Agreed. I remember the strange sensation I felt the first day I stopped hurting after an accident several years earlier...
"There is no pain plenty of smoke and anti-depressants can't fix." i am not so sure about that, besides smoke and anti-depressants can also be a cause not just a solution...
"Then liquor, mix that with some type of speedy drug, your depression will turn to anger and you will punching walls and breaking shit in no time." which leads to bad choices which lead to more depression... drugs are fun but not the solution to many things...
"Beer, the cause of, and solution to, all life's problems." You can escape the pain with copious quantities of drugs and booze, but it is only a temporary solution, and it doesn't fix it. Eventually, you sober up, well, unless you're really rich and never run out of cash.
I've had 2 drinks this year so far. One was a glass of Rye and root beer, it wasn't bad. The other was a shot of vodka, well more like a triple shot... They say booze makes you forget, but that's b.s., it only allows you to put the pain aside for awhile, you never forget. Maybe large doses of LSD and electric shocks might make you forget though....
Back in the 60's the CIA hired a Canadian doctor in Montreal, I think, to do some brainwashing experiments for them. He erased some peoples memories completely, and one woman with 5 kids had no memory of them afterwards. I am not sure, but think it was part of the MK Ultra project. Mel Gibson was in a movie called Conspiracy Theory that mentioned the subject, and Patrick Stewart played the evil doctor that messed up his mind. Some say that the guy who shot Robert Kennedy was brainwashed to do it. He said he thought he was just going up to him to shake his hand...
It depends SOOOOOOO much on the situation! I usually have a high tolerance for physical pain (I've walked several miles on a broken little toe and the people I walked with didn't even all notice, & I've hurt my shoulder & finger bad enough to go to the emergency room but had to convince people to drive me 'cause I hadn't reacted at all when it happened, I was just like 'hm, maybe it'd be a good idea to get this seen to') but on the other hand, I can't stand the monthly cramps. Even if they're not heavy at all, I just don't wanna do anything but sit & be miserable. With emotional pain it also depends, I don't sweat small stuff, I'm almost impossible to offend and I laugh at people trying to bully me or make fun of me, but the one time I was really, really in love & he moved away, I cried for a week & was really upset for several weeks after.. never knew a person could cry that long (not just crying occasionally but crying non-stop).
I like Physical pain. Reminds me that I'm alive. I'm a pretty happy go lucky guy, I don't have much emotional pain. I'd vote emotional probably.
KJ loves Colenzo! KJ loves Colenzo! KJ loves Colenzo! KJ loves Colenzo! KJ loves Colenzo! He kinda grows on you after a while, doesn't he. Physical pain is nothing compared to emotional pain, but that doesn't mean that physical pain won't make me swear my head off and bring water to my eyes. It only means that I cannot endure the emotional kind as easily. Women have to give birth, so they need 9 times the pain tolerance. Men have 18 times as much testosterone as women, though, so they are much more likely to get themselves beat up for talking when they should be listening. Joan Rivers said having babies is like pulling your bottom lip over your forehead.
The only thing close to emotional pain I feel very often is annoyance. I feel Physical pain all the time.
After having children and dealing with monthly "issues" every few weeks I have to say this might be a correct statement. Men were built differently but it doesn't mean they are the weaker of the sexes. There has to be something a man goes through that a woman just can not understand. Emotional pain hurts more or at least it sure does linger a lot longer.
People who chew with their mouth open, or don't let me off an elevator before they force their way in, or give me the runaround rather than just tell me the truth... that is the kind of thing that annoys me. I cannot express how far that is from the worst emotional pains I have felt. Most of my life has been without much of it, but when it happens, it makes up for the long absence. Don't be too surprised if your streak ends with a really big bang.... It may sound nuts, but then I'm just superstitious that way.
Crippling emotional pain is a lot different from annoyance. annoyance happens to me all the time though, I don't have much emotional pain. I don't really see much in my life bringing me a lot of emotional pain either, but if its any consolation to you, people grow a lot during the toughest times.
Most of my life was very uneventful, no big peaks or valleys. then I had a huge peak....and then the valley. Do you have a calm, comfortable life with few peaks and valleys? I don't need to know, just wonderin'. No rain makes a desert. The best steel comes from the hottest fire. What goes up....
Thats pretty much it, I dunno if my lifes uneventful, but not many peaks or vallys either. I'm pretty content all the time these days. I guess more peaks and vallys would kinda spice things up, but I'm cool with where things are for right now.
actually though, im going to say physical, cause i deal with physical pain everyday, which therefore leads to emotional pain..
