Do you believe time heals all wounds?

Heals? Not completely. Everything leaves a scar. But time stops it bleeding, at least.

Nope, Im sorry but afraid not. The one woman that I love is no longer with me, and everytime i think of it, it still hurts years later, as it did the first time.

Scars always reamin to remind us that things have been worse before.

Time buries problems. It does not fix them. Sometimes it is necessery to leave some time before trying to deal with a problem in order to quell the strong emotions you associate with it. But in the end problems must be faced not forgotten.

Times a great healer but not for all wounds.

Yes, I agree that time is a great healer. Although during childhood we're very vulnerable and run the risk of developing unconstructive ways of coping and thinking. Carrying these habits over into adult life can cause further damage in wasted opportunities, low self-esteem etc.

this is fucking stupid...an "its so deep an meaningful saying" when no, its not, its fucking stupid....

Time CREATES all wounds.

Most, but not all. Time simply gives the necessary distance to move on with your life. I'm still waiting for that myself.

This is not true. It is entirely possible to be traumatized for life and some wounds simply never heal. In particular if you lose a child or someone very close to you, chances are you will never recover.

Most wounds do heal though. Break ups usually do, even if it hurts really bad at first. Sometimes it can take a few years, it seems to me like people are very different when it comes to that.

Time heals some wounds, not all. Those wounds that aren't healed get easier to live with over time, but they don't necessarily go away.

What is this "time" you speak of???? o.O

FUck that I hated you 20 years ago I hate you now

Time just makes you forget about the wound. It doesn't heal it. People forget they are hurt. They live their lives covering up their wounds with weak little patches of happiness to preserve their own sanity. One little reminder though... Just a slight scrape at the afflicted area, and the person bleeds out just like the first time. They become reminded of all the pain and suffering they went through and they realize that nothing has changed. They didn't heal. They just forgot.

Nope, still scars. Always will be.

It will always be an open wound. Time doesn't do shit.

I disagree. Mainly because when people close to you die, you never truly get over it. I mean they are still dead.

Yep everyone does it.

Time only makes the wound hard and callused, but it can never truly heal it. It can only make it easier to accept what happened.

If you are open to the idea of being healed, you will be healed but there are of course several exceptions. Time ultimately makes you see things in the past in a more logical understandable way. The more you live life the more you understand about it. But sometimes people don't learn from their mistakes and are naive and believe that there won't be a "mental struggle" of any kind. Just don't let things affect you too much if they do!

Depends on the person's perspective, the magnitude of the trauma, and the amount of optimism they have.

If they're a depressed, pessimistic, emo... they may never recover from a trauma.

If they're a happy, optimistic, realistic person... they might get a shock or be temporarily traumatized, but heal completely after a long time.

Personally, I have a high amount of optimism, I'm a realistic thinker, laid-back, and I can see from most perspectives. Therefore, traumas don't hurt as much as they would a normal person. I bottle up the emotions, and let them go when the time is right. Then when they go, they're gone, and they don't come back.

Same here Vetterman. No joke, I'm waiting for the day she dies so I can take a dump on her grave. I'll probably get busted if they test the DNA but hey, the video I up on the net will live forever.
