How to get over emotional pain?

Question

Any tips or suggestions.

Answer 1

you must take a deep breath and go to sleep thinking in mind that the pain will soon disappear after sleeping.Don't forget to pray and give all your anxieties to the Lord.He will surely help you.He will never leave you nor forsake you.And tell it to a trusted friend. God bless!

Answer 2

Don't bother reading those comments about God being able to heal you. You can heal yourself. Some of it takes time, but a lot of it you can do yourself. Set goals for yourself that you might not have ever set before. Find some new hobbies, immerse yourself in things that you enjoy, spend time with friends and family constantly. Whenever you have a bad thought come to your mind, replace it with a happy one immediately. I have found that watching stand up comedy is a great thing. Since laughing is good for you, and it makes you feel good.

Answer 3

First of all don't be too reactive with anything in this world.  Be sportive and love yourself a lot standing and looking yourself in front of the mirror.

Answer 4

Take a good look at what might be causing your emotional pain.

Once you know, you can begin to take small steps to work through the pain.  You can choose how you want to manage the pain and what you need to do to resolve it.  If it is something you cannot resolve, you can choose how to live with the pain and take care of yourself the best way possible in your situation.  Good Luck.

Answer 5

Write about it...talk to someone about it. Try exercising...that releases stress and gets your mind off of whatever is hurting you. I don't recommend hurting yourself...i actually used to cut but all that got me was a few hospital trips and stupid medications. Good luck!

Answer 6

Answer 7

Do something you truely love, or find new hobbies.

Be around people who love you, and who you love as well.

Exercise.

Start eating right (quite distracting because you have to eat atleast three times a day!).

Write in a journal, draw, paint, etc.  

Talk to the person who's hurting you, or who has ever hurt you (takes a weight off your shoulders).

Apologize to people you've hurt, and start over.

Look in the mirror, find something good about yourself, be confident, and just start over.  Become the person you want to be.  

Answer 8

you fight the pain and pretend as if you like the pain. turn it around and make it a possative

Answer 9

     This is the time to throw yourself into something that will keep you very, very busy.  I actually recommend work-related activities as opposed to hobbies - there is more incentive to keep things moving when you're doing things for somebody else (even if it is your employer).  "Busy work" is also an option - there's no better time to sort out all those nuts and bolts you've been tossing into a single coffee can forever.

     Writing, painting, or other creative outlets are also beneficial.  If I'm writing, I can take a person who has caused me pain and turn them into a character in a story - that puts me back in control of them, and also in control of myself.

     The most important thing is to give yourself enough time to distance yourself a bit from the cause of the emotional hurt.  You'll never completely get over it, but it will become less important.
