When you are hurting inside.....?

Question

Do you share your pain with someone or do you bottle it all up inside?

I Don't ever show any emotion when my feeling have been hurt. I know it is not healthy but I refuse to let anyone know how much it effected me. Sometimes I feel like an ice princess.

Answer 1

I never do either ...do you want to meet and have a good cry together?

Answer 2

I think I do both. Mostly, if something is really bothering me I talk to my boyfriend about it. But sometimes I just want to be alone. You should show emotion sometime whether in front of someone or when you are by yourself. I think you hold a lot back because you are trying to be strong, or because you are worried what others will think about you. There is nothing wrong with showing emotion. It is very healthy. You should start volunteering somewhere. It will teach you about humility and give you are chance to express yourself in a positive way.

Answer 3

Well, first things first, you have to ask a doctor and figure out why it hurts in the first place. I wouldnt recommend applying anything right away if you dont know what the exact cause is, but for a dry nose you could try a saline solution. Mix of 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized table salt and 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda (optional) per 1 cup (8 ounces) of water.

Answer 4

Some people find it better if they tell their pain to someone else. We can help ourselves by bringing our feelings out in the open. Catharsis surely helps us get over with negative feelings quicker than when we bottle them up.

But it still depends on your coping skills. If you were wired and reared up not to tell anyone about your problem, then that's fine. Every individual has his or her own unique way of dealing with emotional situations.

Answer 5

It depends. I usually keep most emotions to myself, but there are a few people I can share things with.

I think I do it simply because I don't like people knowing my business. I'm really private, and revealing emotions would just show too much of myself.

I know it's not good. I mean, I should want people to know who I really am. Maybe someday...

Answer 6

yeah I'm the same way. If I get hurt, I just try to ignore it and go on in my normal day. It really isn't healthy but why bother people with my petty problems. When I have big problems though it gets tough. Because I know that I shoul tell someone but I'm used to not telling anyone...

Answer 7

talking about it or not doesnt really solve the problem that causes you to hurt. Theres a theory. Life is nothing but reality to be experienced. so instead of fearing to hurt, turn to be curious about it. get it down to the reality of it until you will gain an inner understanding. Its the only way your miseries will go away is stop running from it. Indulge and the wisdom is overwhelming. It is Godlike. stop living to be rigid. be soft and flexible and understanding. Understanding is the theory to everything. understanding is loving. if you can love everything like god, nothing can hurt you. Power is nothing but love.

Answer 8

I think it's normal to keep things bottled up so that no one can see your already injured side, however, if your blessed with a friend or lover who won't take advantage of you when your down, it is best to share your hurt, so that they can help you feel better!!!!

Answer 9

I try to share it with my bf but there are some things I have found out that I am keeping bottled up inside.....Very odd way that I found out something but still nervous about confronting him......

Answer 10

Bottle it up inside because I have no one to share it with.

Answer 11

i try to leave it move on to other things which distract my feelings and memories from a recent horrible event.i try to bottle it up.but this can be dangerous when it builds up to much ,and then there is a massive explosion.and sharing does not really work neither.so i do something in,between.
