For others, it happens only after you have had time to resolve your emotional and psychological pain. It is important to get support if you do not understand how emotional and psychological pain affects you. It is the human understanding that you receive from the person who is giving it that helps the healing. It takes the presence of another human to experience the caring, empathy, insight and confidence to deal with your feelings. Too often, it isn't until you are in an emotionally painful situation that you notice your feelings.
Painful feelings are very intense and often shaming.
Feelings related to emotional and psychological pain hurt. Internal pain can not be seen, only felt. Feelings affect your mood, behavior, attitude, physical health, motivation and confidence. Finding a safe place and safe people with whom to express your pain is imperative for heating and letting go - We often are conditioned not to let go. Letting go means letting go of the anger, sadness, resentment, disappointment, fears, guilt and shame that come with ending a marriage, and then finding the strength and courage to go on with your life.
