I understand what you are saying and you're right that things can be much worse and if this helps to make it easier for you to overcome the condition then great however it can also make people feel like they aren't allowed to feel the way they feel. It can actually make recovery even more difficult for anybody. Pain is pain and I don't personally believe that you have to be at a certain level of pain before you are allowed to vent and complain about it. However with the anxiety and depression we can do something about it and so instead of complaining, do something to fix it. I am sorry you are going through all those challenges right now and it must be very overwhelming, sad and stressful for you. Those are not easy things to handle.
