Induced labor is extra hard because you go from 0 to 60 immediately.  In natural labor your body has a chance to adjust to the pain and adjust your hormones to help you cope. Induced labor is more likely to end in interventions including vacuum or forceps assisted birth or C section because it is possible baby just isn't ready and no your body doesn't want to labor yet.
