Oh hell, TJN...most of my lovers look like that after a "nooner"...

I broke my tibia doing a jump skinning hook kick sparing in my early 20's.. I drove myself home then to the doctor later that night when my leg swelled up to twice the size of the other one...



I hate emotional pain but I can disconnect it if I have too... I think it's much harder to do then with physical pain though... Especially when it comes to kids and loved ones..

Promises promises

Hell, i'm about to crack with the emotional pain at times. Much rather deal with the physical pain right now at least.

Physical pain? No problems....


Emotional pain? It depends....most of it is laughable...

The one vulnerability I have with any pain, is my children...emotional pain is traumatising, through my children...their pain does me in...

Be it either physical or emotional pain my children experience, and I am a train wreck....afterwards.

i have a genetic syndrome that makes every day of my life a study in pain. you learn to...shut it off, kind of. push it to the back of your mind. i feel the pain, just long enough for me to take stock of what's in most need of rest or repair, and then i shut it out. period.

i've had a few hard knocks over the years, and i've been accused of being...slightly cold emotionally. *shrugs* i'm not very emotional, unless i'm watching a television show, heh. grey's anatomy gets me every time.

i'm good in a crisis. it's after everything is over that i allow myself to feel pain of ANY kind.

*disclaimer* i feel very strongly when the pain is in regards to my children. somehow, their knocks and bruises are FAR more painful to me than anything should ever be allowed to be...

Once you survive the loss of a child there are not many pains you can not endure; physically or emotionally. There does seem to be more you won't put up with and just avoid or put a stop to real fast.
