definition of PAIN

i used to watch the series Kyle XY last time during my uni time. you know just to kill the boredom when you were left alone with monkeys jumping in excitement as the uni were all theirs when it came to mid semester break. now tell me how pathetic was i back then being left alone in the uni n staring at the laptop screen all day long. T_T!

oh ! back to the subject. definition of PAIN. do any of you knows the definition of PAIN ?

According to http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/pain,

Pain is an unpleasant feeling that is conveyed to the brain by sensory neurons.

Straight forward huh? but what if the brain defines PAIN differently ? I mean everyone has different set of brain. if we could give a scale to PAIN, everyone of us might produce different results. Agree ? if i pinch a guy, he might feel no PAIN, if i pinch another guy he might scream due to the unpleasant feeling, kan ? of course i would pinch with equal force.

so how do we actually define PAIN ? it all depends on the mind. it is a state of mind. well, according to Kyle of Kyle XY (i can't remember which season which epi, but i can remember the exact phrase he used yo !), to reduce the PAIN all you need to do is to control the mind. The phrase that he used was "mind over body". so whenever you feel pain, try to control your mind. chant something like "no PAIN, no PAIN, x sakit, x sakit" and see if it works. once your mind is over your body, you would eventually control the intensity of the pain.

why do i bother to share about this topic ? i have no idea too !

later peeps!
