I used to think that something like this wasn't possible. I always assumed that if you were in constant pain or something you would somehow grow used to it over time in the same way that being subjected to cold temperatures raises the bodies resistance to cold temperatures.
Another example would be drugs and chemical receptors in the brain. Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't it be the same as with drugs, the more pain you get the more neurotransmitters are being used and the more are required to make a stronger response? Shouldn't you then technically feel less pain over time if it's constant?
