Emotional Healing

Healing handsHello my fellow readers! I haven’t been making daily posts because I’ve been so busy, but one thing I’d like to talk about is something we all can relate to. Some of us relate to this subject on different levels, but we’ve all felt emotional pain.

Healing can be so painful sometimes. Healing physically or emotionally can take a while. It seems that healing emotionally can take longer than physical healing. A lot of people ignore their emotional wounds. How do we heal emotionally? How long does it take to heal from our emotional wounds? Do we ever fully heal from our past hurts and pains?

We all have baggage in the sense that we are all scarred from past hurts and pains. We hurt because we are trusting individuals. Some are more trusting than others. How do people deal with their emotional pain? Some people ignore it, but I don’t think that is a healthy way to deal with things. Ignoring the problem never solves anything. The problems only get worse.

The best way to deal with your emotional wounds is to confront the issue at hand. If you are being taken advantage of by someone, then you have to cut that person off. Stop helping the person that’s taking advantage of you. I know that it’s hard to stop helping someone you love, but you could be hindering them. Once we are dealing with our pain, then how long does it take to heal?

I guess it would depend on how badly you’ve been afflicted. Emotional healing is somewhat like physical healing. It all depends on how badly you’re hurt. If you have a broken arm or leg, then you take longer to heal then if someone scraped their knee. Healing can take days, weeks, months, and sometimes years. I think emotional healing depends on the person. Will you ever fully heal from the past hurts and pains?

Your physical body can fully heal, so why can’t your emotional body fully recover. When you hurt yourself physically, you go to the doctor, get a diagnosis, the doctor gives you directions on how to care for your wound, and then you check in with the doctor every so often to see how you are recovering.

Think of God as being your Doctor. When you get hurt emotionally, you ask “God why did this happen to me”? God doesn’t always answer back right away, but eventually you’ll understand that accidents happen. People don’t always intentionally hurt other people. When you trust another person, you risk getting hurt. When you decided to learn how to ride a bike, you risked falling down and scrapping your knee. Things just happen and we have to heal and move on. Let’s not cripple ourselves emotionally.
