El sufrimiento es la sensación motivada por cualquier condición que someta a un sistema nervioso al desgaste. El sufrimiento puede ser por causas físicas o emocionales (psicológicas) y siempre es consciente, no se puede hablar de sufrimiento inconsciente según el psicoanálisis como tampoco se puede hablar de sentimiento o sensaciones inconscientes. Existen cuatro causas del sufrimiento consciente emocional: El temor, la frustración, la sumisión y la cuarta tiene que ver con el "No querer hacer" y el "No poder hacer". Cabe aclarar que estas cuatro causas del sufrimiento consciente pueden generar gran placer inconsciente.

Suffering, or pain in a broad sense, may be an experience of unpleasantness and aversion associated with the perception of harm or threat of harm in an individual. Suffering is the basic element that makes up the negative valence of affective phenomena. The opposite of suffering is pleasure, or happiness. Suffering is often categorized as physical or mental. It may come in all degrees of intensity, from mild to intolerable. Factors of duration and frequency of occurrence usually compound that of intensity. Attitudes toward suffering may vary widely, in the sufferer or other people, according to how much it is regarded as avoidable or unavoidable, useful or useless, deserved or undeserved. Suffering occurs in the lives of sentient beings in numerous manners, and often dramatically. As a result, many fields of human activity are concerned with some aspects of suffering. These aspects may include the nature of suffering, its processes, its origin and causes, its meaning and significance, its related personal, social, and cultural behaviors, its remedies, management, and uses.
