I am wondering, because I saw this phenomenon mentioned here.
It never crossed my mind that I have a "high pain threshold" until my daughter said (a couple decades ago) that she thought this of me. I have thought of this since, but today, I saw two different persons write this of themselves. One gave a bit of a reason for this that was interesting to me.
I am wondering if this is directly related to abuse. What do you think? What have you seen evidenced?
The reasons I probably have a high pain threshold:
* Child birth, for me, was easy, painless, only pressure. Actually, I had enough fun giving birth that I considered doing it again after two.
* I have a serious illness that causes others a lot of pain, but I just don't seem to have all the pain others with this illness have. (I am on a forum for those who have it, and their pain is incredible and nearly constant. Mine is not.)
* I have sciatica, but it is obvious to me that I just don't hurt as do others with sciatica.
* I have back pain, but I often don't notice it until someone touches my back or I lean my back against something.
So what are you thinking regarding what you know?
