Is it true that emotional pain can be just as destructive to your body as physical pain?

No, absolutely not. The more you resist the experience of emotional pain, the more you turn away from it, try to suppress it, the more the emotional pain that you still carry with you will affect your body. So it’s the opposite.

Never resist emotional pain. It’s always better to cry yourself out, there is always a relief after you do. Releasing emotion is good for you, and it’s good for your body.
