..it can be physical or mental.

Heather	physical: when i got several warts burned off on my fingers, it hurt so bad bc it was my nerve endings were. mental: going through death experience or a breakup

Ylang-Ylang	Child Birth - it was dreadful and I did it 3 times.

baby_face_paris	Childbirth.

miss_rage1986	This is not my experience, this is what happened to my fiance when he was a teenager... The idiot climbed up one of those telephone poles in the street, he slid back down without realising there was a nail sticking out...... his ball sack was ripped open.... was left to crawl all the way home leaving trails of blood.... rushed to hospital to have a nurse stitch it all up. OUCH!

brakiss	when my wife was in labour!!!! Her nails dug in my arm and I swear they reached the bone plus she constantly reminds me and I have been paying for it ever since!

peter o	pancreastitis.its one of the worse pains you can get.

QueenBee	Physical - Sciatica, after a day working at the stable yard I'd got home and sat down for a little bit. After getting up my back locked with a hot shooting pain down my leg. I couldn't put weight on it or move, so my dad got me a large umbrella to lean on until I could move from my one-legged stance in the middle of the room. Mental - I have a hormone deficiency which promotes strong mood swings and I have very dark thoughts from time to time about people around me dying. So far, I'd say most of my mental traumas have actually been self induced and imagined, to the point of me collapsing in floods of tears as though it were true. My worst real one I don't want to talk about.

Mr Chops	My mate once sent me a photo of Cherie Blair in the mail,,I haven't been the same since,,I'm still having nightmares

BIGMAC1976	Toothache caused by an abcess growing on the root. it started hurting on a saturday night and i couldn't find an emergency dentist surgery open anywhere, so i had to wait until 10 am on the monday... no sleep for 2 nights with constant pain. by the sunday evening, i was on my knees banging my head on the sofa to try and take my mind off the pain.....strange thing to do but when you're in as much agonising pain as i was, you'll do anything to try and stop it hurting.

Jenn	back pains and being stabbed

12pleze	When I had 3 lowest discs removed and cadaver bone used with titanium rods up my back. I took 300Mcg's of Duragesic, 10-12 30mg Roxicodone, 5 Actiq 1200Mcg's and still in worst pain. This was prescribed by one of the best known Dr.'s in USA with consultation with my surgeon. They added Valium and Halcion to sleep which did help but.... I have a very high tolerance to anything. This day of meds would kill most people. Be careful.

Lizzie G	Physical - frozen shoulder Mental - losing my baby grandson aged 36 hours

S P	my cartilage piercing because the cartilage shattered. I have had about 50 surgeries and that pain I felt after that piercing was unbearable.

Lightning	Physically, appendicitis when it was very inflamed and on the cusp of bursting. Mentally, my heart breaking when a relationship ending. Nothing compares to that terrible emptiness. I'd choose the appendicitis every time....

JanJan	dislocating my knee and having the doctor trying to shove it back without giving me any pain relief. I think he thought that because I was drunk I didn't need any

alittleminx01	gallbladder pain for physical as that hurt more than having any of my 3 kids losing my nan for mental

CJ	Tearing the ligaments in my left leg that hold the bones together. Needless to say I couldn't walk anymore

starlet108	Physical was when I broke my neck in a car accident - I didnt feel anything at first ntil I tried to stand up. Emotionally it was when my lovely mum died - I still feel pain now about losing her xxx

The Rugby Player	Loss of my father when I was still young

MADDY	Without a doubt this has to be Trigamenial nuralgia, I wanted to die just so the pain would stop, even the thought that it may return reduce's me to tears, this pain could not be stopped, even with high dose's of Morphine.

ciara	Stretching my f***y from ear to ear during child birth was pretty painful

Anonymous™ ©2008 !!	sciatica? I have had children but sciatica was worse!!

Hedge Witch	Ovarian cyst bursting and frozen shoulder being jolted. Both caused me to black for a second or two and I actually saw stars with the frozen shoulder!

JESSIEBLUE	for me ,it was gall stones , had to wait 6 months for the removal due to waiting for heart surgery,, that was agony, sooner give birth any day , alls well now though

ADRIAN H	Heart attack. There are only three words that come into your mind when going through an attack, "please shoot me".

♥Shortstuff ♥	My worse mental pain was the loss of my 15 y/o son. One day he was here & the next day, he was gone. What a difference a day makes. We never know about tomorrow, so live each day as though it was your last. My worse physical pain was when I went through childbirth, three times.

Dory	Physical.... falling down stairs and fracturing my coccyx, after the excruciating pain I went numb from the waist down, the pain returned after a few hours. I still suffer 6 years on. Mental...... When my son died at five months old.
