How to Cope with Constant Pain

Pain actually means "suffering". This pain or suffering is of two types i.e. emotional or physical. Physical pain is due to some injury that causes discomfort and troubles. People can get rid of physical pain sooner or later. I feel that emotional pain also affects the body and involves physical pain too. The reason is people feel emotional pain more deeply and it leaves long lasting effects. This emotional pain may exist because of a narcissist mother or a father who neglects the siblings and that always makes you feel unwanted. It may also be due to a mental illness, seperation issues or having a wrong life partner. I think people feel emotional pain more deeply because it is often given by those with whom people are deeply attached. It hurts us from the inside and it is very difficult to cope up with such an emotional pain. It destroys the peace of life and makes our every breath difficult.

People suffering from emotional pain need to know how to cope with that otherwise they may indulge in negative activities to overcome or treat this pain like drug addiction which is a serious problem. People usually start taking drugs to stop the pain for the time being. I think people who choose addiction in order to get rid of their pain actually choose an endless pain instead of bringing an end to it. Instead of doing that, they should try to deal with their pain without getting involved in such activities.

Another type of pain, I have experienced in my life is the pain of silence. Being silent, we can feel the deepest pain. Heart is the most fragile part of human body because it feels everything very intensely. In the beginning, pain has an extreme voice but as time passes, pain become soundless and silent. Though the pain becomes silent and noiseless, but it never ends. Feeling worthless because of others is the main cause of this pain. It happens when people judge you, degrade you, and make you feel unwanted. These thoughts force us to live in seclusion and bottle our thoughts in our minds. People are often scared of letting the thoughts come out of their minds. It suffocates them and make them silent. People suffering from pain of silence then become habitual of these circumstances and start adapting to it. For me, silence is a synonymous to pain. When people are dead from inside, they are afraid of speaking and suffer alone by remaining silent. I think that it is the most powerful scream that could ever happen.

In my point of view, it is very difficult to cope up with pain, but not impossible. No pains, no gains.

If would have no pain, they will never learn the important lessons in their lives. They will not know what life is. I think the best way to relieve pain is to accept the faults. They should try to lead their lives by considering pain as the part of life because acceptance of having pain is the only way to get rid of pain. People should also look at the source of pain and try to eliminate that.
