I'm a US Citizen btw. (but I'm not white)
With everything going on in the US I feel practically guilty for having mental issues in the EU. My worst problems fall into nothingness compared to the daily terror some (well, millions) of Americans experience these days. My heartfelt sympathies.
Keep in mind that this is not a competition. There is enough room for all of us to suffer together.
"There's room enough for us all to suffer together."
World Economic Forum 2025 slogan?
As a US citizen who has legitimate concerns about this administration affecting my right to exist here, please let me assure you that your struggle is real and important. You should not compare what you're facing with anyone else's struggles, except to empathize with them. They say comparison is the thief of joy and that is true in multiple ways. Your issues deserve to be addressed. I truly hope things get better for everyone.

Don't feel guilty. Everyone has their own struggles. You can look at people who are in worse situation to get some perspectives in live. If it helps you to be positive that's ok. But don't use that as a way to disregard what you are feeling and why it's a problem and how you may solve it. I call it "don't be grateful someone stabbed you in the leg just because someone besides you got stabbed in heart and died". Yes you're better off, but you still need to worry about you and get better.
"other people have it better, so stop being so happy!"
See how that sounds when you flip the sadness around?
Just because someone else's situation might be objectively worse than yours, does not for a second discount the situation you are in.
If my wrist breaks, I still have a broken wrist no matter how many people got their arms cut off.
Don't feel guilty.
You don't need to feel bad for other because of your mental isues. Everbody has their own thing going and and their own struggles. Just look out for yourself and your loved ones. Stay strong!
dont worry, its just a matter of time here too
its OK to loose at competitive suffering, few will judge you for it.
Stay strapped!
Yeah like... I'd love to go on vacation if I had the money but I think to myself, where would I go? Borders or airports would probably get me put in a detention center for felony gender fraud or whatever, so id have to go somewhere driveable and I've pretty much exhausted all those options with previous trips.

Choices have consequences
Bro, my game glitched. I didn't get the character creation screen so the game randomly generated this character... π
