I agree. As people we're sometimes eager to compare one type of pain to another, which is completely irrational. Its something that the took me a long time to fully understand because I've seen people in my family who had it worse off than me and I grew up telling myself to "toughen up", which led me to all kinds of unhealthy thoughts in my life. Its this type of comparative pain that causes the problem. A person who lost their arm can't tell someone who lost their hand that their pain is any less valid.
