Narrative Essay About Pain

Improved Essays
I have experienced multiple types of pain in my life. Most of it emotionally but some physically as well. The pains I felt in my life to me are more than just pain, to me they offer experience in life as well as shape you into the person that you. I’m not talking about scraping your knee or getting yelled at either, but rather unexperienced or intense pain that you learn from.
The type of pain if felt from the 1st grade was a very emotional pain and new pain. It was the first time I had lied to my parents about grades. School work really meant a lot to them when I was young, and I had gotten a very low grade on one of my tests at school. I was very good when it came to school at my young age so seeing the score brought shivers down my spine. I was thinking what I could do, and eventually the idea of lying came to my head. My parents usually ask about if I got any new grades so when they asked I didn’t tell them about my test, which is basically lying. The week rolled around so I forgot about the open house event

It happened when I was on a bus ride home from school in the 5th grade. I was with a “friend” on the bus and I let him borrow my PSP on the trip home. When I got home he handed it back to me (or so I thought) and I got off the bus and went inside my house. It wasn’t till next morning I noticed that my PSP had a cracked screen and different wallpaper. Apparently he switched my newer PSP with a cracked and older one. I went to confront him but he said he didn’t have it. My parents called the cops and his parents. I got my PSP back eventually, but I also thought about beating him up the next day because I was so angry that he lied to me and it was a huge lie at that. We were never friends again after that experience. I have always been a little less trusting after that, but it might have been for the better in the long run seeing how it taught me to not be too

    Pain The announcement made by Diane Ackerman "Having the capacity to withstand pain depends intensely on culture and convention," implies that the pain that individuals feel might be essentially in the mind as a result of the way they were instructed and it That you have seen and heard in your next. Individuals truly don't know anything distinctive other than their societies and conventions. Diane Ackerman's gives different cases to exhibit this announcement, however I will just share two. The principal case she gives is the point at which she utilizes the mother to have kids.

    During my time in clinicals on a pediatric floor, I have participated in the discharge of patients and their parents. Pain management and comfort were two of the few topics that parents expressed concern about after discharge teaching. While the nurse attempted to address these issues, it felt as though the parents left the hospital without full confidence in how to manage their child’s pain. It became clear that parents needed further, specific discharge education on pain management when their children were prescribed at-home analgesics.…

    All of these types of pain are damaging to the body. Physical pain can generally be relieved by medication or alleviating the source of pain. Mental pain is more difficult to cure because it usually requires help from another person to get through it. For some people to overcome their pain, it could take years. Psychogenic pain is the worst, perhaps, because it is a constant, vicious cycle.…

    Grief has been both my downfall and my saving grace. No one knows how to grieve properly or correctly, but the one thing I learned from grieving at a very young age, is that grief is love; specifically, unconditional love. This unconditional love towards someone (or in my case, many people) pours out as a sign of loneliness and yearning just to hold them and hug them one final time. I understand that losing people is a part of life and can’t be avoided, but growing up, I thought my world had turned upside down when I lost the two most important people to me. Three weeks prior to my tenth birthday, my Nana passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease.…

    The one thing I remember vividly from my childhood are the holes. During what was supposed to be a safe and restful naptime I dug into the wall with my tiny bare index finger. Over some unknown time period, those mysterious diggings developed into a fair likeness of the solar system. The trauma that any individual deals with, whether it is during childhood or adulthood, can turn out to be life-altering, specifically, when it hides far inside of the subconscious mind for many years. How does anyone climb out of that hole?…
