They say “pain insists on being felt” but I’ve learned to tame and suppress it… When pain comes my way whether it be physical or emotional I do not allow it to be felt. I breathe through it and ignore it. I guess I’m wishing it will go away since I pretend it doesn’t exist.

I so know what you mean. For years I have swallowed emotions and pain, not allowing myself to feel it. I call it self-preservation. I know it’s not healthy though – for me it all builds up and can lead to rage. My thoughts are with you!

I internalize my pain then it affects me physically…. There are days I have to force myself to get out of bed. Force myself to go to work …etc… I guess they call internalized pain “depression “. Yep! I accept that label
