If I get hurt, I can handle a lot of pain without crying or anything. I've broken bones and dislocated my knee before, which did hurt. I get used to it after a while, especially if I have to wait a long time in the ER.
03/04/2012
I think I have a pretty low tolerance.
03/04/2012
I'm between wimpy and average. If the pain is real bad or comes very suddenly, I'm liable to yelp or scream and then sit there hissing while I try to collect myself. But once the initial shock is over, I can do an assessment of the damage and take action.
03/04/2012
ive found that cursing a bit helps ease the pain

I can handle quite a bit of pain, but certainly not the worst pains. However, I am trying constantly trying to get used to worse and worse pain, because it gets me off.
03/04/2012
Not well!
03/04/2012
I have a pretty high tolerance. Dont get me mad though.

I don't know. I try to suck it up. It just depends on the location and intensity. Right now I'm waiting to have surgery on my foot where I have an accessory bone and collapsed arch. I never knew pain like I had before the inflammation went down and I had to wear a walking boot for a couple months. It still is crampy and painful at time and I have cried. I get migraines to the point of tears. I have tattoos and they caused me to yell out some not so nice words but I can handle it. Never broken anything. Haven't given birth yet but I just know I'm going to be a total bitch when it's time to deliver.

Depends on what it is that is hurting. Overall i think I am average with pain but there are alot of things where I am a whimp haha.
03/04/2012
Depends on the pain. I have a fairly high pain tolerence (I had an issue a few weeks ago that I was told sends a lot of people to the ER. I cried over the pain, but then I felt like I was being a baby and toughed it out. I saw a doctor a couple weeks later, and when he said that I didn't feel so bad for crying, haha)... but certain things, like a toothache, an ear ache, or a very sensitive area... I'm a wimp.

Within the past few years, I've learned that I can actually tolerate pain pretty well. I didn't know just how well until I dealth with a lot of it. I recently had a root canal and wisdom tooth done while awake with no meds except some numbing crap in my mouth! After dealing with such an extreme toothache since October, I was reassured that I can in fact, handle a bit. That's not to say I didn't do outrageous things to stop the pain such as standing on my head, tapping my temple pretty hard at times and jumping up and down! That pain, I never wanna feel again! It was horrendous. Nothing helped. It felt like this searing pain through my wisdom tooth, cheek and temple. I described it as feeling as if the muscles in there were being ripped slowly. So strange! I still have to finish the root canal this month. No idea why my dentist made me wait with only temporary filling that's only meant to last 6 days!

Also, I had endometriosis since the very beginning of my teen years and didn't have surgery until a year ago. I just now started living and having a life! I'm definitely enjoying it. Then there's the migraines. Ugh!
As for physical pain, I think I handle I can take quite a bit.
03/04/2012
I really don't know. I can't remember the last time pain made me cry. Probably period cramps - I have had them very bad before I went on a birth control where I only get 4 a year. But it wasn't even the PAIN that made it the worst - it was the fever and nausea. Without those, it wouldn't have been so unbearable.
Other than that, not much comes close, but I've never broken a bone or anything.
When I got my ears re-pierced, it did hurt a lot, especially because it was going through the old scar tissue. But I didn't flinch or cry. It hurt more than a tattoo, but certainly didn't last as long and hardly hurt after that initial feeling. I guess I must not react "normally" since I seem to get asked if I'm okay because I'm quiet and don't really react.

Im such a baby and my hubby will tell you so lol. Though, over the past few years I have come to be more able to control my pain levels because of having to deal with fibromyalgia on a daily basis. That, coupled with a few other things has me in pain daily. I've also given natural birth four times, so I guess maybe Im not as big of a baby as I thought? LOL

I'm a trooper. I've got fibro & chronic migraines so I'm grudging friends with pain.
03/04/2012
I'm not really sure since I've never been in that much pain before but I assume I'm whimpy.
03/04/2012
I can handle a huge amount of pain. I refuse to take pain meds.
I usually find a position to sit or lay in when I am in pain, and try not to move for a while. When I do I usually end up laughing at myself because how I got to be in pain is usually quite funny!

The worse pain I have felt is when my knee dislocates, but I'm getting use to that.
I only take pills for a migraine and then it's only when I have a mega one.

I can take a lot of pain.
03/04/2012
I can take some pain. I guess it depends what it is.
03/04/2012
With the exception of my head, being partially scalped in a car accident has made me sensitive to head pain, I can tolerate a very high amount of pain. Especially in my torso!!!
03/04/2012
I can cry from a bee sting, yet i was fine when i got a second degree burn.... go figure
03/04/2012
I guess it depends on the kind of pain, since I don't really get hurt too often physically.
03/04/2012
Sometimes I feel like I can handle pain and have been told I'm really pain tolerant. Other times I feel like a wimp. I guess it's the kind of pain that I'm experiancing. Sometimes I even feel like I welcome it. I almost like it. Guess it's a good thing because I hate taking drugs. I guess I just don't want to lose control.
03/04/2012
Sometimes i can handle it well, but sometime i cannot.
03/04/2012
It may depends on the pain position. Teeth pain I can't hold it. But stomach pain or Headache can be hold
03/04/2012
I'm okay with pain if I'm in control of it, such as the time I pierced my own ear. Otherwise I'm not keen.

