when people are sad, they’re upset about it for a bit and then they find ways to move on from it. when i’m sad, i go through the 5 stages of grief and feel my body physically hurt from my chest to headaches to pelvic cramps, and i have no means of doing anything to try to ignore it or get through it. with my sadness there is no moving on from it; i wait it out like a storm at sea that’s inevitably going to happen again.
