It's unwanted and frightening. Your awareness of it, even your awareness of the possibility creates revulsion and fear.

It's so strong you have a hard time thinking about anything else, a hard time functioning, and you feel that something is deeply wrong that you are powerless to change.

At least, that's what I find bad about pain. I suppose those things are technically my fault.