I can take quite a lot of pain, but I avoid it of course...
03/04/2012
I can take alot of pain. I don't usually say anything either. I suffer inwardly. Sometimes make that inward hissing noise or swear haha.
03/04/2012
It depends on the context. I have migraines that put me out of commission for days, and I have fibromyalgia, which causes wipe spread muscle, connective tissue and joint pain. However, in some B&D settings, I can tolerate quite bit of intense sensory stimulation (which is a better way to describe it,) in the right context when I am psychologically grounded and prepared. However, it's a completely different arena as pain that you have no control over and the type of pain from illness that overtakes you with no consent.
03/04/2012
I think I'm fairly average, maybe a little above in pain tolerance - but with any small injury or in other settings I like to aggravate it and see how accustomed I can get to the feeling.

I can take a ton of pain. It's part of why I'm such a heavy sadist. One of my vows and disciplines is to only give what I personally can take, and since I can take so much...well.
03/05/2012
I handle pain well, and can take a lot of it. Like Sir, I am a sadist, and prefer to not do things to my bottoms that I would not submit to myself. There are definitely days when the people I play with wish I was more of a wuss!

I really do think that it depends on the type of pain. Some pain I can handle better than others.
03/05/2012
I can take a lot...I have some pretty severe spine/nerve injuries that, besides causing spine, arm, and leg pain, have caused a three year long, 24x7 headache that at times is absolutely blindingly painful...the rest of the time it's just terrible. my choices are to take it, or kill myself, so...I deal with it the best I can (and take lots of very strong pain meds so I can continue working, interacting with my family, playing with my wife, etc). With any luck, my next fusion surgery will fix what the first one didn't
03/10/2012
It really depends. If I have to deal with it, I try not to complain. That said if I know there is something I can do about it, (for example, when I went to the hospital to have my son) I'll take whatever pain meds I'm offered!
04/03/2012
It depends on the kind of pain. Kidney stones can be handled with grunts and OTC pain meds. Ear or tooth aches... I'm begging my family for a humane killer.
I'm used to there being a ton of pain in my back and belly region, which is probably why I'm okay with it, and I'm used to headaches, but ear and tooth pain are more than I can bear.

I've always had an extremely high pain tolerance. I think my tolerance is partly due to my extreme self-consciousness: I feel like a wimp when I'm in pain and I don't want to inconvenience anyone, so I just suck it up. I also had an experience when I was a kid when my folks thought I had appendicitis. The diagnosis at the ER: trapped gas. I was perhaps 6 or 7 at the time, but I was embarrassed that it was no big deal and I knew it was a costly trip. That moment is ingrained in my psyche, so whenever I'm in pain, I wait it out.
I've had a few moments where I complained about pain and friends thought it was nothing to worry about. But experiences with gallstones, ovarian cysts, displaced pelvis, etc, hy friends and family have finally learned that if I'm in tears, it's ER time.
And in all honesty, I get some pleasure from pain. Not as in "a broken arm gives me an orgasm" pleasure, but I dunno... it's a refreshing experience sometimes. It can bring attention to the most finite parts of the body. I don't seek out pain--though my boyfriend is catching on that I like pinches, bites and rougher sex sometimes--but I also don't usually resolve pain with painkillers and other healing methods.

Sexually speaking I do not enjoy pain.

I use to have a high tolerance as a kid....now, not so much, I'd consider it average..
04/10/2012
Resting and, if possible, sleep.

I've lived with chronic pain for over 10 years. Either you live with it or you don't...

