撕心肋肺也不过如此
[sī xīn lèi fèi yĕ bù guò rú cĭ]
Describing an intense emotional distress where the agony experienced cannot even compare fully with having your ribs torn out alongside heartache. An exaggerated metaphor signifying the magnitude of mental suffering and sorrow that surpasses physical wounds; it represents deep-seated sorrow, betrayal, or devastation felt by someone after experiencing significant loss or hardship, indicating that despite everything, such experiences have left an irreversible impact.
