Pain makes people who they are.

David Arnold
About This Quote

Pain makes people who they are. When people experience pain, they react in ways that help them cope with their pain. When someone undergoes physical or emotional pain, they often feel stressed and depressed. That’s because when we experience pain, we may feel overwhelmed by it.

We may not know where to go from there. As a result, we can feel helpless and powerless and experience difficulty in coping with the pain. On the other hand, when we experience physical or emotional pain, we can respond in ways that help us cope with the pain.

For example, we might take a hot bath or drink some coffee to try to distract ourselves from our feelings or maybe we speak with a friend or family member to express our feelings and make sense of them.
