Self explainatory, do you have a high or low threshold for pain? Your welcome to give examples of your painful experiences.

I have a high threshold for the most part, but not for an extended period of time in most cases.

This is gonna sound weird, but it depends on who's causing it. If I'm forcing myself through it, I have a very high tolerance. If I didn't choose to go through with it, a very low tolerance.

Examples: Training for volleyball. No matter how much it hurt to keep running/practice passing, I kept going, because I knew I wasn't going to get any better being a wuss. No pain, no gain.

However, when they cut off my morphine after my surgery a few years ago, I was NOT a happy camper. (Not my fault they gave me too much and got me high at first stressed ) It was extreemely painful just to sit there, let alone walk, which I had to do if I wanted out by my birthday. Once I made the decision to walk as much as possible, despite the pain, my tolerance went way up.

Depends whereabouts on my body the pain is. For example, I can stand pain on my back and my arms, but not my feet, hands, or stomach. );

As far as external pain I'm pretty tolerant, when it comes to internal pain i'm pretty tolerant, but not if it's for an extended period of time.

I have a fairly high pain tolerance. It depends on what is causing it.

I like to think I have a pretty high pain tolerance (or am at least stubborn). That's why I was able to get through a 30-min. long game of Bloody Knuckles (at the cost of having a few cracked bones in my right hand). Besides, I wouldn't be a very good masochist if I didn't have a decent pain tolerance. xP I like only certain kinds of pain, though... Like... hot candle wax... *Trails off*
Er... anyway....
I also like the sight of my own blood. ^.^;;;

I have a high threshold of pain, I can stand it and sometimes enjoy it....And bloody knuckles and the punch for punch game are really fun and exciting

I'm a huge wuss. xd Except for certain things; the pain of needles, hot wax things (why'd you have to bring that up, Messy? xd ), and being slapped around I'm all-for, if you get my drift. >>; xD

Whereas being hit in the head by a stray volleyball is pretty much the end of the world for me. Or headaches. Get a headache and THE GAME IS OVER, EVERYBODY GO HOME NOW GODDAMNIT ;-;
oh god it hurts
Funny how pain reception and interpretation works. xd

I would classify mine as lower-high.