I always thought I couldn't really handle pain. I told my tattoo artist that and he seemed confused... like I was lying about being a wimp. So I don't know. I'm probably somewhere in the middle.
04/11/2012
nothing worse than kidney stones.....drugs help lol
04/11/2012
Completely depends. I have had 2 kidney stones and they had me dropped to the floor moaning and screaming. When it comes to non-sexual pain, I am miserable. Bite my nipples, though, and I'm moaning in pleasure. I think you could probably bite one off and I wouldn't realize it. haha!
04/11/2012
I handle pain VERY well!
04/11/2012
I am great with pain. The more you expose yourself to, the more you can take.
04/11/2012
I can handle a lot of pain, although bad-pain I do try to avoid.
07/13/2012
pain doesnt really bother me..
07/13/2012
I can handle pain. Not only have I lived with a chronic illness that has pain I tough through, but I am a masochist and total pain slut when it comes to the bedroom.
07/13/2012
I'm alright with pain.
07/13/2012
The first time I broke a bone, I immediately passed out, and when I woke up everyone was packing up from camping and although my arm(broken) hurt, I wanted to stay. I was below ten at the time. They made me go anyways. I don't know what that says about me, I blacked out but I did tolerate it later on.
07/13/2012
I would say we are both average when it comes to pain tolerance
07/13/2012
I'm a big wussy and can't take much at all.
07/13/2012
I can handle a great deal of it. I think the most amount of pain I was ever in was labor. It was painful and lasted so long I gave in to getting meds.
07/13/2012
it depends on the pain.... i was a wimp during labor but i can sit in a tattoo chair for hours lol
07/13/2012
Verdammt ich haße Schmerzen
07/13/2012
I gave birth naturally without pain meds of any kind and plan on doing it again!
Pain is more of a physiological thing for me, I can do the more natural pain from child birth, but if I saw my arm bent the wrong way I'd pass out. I'd say Average tolerance for me.

07/13/2012
I don't think I can as much as I used to
07/13/2012
I am a clutz. I fall down all the time and get hurt all the time. Some pain i do enjoy but for the most part I think I'm pretty average
07/13/2012
It depends on the pain. If it's outside my body, like cuts, I can handle that. But if they are cramps, I'm more prone to groan and sob about it until it goes away. Tylenol and I are best friends. : ]
07/14/2012
I can take a lot of pain
07/14/2012
I can take a lot.
I grew up in a very rowdy house, so we would jump off of things/ wrestle/ do stupid stunts and get hurt a lot very often.
Pain is kinda like a background noise, the adrenaline is what I focus on.

Other. It depends on the kind of pain, I'm a wimp over internal pain but I can handle inflicted/injury pain very well.

Nothing special here
09/10/2012
I'm a weenie when it comes to pain, and proud to admit it.
09/10/2012
Gotta say that I have quite a great tolerance for pain ever since I was little. Never been one to cry over a skinned knee. Given my choice of lifestyle, gotta be able to take the pain.
09/10/2012
I pass out if i'm in extreme pain
09/11/2012
I'm in the middle. Depending on the pain I'm okay with. Extreme pain is when I start to have a problem
10/17/2012
I can take a lot of pain before it starts to bothers me
10/17/2012
I have a pretty high threshold for pain. Doesn't mean I like it, just that I've gotten used to dealing with pain that won't go away or that I can't take care of medically.
11/09/2012
I'm inclined to say that I'm slightly above-average. I've been nailed in the head with a soccer ball, broken fingers and toes, and I'm accident-prone over all...the lot of those get a grunt at worst.
However, cramps are irritating and keep me on-edge until the painkillers kick in. Same with stomachaches and headaches.
I much prefer to GIVE pain rather than take it myself.

it depends on the type of pain. if it's a pain i'm used to like back pain, i go on as usual.
cuts i have a high tolerance
burns, i'm a huge baby about burns
pain is so different for everybody that it is too difficult to compare. as far as non-sexual pain, i assume i have a pretty big tolerance because i can usually handle pain that is bad enough to cause nausea without medical help.

Depends! Some days I'm a little wimpy, some days I can nearly break a toe and not flinch. I can take a lot more self inflicted pain than I can pain inflicted by others too, but I'm nothing compared to my partner. I swear you could skin him alive and he'd still have the same unenthusiastic poker-face.

About average to above average. If its injury pain I can usually tolerate it better than most and if its pain from sensual activities then about average but working on more!

I can handle pain pretty well. I've had my thumbnail snapped off and didn't cry. I welcome some pain during sex but not much. Some nipple tweaking and slapping or flogging is about it for me. However I guess if I'm honest I'm not big for the soft flogging. In my mind if you're gonna use a flogger I wanna feel it.

01/14/2013
If it's light, stingy pain I'm a wimp. If it's serious pain (like I got a bunch of glass in my face, this has happened), I am totally calm and fix whatever has happened quickly, e.g. I went and pulled out the individual shards silently, with no tears. Ended up with no scars and didn't injure my eye!
Also, before I play with someone, I have to let them know that I'll cry and moan at little pain and enjoy it, but serious pain I react totally different to.

I have a pretty high pain tolerance, I think. Have to deal with it a lot, haha.

I do okay with physical pain.

I have a problem of not realizing I'm hurt. I have a pretty unusually high pain tolerance, so I'll often not notice I'm injured until I see blood. It's not a good thing.
If I get injured badly my natural reaction is to start laughing. It scares people, they think I've lost my mind.

I have a high tolerance for pain. I just focus on my breathing.
