Hmm! That is an unusual prompt.
I don’t think I have ever written openly about pain on this blog! I have made
the odd references to it on and off but more or less, I try avoiding and
speaking about it. Exactly the same kind of thing when I am going through it as
well.
The one thing I do when I am
going through physical pain (and that used to be a lot considering how clumsy I
was!), I turn into a weepy sort especially when I am talking to the folks back
home! :P You know, missing home and such :) I get all teared up when I am
speaking to Amma or Appa when I am physically sick! At that point, all I really
want to do, is just curl up near them and have them soothe and cuddle me.
As for the emotional pain, it’s
a whole other gamut. Usually I end up thinking about it so much, make up
imaginary scenarios in my head, give myself a migraine and end up heading to
sleep. If it’s not too much of an emotional upheaval, I try distract myself and
read myself to sleep. Either ways, sleep is a constant. I always believe that
sleeping it off helps to alleviate all pain.
There have been times, when I have
been so down and out physically, that I have had to have friends doing
everything for me. I am truly blessed that way to have friends like family. However,
when I torment myself emotionally, I usually try and have my space. I don’t really
like talking about pain. I avoid it, I distract myself.
And now let’s move onto some happier
things please!! Shall we? :)
