What Are We Really Trying to Escape When We Numb Ourselves?

we really trying to escape when we numb ourselves? the obvious answer is pain, but the question becomes what pain? I think the misunderstanding is that it's circumstantial meaning pain, something specific is hurting us. We numb ourselves with chemicals, with drama, with intense experiences, with adrenaline. But what I think is true for most people who are constantly numbing themselves, it's not a response to a specific issue. Like, let's say a person has money problems or relationship problems. Those are all circumstantial. Most people who are heavily is because existence itself is hurtful. If you don't that means I'm very happy for you, but there are many people for whom existence itself is inherently excruciating. Sensitive souls. Souls that come to for their embodiment, everybody else, for some reason they never quite get acclimated. They always feel uncomfortable in their own skin, literally. Their souls that never really being in bodies, being in bodies. And therefore is painful. And that's why the only really effective way that cycle is for these sensitive souls to find meaning in their embodiment to finally embrace that as difficult as it is, your soul was needed here, physical Earth to contribute something unique and valuable. Notwithstanding all of the difficulties. It's worth it.
