In my family my mom and sister cannot stand anything, whereas my dad and I have pretty high tolerances and aren’t fussy about anything. How does this work?
In: Biology
Dunno about the actual reason, but I “artificially” inflate my pain tolerance by focusing on the WHY behind the pain. If it’s e.g. part of a medical procedure, I keep repeating to myself and my brain “these are just automatic signals, I’m not getting hurt, I don’t need to register them”.
The pain is still there, but it’s much easier to deal with.
