“To see someone you love in so much pain—especially emotional pain that can’t be remedied—was the worst form of torture.”

“...Loving someone so much and knowing you can’t be with them was cripplingly painful.”

“I’d have much rather gotten dragged into someone else’s fight than face what was waiting for me. Other people’s emotional pain, no matter how painful, is so much less painful than your own.”

“It’s not only about sadness. In truth, sadness really has little to do with it. Depression is pain in its purest form and I would do anything to be able to feel an emotion again. Any emotion at all. Pain hurts, but pain that’s so powerful that you can’t feel anything anymore, that’s when you start to feel like you’re going crazy.”

“When you can't find a remedy for your pain, you look for someone to blame.”

“It is painful to see someone suffering what you must be suffering- watching someone you love be so cruelly hurt.”
