No I dont. A friend and I was discussing how the suffering of others always helps to put our own issues into perspective. She has a newborn, inpatient for treatment, for 2 weeks. She said, she felt hurt, helpless, angry and overwhelmed, UNTIL a new mom moved into the ward with her 2y.o son dxd with stage 4 cancer... My mom always told me that when you think how ****** your life is, remember that somewhere someone else is worse-off. She didnt mean my experience is invalid, but gave me some perspective.
