I feel like that sometimes even sober. Like as long as I know it's just pain and not damage my brain kinda ignores it. I know it's happening but I'm easily distracted

This is why I like intensely spicy foods. I use hot sauces with 6 digit scoville ratings. My entire mouth feels like it's burning but it doesn't bother me at all because I know it's just a trick played on my heat receptors, and the high I get from the endorphins my brain releases feels good.
