Who do you call someone who likes pain?

Question

I've been dealing with a chronic pain in my back for months, and it's really getting to me. Sometimes I feel like I'm just getting used to the discomfort. What do you even call someone who, for whatever reason, seems to 'like' or tolerate pain more than others, or someone who is seen as seeking it?

Someone who likes pain can be called a masochist. It's a psychological term. If you or someone you know feels this way, it might be helpful to talk to a therapist or counselor. They can offer guidance and support in a safe space.

That's a very specific question. In general, such a person is often described as a masochist. It's a complex psychological term, but more important is to understand the root of any such feelings. Being kind to oneself and seeking inner peace is always beneficial.

Someone who likes pain is called a masochist. I actually looked this up recently because a friend was asking. It's often linked to psychological factors, so if it's impacting anyone, professional help can really make a difference.

Aisa jo pain pasand karta hai, usko masochist bolte hai, ho na? It's a bit of a complex topic, like from psychology. Just make sure ki everything is okay and if needed, talk to a proper professional.

We used to say 'kuch ajeeb insaan' (a strange person), but the actual word is masochist. It's a psychological thing, not just a simple like or dislike. If someone is experiencing this, understanding and empathy are important.
