Distractions. Temporary. Alleviate things for a moment or two. An hour if you are lucky. Distractions actually make things worse. They delay you from feeling things at the rate you are to supposed to feel them. When the distraction is gone you feel things at a rate that you are unprepared for. The gravity of things swallow you whole. You are engulfed by flames of regret, denial, and sadness. I am unsure as to which is the worst. All hurt. All cause pain.
