Discussion Worst pain in your life. Was it physical or psychical?

[Alex Fermentopathy]

Psychical does not necessarily mean psychological. It can also be psychoorganic (as in my case).

Psychical, clearly. I've been lucky enough not to suffer physically. But it's about time.

Definitely psychological. Maybe I am lucky enough to not have had any more than a few broken bones, tooth infection, and body mods as my greatest pain experiences, but I have never had a physical pain experience that was something that made me want to CTB.

Spoiler: TMI

I guess IBS is really painful too hahahah

I'm actually not sure. I have had some pretty intense (for me) physical pain and some pretty intense recurring pain in my life although I've never wanted to ctb from it. But I also don't consider my psychological problems "pain". Even psychologically, to me "pain" has to do with some sort of injury or damage whereas, for me, I think my depression is just more of a profound sadness. It's not like something is "broken" or even not working correctly. It's more like this is a state that I am in. That doesn't really make sense but honestly this question has me a bit baffled.

Going to have to chew on this for a bit. Well done @Alex Fermentopathy !

Psychical, for sure. A lot of trauma on top of autistic spectrum...

 

[TheGoodGuy]

Psychological for sure, not even a contest.

The worst pain in my life was when my friends took their own lives
