I've overestimated my own burden

Permanent Linkby caughtinafray on Mon Oct 17, 2016 12:01 am

Having read some others' stories, I believe I've come to realize something. My problems aren't that big of a deal. Before joining this site, I thought having multiple diagnoses made me extremely unlucky, but looking around, there are many people who have it much worse than me. Abuse, childhood neglect, being crapped on by the people around you.....I haven't been there. I mean, there were some <derogatory term>'s who picked on me in school, particularly in middle school. Trying to look like bad asses to make up for the fact that they weren't, and succeeding only in looking like <derogatory term>'s, might I add. But I really don't have it that bad after all.

There are always people that have it better.

There are always people that have it worse.

Doesn't invalidate your own misery, but it is good to keep a sense of perspective. We too easily lose sight of it sometimes....
