Physical hurt

Annoying aches that stays

Increases in intensity

Never ending tension

Poor mentality

Anxiety filled muscles

Inner negative thoughts

Not moving out of bed

Which is worse, Physical or Mental pain?

    That's a deep and thoughtful reflection on pain. Both physical and mental pain can be incredibly challenging.

  • I'm not sure which is worse. They're both equally bad but in different ways. Loved your double Acrostic!

    Hang in there babygirl! Praying 4 u! 🙏🏾 Both can be equal terrors imo! Lol

    so true Emily, I have learned to live with pain, no escaping it, more physical than mental 🙆‍♀️🧐, I like this piece on it 😀😀

    A great question. I think mental pain can be worse...there are cures for physical bruises, etc, but mental anguish can sometimes be so difficult to deal with.

    This is not uplifting at all. Sorry you are feeling bad, and I hope you feel better. I don't know what else to say.
