  • Emotional pain can cause heart problems, and it sounds like that's what you're going though.

  • Yes. It has been proven by some neurological studies that a sensation of physical pain can be felt at grave emotional loss. I remember when I broke up with an online boyfriend I had for a long time, I would cry a lot and eventually feel this pain in the palm of my hands. Needless to say, it's not worth it beating yourself up over anything.
