When I was young, I believed hell to be a concrete place where there was brimstone, fire, lawyers and of course Satan. Now I believe in 'hell' in a broader and more realistic psychological scope. So not as a place, but a state of mind. In that, I think we have the potential to make hell real.

I am in my own personal hell at the moment, by choice. I am cut off emotionally from the people around me. I mean, I know that I am not in a good place and yet I don't make a choice to move forward into a more positive perspective... I think I may be a masochist.

Hell to me is indecision. The inability to come to a conclusion about a given thing. To ponder long hours and have nothing to show for it, is hellish.

Same here, but replace country music with Baba Yetu. Also add a computer with the only ability being posting in a FF fanboy forum...

Having an bacterial gut infection which would render me immobile, vomiting water and bile for all eternity with the most intense stomach pains known to anyone. I would become so dehydrated my muscles would be in a constant state of soreness and pain and I would never be able to eat or drink with fear of more retching. I can't sleep, I'm exhausted and there's no one with me.

Because this exact same thing happen to me last week after eating dirty Mexican street tacos. win.

Just being in an empty room devoid of all people and any object I could possibly use.

Though, from what others have said, having people I care about yelling at me would be pretty hellish too.

My hell would suck. If everyone I knew were to suddenly turn their backs on me. Disown me and not speak to me. That would be pretty lonely.

Other than that, I could tolerate most anything else for eternity. Jokes on the devil.

There's some forms of torture almost everyone would be bothered by those just being a few of a probably vast list. My personal version of hell is an elaboration on the being alone angle, the twist being my insecurity's being manifested in a physical being as my only form of company, it would quite frankly drive me insain... the emo is strong is this thread :(

The sound of those white blocks that are used in TV packageing rubbing together (the bastad son of 'squeek')

Failing that, takign full brunt of a Metor/A-Bomb/Big Explosion over, n' over, n' over, n' over.

Failing that, being stuck in Kanon.

A personal hell would probably involve some sort of physical torment from which there is no escape... or maybe just a fleeting escape so you never forget what it is like to be without pain. Unlike a lot of these proposed hells, I'd not be alone in mine, that I suppose I could come to terms with. Seeing people that I love tormented as well... that would be the worst.

OK, I want to change my answer. This is my personal hell. I can't even stand to think of seeing my children being tormented.

Guess I'd better start behaving.

Exactly what I first thought of when I saw the name of this thread.

Probably solitary confinement. No internet, no TV, nobody to talk to, you're not allowed to write, draw, listen to music, etc. Just a room and a toilet.

My personal hell:

Either to lose all abilities and hopes to do something (to be completely useless, even for myself), or...

To lose something to hold on.

Kinda lame hah?

My own personal hell would be easy to describe since in some ways I feel like I'm already there, thoughts in my mind just holding me down.



Hell is where time stops yet you're aware of that one last moment before everything just freezes. Like for instance, in my mind I can imagine myself purged with white flames, my body seering in pain as the flesh melts away and the organs liquidfy. And in that one moment everything just stops... but the pain won't go away. To burn or drown or anything... anything at all without change yet to be able to experience all of it for eternity...



That is my personal hell. It's always locked in a box in my mind...
