When we get a physical injury or pain, we can easily apply medicine to fix it and with time it will heal. But how do we heal from emotional pain? How do you fix something you can't even see? Well, firstly, you have to change the way you think about it.
Even if you don't think about it, your body still knows what to do for itself. It's just that our minds are too busy with other things. We spend our days thinking about work, making money, looking good and sometimes we forget to take care of ourselves. We forget to eat regularly, give ourselves enough time for rest and relaxation, and sometimes we even forget that there are other people who love us.
All of this is because of one thing: stress! And stress is caused by our thoughts about reality, our thoughts about the future or past, and they affect our bodies in many ways: physically (by making us sick), mentally (by making us depressed), or emotionally (by making us feel angry).

The best way to relieve stress is by finding a balance between work/money/beauty/love/family. But let's put the focus back on emotional pain, how do you heal from something like that? You're right, it's not easy to fix something you can't see, but there are ways to heal from it.
Let's say you have someone who hurt your feelings. You can try talking to them about it, or you could go visit them and talk face-to-face instead. If that doesn't work, maybe you could try ignoring their behavior for a while. If all else fails, there are some things you can do on your own:
Write down all the feelings and emotions that you're feeling and let them out. write the event that hurt your feelings, think about what happened and why it made you feel this way, and then choose a time in the future when you will be able to talk about it.
Talk about it with someone who cares.
Find another way to express yourself through art, music or other hobbies that you love doing!
Try writing your feelings down in a journal or on paper, so that when the time comes for you to look at these things again they won't seem so overwhelming. If you are comfortable with sharing it on a blogging platform like readcash, feel free!
Look at photos of happy memories with friends and family members who meant a lot to you during times when life wasn't easy for you. It helps to remind yourself how lucky we are to have people around us who love us
Conclusion
When life gets you down, it can be hard to find the strength to keep going. Sometimes all you want to do is curl up on your bed and cry, but there are ways of coping with pain that doesn't involve tears or shutting yourself off from others.
The point is, that we can't solve every problem by fixing it externally. Ultimately, the only way to truly solve something is to address the root of the problem. And if you're going to address the root of the problem, you have to give it time, trust yourself and believe in yourself that you will overcome it.
Only you know what's best for you and only you know how to solve your problems. Even if others do everything they can to help you out, even if they are willing to do whatever it takes for you ultimately, it's up to you to make yourself happy and move on from your past events or emotionally damaging situation.
Side note: This article was inspired by an old song titled Pretty hurts by the lovely Beyonce. I was listening to it earlier today and when I got to the part that says; "you can't fix something you can't see, it's the soul that needs the surgery" I just went: "boom! I have something to say about that" 😆 it's a very good song and its lyrics have a healing effect, feel free to check it out. And remember; be happy
