well i am just thinking.. wondering. because sometimes i do, sometimes i do have some pain, hurt that i just keep inside. somehow i do tell you guys here what i have been going through but this one,i need to keep inside, not even one single soul knows about it. maybe somehow i'll bury it with me.. a friend told me to go and tell my husband, or a friend, or someone..but somehow i cannot.. maybe i will someday, but not now. just feeling lonely and sad today.

Expressing yourself to someone makes you comfortable and it also helps to decrease the pain inside you. One of the reason why some people have mental illness is because they just hide their feelings for their self and not for others. The pain is still there and they feel like nobody cares. If you have difficulty sharing it, slowly talk to them. You have friends and family who are always there to help you when you have problems. Don't hesitate to talk to them because they still know your sad by the way you talk to them.

I felt that one.It's when you want to share to someone to lighten the pain but you just can't; and instead choose to keep it by yourself. It's hard. Whatever you've been through this days, take time.I know it's hard to open it to somebody, but I believe it's in this situation where your husband could greatly help you. Always remember that if there is somebody who should know it, its your husband coz you are married, you are bonded as one flesh and soul.. I believe, if you tell it to your husband, it would surely be a relief. Good luck and God bless my fellow mylotter..

hi jazel__juan but thats really when two people who love each other can halve that hurt and soon it heals as two people share a painful thing and it cuts the pain in half.So do not bottle it all up inside for too long as it wi ll cause you so much pain and moodiness. share it with someone you really trust

Yes, it happens when we choose to keep it alone and we don't want to bother anyone about our feelings. I want to tell you something- it's not good actually. By the time I have decided to let go of my ex- I kept all the pain inside of me. I don't want to talk about it to anybody else, not even my mom. I show the world I am alright- yes, I didn't cry but slowly the pain is eating my whole life. The pain made me hard, not strong. The pain made me mean, not firm. The pain changed me totally that I myself finding it hard to search my own. I wake up one day asking "who I am" I am grateful to my family and friends who never left my side and help me find my way back to myself. Do not kept it for too long, it won't fade by time, but you are giving yourself a chance to fade right before your eyes.

hi, its really hard to keep the hurt inside of our heart because it will makes us depress and stress,that is why when i feel sad and really hurt by someone i will automatically cry to let the hurt out from my heart and it will lessen sadness and loneliness in our heart.

Talk! Let it out. It helps a lot if you express yourself verbally. It is not healthy to keep it to yourself. The tension, stress and the likes would push you emotionally and later physically to do something you might regret later.

Well, dear friend, if I am going to tell you to comfort you, to say that I am just like you did! Yes, in fact I'm keeping everything inside. Especially the pain. If someone does me wrong, I'm not quite able to repeat, I remain silent and accumulation inside of me a large lump in my throat. I know I should do something more, or, I should learn to fight back! But I tell you I just can not! I know, I understand you perfectly, it's very sad!

I sometimes keep the hurt inside because it's much better in certain situations. But it's not good for someone to keep and contain his emotions because we are human and we must express what we feel. I do believe though that everybody can control their emotions. They themselves have the choice to feel that way if they choose to feel that way.

I understand how you feel, there are some problems or things that we cant share to anyone and we choose to keep it inside our heart and bear the pain to protect others. I know it hard and hurt you so much but if youre not ready to share it then keep it to yourself for now and pray. I think through praying you will lessen your pain, loneliness and sadness.

You should let it out, speak up your mind, shout it out, open it up to anyone. It's not really necessary that you have to share it to someone you know. You could share it to a stranger, I think it is sometimes easier that way. It's really not good to keep emotions all by yourself, especially pain. It's not healthy and I'm sure you know that. Anyway, just pray for it. Talk to God. He's 24/7 online. ;-)
