When I was in my early 20s I was near tears in my doctors office telling her that the health issues I was dealing with were ruining my quality of life and that I was so exhausted and in so much pain all the time that all I could do was go to work and come home and go straight to bed and had been like that for months. I was near suicidal and extremely depressed. She said “stop being dramatic, you could have cancer”.
I got kicked out of my in-laws for yelling at my spouse s sister for saying this.
My response was “What the fuck did you just say to her? Other people have it much BETTER than you do so why the fuck are you acting so fucking happy? That’s how fucking stupid you sound.”
For context, she had spent the entire 7 hours she had been awake sitting in a hot tub drinking wine and tequila instead of being a parent, and basically dumped all the responsibilities for the children of the day onto the only othertwo adults present, one of whom was having a panic attack. I was les than happy when I showed up after work to pick my spouse up and walked into chaos and her sobbingand hyperventilating in the bathroom.
Don’t wory, I got this
ehm
“There are people who have it worse than you”
Hope this helps

My In laws are terrible people.
Pain is relative, not a competition.
