My Heart is Broken

Posted on June 26th, 2015

Image illustrating the weight of mental pain, often concealed and harder to express than physical pain. Ideal for themes of mental health awareness, emotional suffering, the stigma around mental illness, and the difficulty of sharing internal struggles.
“Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.””
