Drag Me To Hell

Maybe i'm a terrible person, but sometimes it's really hard to take suggestions of how 'it could be worse' from people, because although that is definitely the case, it's completely unavoidable at any stage of your life, and if you let that get you down, then you truly will not get anywhere. It doesn't change the fact that you're still in your mess of a situation, and that it still needs sorting out, even if you are looking at it from a different viewpoint. Yes, there'll always be people worse off than you, but without ever knowing the reality of those situations, I think that being consumed in depression by your own messy situation is certainly valid and acceptable. It is not until you experience this 'could be worse' for yourself that you can then look upon a 'lesser' problem more positively and approach it more effectively, as then yes, it could be worse. You know that for a fact.
