Would you rather feel physical pain, or emotional/mental pain? I would rather feel physical pain any day....any day. Physcial pain can hurt really really bad for the longest time, but once it's gone, it's gone and you can't really bring back the pain. But when it's emotional, it never goes away. It can be brought back any time with just the the thought of it. I never really understood how something could hurt you if you weren't brusied or bleeding, but I get it now. What do you guys say?

I would much rather physical pain. Emotional pain is way harder to deal with.

i would rather have no pain.... but yes, its only physical pain that we can happily bear , i mean rather than emotional.. Sometimes we donot even get hurt or worry about physical pain, in some strong situations!!!

some emotional pain causes physical pain....like depression. So if thats the case I would rather have neither. Long lasting physical pain... is just as bad as long lasting emotional pain. I would rather has short physical and short emotional pain.

I am totally with you on that one! I have a high tolerance for physical pain and there are so many pain relivers out there to help. Pop some Mortin and wait for it to help. Or go to the doctor and get the strong stuff. But emotional pain...there is no pill for that! And I know exactly what you mean with one thought and you feel it again. Say there is a name or a place that triggers those memories that is not far from your house...now you are reminded on a constant basis. I would take the physical pain anyday over the emotional pain!!!!
