One thing I have never understood…

When you’re going through difficult times and someone tells you, “Other people are going through worse.”

Is that supposed to be comforting ?

What does that change about your situation ?

[b]Why[/b] would that make you feel better ?

And seriously, what kind of person feels [b]better[/b] for knowing others are in worse shape than they are ? 🥺

It doesn't change anything...[b]its a matter of perspective[/b].
Except your losses and move on.

@eyeno A powerful song. This site is the only place I vent, and the feedback usually helps. In rl most people have no idea. There’s a saying that I fear is truth:
"Complaining helps nothing. Most people don’t care about your problems, and some are even [b]glad[/b] you have them." 😞
