Have you ever missed someone so much that it hurts physically?

[Miss_Behave]

That's how I'm feeling right now, and although it might sound very dramatic to some, I feel like a choked up kinda feeling and my chest feels so heavy :'(

Yes

No

[SilentShadow]

Yes, but I don't know if I "miss" them. I miss the happiness from when I was a child, but I don't miss those people that allowed it in particular. I miss playing barefoot in the luscious grass at my father's house, exploring the woods, playing with my puppy, and holding all of my possessions. I do not, however, miss my dad or his bitter mother.

Sometimes we all cry so much that it hurts deep within us. Your heart, head, and chest begins to hurt. Sometimes you can't even stand because you feel too weak from sadness, and sometimes you can't get out of bed because there is nothing you look forward to doing. It happens. Eventually, though, all of that goes away. I stopped feeling anything last month. No pain, no tears, and no sorrow.

On the 11th, I had the first POSITIVE dream about my father in my lifetime. Instead of dreaming of him trying to kill me due to a demonic possession, or him walking away from me and completely shutting me out of his life, I dreamed that we were happy. We had a conversation and were laughing together. That, I think, is the closure I needed to stopped feeling pain over the loss of my childhood.

I can assure you that the pain will not last forever.

[Miss_Behave]

I'm sorry you had to go through all that. Thank you for sharing with me.

That second paragraph you wrote is exactly what I meant when I said that it hurts physically :'(

[kittycat119]

Yeah, it kept feeling like a wave kept hitting me in the head and I kept going under and could never catch my breath. And I felt like I was suffocating. I still feel like that even now the wave is still there

[kittycat119]

Hopefully it goes away soon

[Miss_Behave]

I"m sorry :(
For me, it's as if I have a very heavy and painful chest, and sometimes I feel like it's hard to breathe. It's made me sigh a lot :'(

[kittycat119]

I just have that stupid wave knocking into my head and suffocating me. It's the worse feeling I've ever felt and I don't think it'll get better because I don't think he'll be able to come back this time

[peachblossomluck]

Like you want to curl in a ball? Yes, I think that's where the "broken heart" euphemism came from. It actually does feel like your heart is breaking.

[Miss_Behave]

Exactly!

[Katerina_Belle]

Yes and the pain is soo bad, I fall asleep crying.

Honestly, just it out, you will feel better :) tc x

[Miss_Behave]

Yep, I do cry myself to sleep sometimes :( but sometimes, I get that choked up feeling where I just can't cry it out... If you know what I mean.
And then sometimes I get very vivid dreams that are happy, only to wake up and realize they weren't real and then feel sooo let down :/

[Katerina_Belle]

I don't want to pry so I won't ask what happened.

But if it's recent then give it a month or two, slowly you will find a way to cope with it. Sometimes you just need to cry so much that you have no tears left, and then you can start anew :)

And whatever it is, don't dwell on it further. Understand and accept what has happened, and then that's it. Don't of the whys or hows etc there's no point. And the sooner you train your mind to leave it that, the quicker you will heal and move forward.

Absolutley... I remember feeling this weird sensation of like a cloud hovering overtop causing like a metal block and I couldnt think straight for the longest time. I've had a few days of panic attacks caused by literaly missing the person. Unfortinate situation where I had a close friend decide to leave her past behind and move in life. I was vulnerable as I move to a new city and had nobody else for support as we recconected from a past short period together.

[Stellabethea]

Yes I'm hurting so bad right now because my boyfriend and I have broken up for a week now but I know everything is going to be okay. With my situation and yours as well.

[Miss_Behave]

I'm sorry you're hurting so much as well :'(
I hope you feel better soon too.

[SmandyCandy]

And then I got over him.
That's not just missing though. You're either in love or falling in love.

[Miss_Behave]

Yea, for me, I'm missing him so much cos I'm in love with him but he doesn't know. I've been wanting to tell him how I feel since early this year (when I realized I've fallen for him) but I chicken out every single time :(

[SmandyCandy]

Don't feel bad I wait too lol

[alice55]

Yes i have it's pretty stupid but I was with my grandparent for 3 week and I missed so much my parents, my sister like I was alway sad. I was young and not use to be without my parent.

[HopelesslyInLove17]

For the past 8 months that's all I've been able to feel :( if you ever wanna talk, I'm here

[Winter_Storm_Guy]

Yeah, i know your feeling it sucks like hell to lose someone either a break up or someone died , yes the physical pain is horrible and emotional pain sets in and stress causes anxiety, depression.

[capturemyheartnow]

I have mu thoughts about missing people but they don't hurt me to such a great extent like how you described above.

[FatherJack]

I'm very " detached " as people go , so not in general. Only when it's a permanent loss , when they pass away !!

[HappierThanYou]

Yes, but not since i was about 14. Not an insult, just being honest. I'm not very erm clingy.

[IceCubedude]

then i realised, it wasn't worth it and it never will be

[Anonymous]

Yes I felt that way after my close friend left for college.
I felt it but much less when my crush was absent for a few weeks.

[KellyMB]

Yeah. Like someone sitting on your chest.

[Miss_Behave]

Yep, exactly!

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

How is that possible?

[Miss_Behave]

Well, its kinda like when you feel hurt or heartbroken... That kinda emotional pain that's so immense that it feels physical. I don't know how to describe it in words but you'd know it if you've experienced it.

[Other_Tommy_Wiseau]

I mean depression and anxiety can cause physical reactions, but it's not like it can break your arm, cause a leg cramp or make you have a stomach ache

[LaFemmeFatale]

Nah and I doubt that It is even possible.

[JoyGirl]

Yes, but that was year and a half ago. ㅠ. ㅠ

[4465loveyou5577]

I'm starting to exist my bis sis :(

[Petr1992]

when my dog died :/

[Miss_Behave]

I'm sorry :( I have a dog too and I love her to bits so I can imagine the pain and how devastating that mustve been.

[Petr1992]

dog was 19 years old, oh yeah i cried like a lot, like a lot a lot, i grew up with ellie

[ProbablyTooMature]

Yup, that'll for sure do it. Sorry dude. =\

[Petr1992]
