybe this is another situation where you need to rethink your approach.
human
You're right. I need to stop trying to ignore the pain and actually do something about it. Thank you for helping me see it from a different perspective.

Of course. That's what partners are for, to support each other through the ups and downs.
