I took a nap and woke up with blurry vision, probably from getting Lysol spray or some shit in my eyes cleaning my dorm room. I had an eye inflammation flare up from a pre-existing condition, but as a rule of caution eye doctors treat sudden vision changes as a possible infection, which will leave you blind if left untreated. With numbing drops (not real anesthesia, DROPS) they stuck two needles in my eye - one for the antibiotic and one to draw a culture. It's difficult to describe because the pain level wasn't super high (I've got a pretty high threshhold anyways) but it was the sharpest pain I've ever felt and I was paranoid about moving my eye while the needles were in. Then I needed to do anti-biotic eye drops over the next week which stung like a bitch every time, because of the holes...
AHHHHHHHHGGGG, FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
When I was a kid I had this huge fear of getting a needle in my eye. I can remember my mother assuring me that this was not something that would ever happen. But apparently it does, holy shit. And not for something especially exotic, just some sort of eye infection? Christ, I thought this was the 21st century. I can get my dinner cooked in 5 minutes, up to date info on the population of a small province in India in seconds, my teeth all pulled and organs removed without the slightest pain, WHY ARE WE STILL PUTTING NEEDLES IN EYEBALLS THIS IS FUCKING BARBARIC

When my old girlfriend broke up with me. Did you feel physical pain? I can't imagine feeling physical pain as a result of emotional pain only. I can see how they could exacerbate each other. If you boil it down, physical pain and 'emotional' pain are the same. Both are neurons firing in a certain way that makes you feel uncomfortable. Usually when people describe physical vs emotional pain, the difference is the location and the cause. Location - physical pain can be pretty much anywhere, while emotional pain makes your mind hurt. The difference between physical and emotional pain is blurred - when I feel great emotional pain, my head feels like it hurts (and looking at it biologically, it does). The cause is the bigger difference - we all know how physical pain is caused; emotional pain comes from your own interpretation. But that interpretation, which stems from your mind, can indeed cause a physical pain. Well, because your interpretation, your consciousness which created that interpretation, comes from a 'physical' source - neurons firing. tl;dr - hard to define physical vs emotional pain, but yes, your mind's interpretation of something can cause physical pain
Mental pain can cause physical illness, including shaking and vomiting :O Most of us first get to know that when a loved one is in danger and we can't do anything about it :X

Umm having lots of tattoos or any at all...is a failry bad example to set for your kids. I would think that this is obvious.

I never thought of things like how employeres look at this, how i would not be allowed into every branch of the military except the army. Yes ive spoken with them all in person so dont say this is bs. Only the army at the moment is leniant as far as tattoos go. Also the way the public views you...i get dirty looks for no reason just because of my tattoos..more than you would think.
Also, i was just like you. I assumed getting one on your bicep or back would be just fine. Not true. Obviously people and employers will see it on your bicep. Something like 80% of people with tattoos regret them. Obviously im one of them.
edit: All of my tattoos have meaning to me. Thats not what i ment. I ment in 20 years no matter what every tattoos is going to look smudges and faded no matter who you get it done from. In 30 years in gona be a blob of ink lol. and i dont have tattoos on my hands or face. I still regret them all. And almost all of them are holding me back in a negative way. Even the ones I think are "hidden"

Probably accidentally sewing through my finger with an industrial-grade sewing machine and then having to pull out the thread through the bleeding holes. Being a little kid at the time, it was a pretty shocking experience, good thing i decided not to pull my finger out when the needle was all the way down.

When I was young I had a weird boil on my ass cheek (no joke) and then we went to the hospital to get rid of it, and being the man I was i asked for no anesthetic, and they just cut up my ass cheek straight up and removed the boil. (This was when I was 9)

Something about what I know you must have googled to find this site makes me not inclined to believe anything you say.

huh? i didnt google anything. I know a thing or 2 about tattoos. I have 18, i did my final research paper in college on them, im in a tattoo removal program and attend their sessions, and I know dozens of people with them from several generations and backgrounds.
edit: There is a reason ALMOST everyone that gets tattoos ends up regretting them later in life. Its too hard to explain to people that dont have them or havent had them long enough. Before I got them i thought the same things as everyone else in this thread. I was only trying to help as i have had experience. Sorry. Live and learn I guess.

2nd worst pain I've had was a cytoscopy. Worst pain was peeing after the cytoscopy.

While there were some weird issues with family and relatives going on, I'd just gotten off the phone with my mom who'd told me some bad news concerning the situation.
I was very angry, and punched a metal railing like eight times in a row...that hurt like a bitch since I tore skin too.
I couldn't play SC well for several days after...T_T.
I don't know if that's the most painful thing...I can't really separate pain from terror in my memories, so can't make a judgment as to whether something was truly painful or not, or if I was just scared.

Now that I think of it, the really "traumatic" moments in my life where the greatest injury was dealt (falling 8 feet onto pavement chin-first, smashing my head into the corner of a wall, getting a huge gash in it) weren't really that painful. I guess you tend to go into a sort of shock and feel significantly less pain.
In ascending order:
3. Snowboard wipeout: I tried to slow down too quickly, did a flip and landed on my back on ice. Just an overwhelming full-body soreness for a minute.
2. Foot Cramps: No, seriously. Really fucking painful, like someone is tearing my muscles out.
1. Toonie Extraction: Long story short, I did some stupid things as a kid, one of which being I smashed out the centre of a toonie (canadian coin worth two dollars, made of two seperate metals, one composing the core and the other a ring around it) and put the outer ring on my finger. It won't come off, I'm sent to the hospital. Rather than cut it off and burn my finger, the doctor suggests another method which involves him somehow leveraging it off using a small string wrapped around my finger. It must have been due in part to how swollen and sensitive the finger was, but this seemingly benign process was VERY, VERY painful. The sharpest pain imaginable, sustained for several minutes while the ring was slowly dislodged.

I was young.
I was on a bike.
I was in a race.
I tried to take a shortcut.
I hit the curb.
Landed on my face (stopped my face from hitting the ground with my hands).
Bike landed on my head.
BLOODY HEAD!!!
I had to get stichees in my head and I remember saying "I'm okay, I don't want to go to the hospital". :D

haha yeah, the worst pain I can remember feeling is maybe some of the cramps I have had in the middle of the night.
I really don't feel much pain, though. Pain doesn't matter if you don't run from the sensation.

Same with me. I guess that was my worst emotional pain. You can still feel it, physically, in the pit of your stomach.
Physical... I'm not quite sure. Probably when we spun around one of those mini carousel things, they have them in some kid parks. We spun it so fast and I've never felt more shittier in my life.
