Real pain isn't physical.
It's not something that band aids and painkillers can fix.
Real pain is hating yourself for being weak.
Real pain is crying yourself to sleep almost every night.
Real pain is that ache in your heart that never goes away.
Real pain is hating what you see when you look in the mirror.
Real pain is crying over every single thing wrong with you.
Real pain is when others think that you're the strong one when really you're the weakest person you know.
That is real pain.
