If you don’t mind me asking, what do you mean by break? To me, pain is easier if there’s nothing I can do to improve or prevent it. Takes a mental load off, at least. I’m thankful I don’t believe in afterlives, I’m SO looking forward to nonexistence.
That’s kind of what I mean. Usually resisting torment like being in a war zone or some injury is done so because you know that eventually the pain will go away. The war will end one way or the other or your injury will heal. “breaking” is like when soldiers go into shell shock. You’ve just endured so much physical and mental anguish that your body just shut you down and made you numb to the world. This is bad if you eventually recover from your injuries because PTSD can ruin the rest of your life even after the physical pain has gone away. In this case, though, you’re in hell for the rest of eternity as far as you know, better to just let your body go into that shell shock state and numb as much pain as you can.
