Discussion Mental Pain Level

[ms_beaverhousen]

Truthfully,
for the past 2 years, what has been your average daily Mental Pain Level???

Take a minute to think about it... rather than jumping and voting on how feel now. Your mental pain can come from anything, anywhere, or anyone etc. Pain stemming or brought on by emotions including, but not limited to, ones such of sadness, despair, anguish, sorrow, apathy, loss, grief, guilt, shame, fear, emptiness, loneliness, longing, hopelessness, helplessness, stress, frustration, irritation, hatred, depression, a anxiousness, nervousness, defeat, etc.
Again, your mental pain on an average daily basis.

A two year average is difficult for me to measure. Over the past two years a lot has happened in my life. I had periods of being genuinely okay with life. I've also had periods of 10/10 mental anguish for weeks at a time. And then the days in between. I put a 6. Nowadays I average around a 7 or 8, but for awhile over the last two years I was averaging much lower. A lot can happen in two years.

Okay well I fucked up and voted before reading :/

I put 10 because that's how I have been feeling the past few days but I guess for the past few years I would say 7-8/10.

That was kind of the point. It's not meant to say someone cant be at a 10 now because they were at a 4 for the first year. I was just curious about the general consensus. I almost chose just the past year but in terms of wanting death, I put two. It's just a mesh of good and bad to hash a number, doesnt mean that's where you are now. Then was then, and now is now.

Lol Im sorry, I'll see if I can fix it. I didnt know when I made it that my descriptive question would come AFTER the poll. Another Moderator adjustment.

Ok I thinkk I changed it? If you even wanted to change it. Now others can. I should've put the number in reverse too. I'm tired, hungry, with blurry vision so I fucked up too lol :/

About an 8

Last year was 10/10 and this year just sucks at 0/10 so I guess I'm just a 5 over two years.

I feel like for most it should be 7 or 8. Enough pain to be here but not enough to take the next step, it can still be worse after all. Most 9-10s are probably not around anymore

I put a 9 only because there probably should be room for things to get worse as unbelievable as that may be. It's bad it's really bad. I wish for the pain to stop.

When I was in college I had the left side of my face blown off in a freak explosion severing muscles and etc... When I went to eat for the first week the pain would build. The first time I ate until the pain was enough to where I went let's stop expecting the pain to decrease. Instead it kept building and building and building. Writing what I knew on pain. Where you begin to wonder if it will ever stop. Second time I stopped well ahead of that didn't help same thing. etc... For me this is permanently in that build section. No sign of the pain decreasing or being alleviated any time soon. I just want it to stop as soon as possible. I don't care if it is my life being reclaimed, I don't care if it is death, I don't care if it is something else. I just want it to fucking stop.

Definitely 10. Due to my autism, I have a lower stress and pain threshold. I get hurt and stressed way too easily. Because of this, I'm always stressed about life which in turn gives me anhedonia and the fact that I don't have any way to cope makes my mental pain far worse. I get migraines for most of my days due to the mental pain that I deal with. I believe that many people would be suicidal if they had the mental pain that I do.

I feel like for most it should be 7 or 8. Enough pain to be here but not enough to take the next step, it can still be worse after all. Most 9-10s are probably not around anymore

What if we're in so much mental pain to where it makes it difficult to kill ourselves? I feel like I'm like that. My lower stress threshold applies to suicide as well, not just towards life

Interesting question. About a year ago, a littlel over a year ago it was 100% but in recent months and in this year in general it's pretty low as things that causes me MH issues calmed down. Even be fore my crash last year the avg. level wasn't to high.

A good avg. level I would say is 50 for me (50-60).
