You may think that hiding your pain from sight is somehow going to make it disappear. I can tell you from experience that it isn’t. It is just like the time as a kid when you really didn’t want to eat your greens. If you hid them underneath a piece of furniture, sooner or later your mum would discover them because all she had to do was follow the smell. Just like the broccoli, hidden issues begin to smell if they are not brought out into the open air. There is no escape. Corallie Buchanan
About This Quote

When we hide our pain from sight, it can become so overwhelming that we cannot concentrate on anything else. It is like a house with many rooms and we try to push the pain into a secret room and lock it away for good. The problem is that we can never completely hide our pain and we will always be aware of the burden that we carry. When we feel pain, we should be aware of its presence and seek help as soon as possible.
