Almost always after I read some posts from this forum I feel quite ashamed. People are or were in worse situations and here I am doing nothing and thinking I have problems.
Also I really like Alec Benjamin's new song.
No need for you to feel that way. Everyone's problems are subjective.
There are people around the world who are starving to death, or living in countries where they have no freedom, or who are in all kinds of other situations more horrible than mine.
I live in a first world country, so I shouldn't feel like I have any real problems because, compared to people who live in some other countries, I probably don't.
But again, it's all subjective. I don't think you can compare one person's problems to another person's problems because each person experiences things differently. Everyone has a different breaking points.
There are many women who lose their husbands and they go on living just fine. I could never do that. Without my husband,
I don't feel like I have any reason to exist anymore. All I've wanted from the moment that he died is to join him. That's my breaking point. Someone else might be able to go on without him and be just fine. That person would have a different breaking point than mine.
Therefore, I don't think you should compare yourself to anyone else. Only you know your own experiences and how much you can handle.
Everyone is welcome (well, except the pro-lifers and scammers) and we're all glad that you're here. We all have different issues and different problems, but I don't think any one person's problems are any better or worse than any other person's problems on this forum. . . When it comes down to it, we all ended up here. That's reason enough for me.
