These experience of pain can come from depression which is caused by fear, anxiety, disappointment and guilt. For victims going through terrible experiences the replay or the reliving of these past traumatic events can become very disabling.

But, those who have bipolar disorder symptoms it is very different from the normal way we experience as this will be discussed later.

Emotional Pain and the Causes

A lot of people go through traumatic experiences during their childhood years and these can be due to a number of factors like physical abuse, being neglected, abandoned by parents, or the loss of a loved one. With adults, emotional pain can be due to the end or the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship like divorce, the loss of the source of income, becoming a victim in a violent crime and substance abuse. Most often when severe trauma has been endured, victims can be continuously inhabited by bad dreams and constant nightmares. In the case of war or rape victims mental images can be experienced on a daily basis.

Bipolar and the Deep Emotional Pain

To the point it is hurting they can hardly move, these emotional pain experienced by bipolar victims can be very deep. These experiences can be compared to someone putting a knife through you. It is quite a deep, deep pain which can last from a few minutes to several hours and suddenly go out of the scene for no obvious reason. This very severe feeling of being alienated may also accompany this deep emotional pain.

Linking Past Traumas with Depression

Because our past traumas is stored in our unconscious mind some believe this emotional pain which is caused by low self-esteem, hatred of self, deep shame, anxiety and guilt is surfaced during bipolar depression. It is believed that all of these negative emotions and thoughts may contribute greatly to both the manic and depressive episodes.

Final Words

This emotional pain have lead a lot of people committing suicide and it is important not to be just brushed aside and be taken seriously.

When in a bad or severe crisis, bipolar medications can be the safest and fastest way to getting the person back to normal. All present and past issues play a very critical role in creating emotional instability and those with bipolar symptoms, their emotional pain cannot be linked back to a traumatic event. These pains seems to pop out of nowhere and disappear all of a sudden.
