Re: I'll make a secret about this later, but I have to say it right now:

Just to be clear here: your message boiled down to its essence is that people who've been subject to physical or mental trauma should just get over it? That's what you're trying to say, yeah?

Not exactly. The point is that we carry our pain and we go forward anyway. Life is full of pain.

It isn't always easy to cope with it. I have friends with chronic illness, and they aren't getting better.

But whining that your life is ruined because of past trauma, or temporary pain? That is factually wrong.

I'm guilty of that myself. :/

I just find it hard to think that people dwelling too much on pain is really the biggest problem our society has with its approach to pain, or that it's a high priority to deal with.

How much do you know about these people on the Internet that you can state with confidence that their trauma is "past" enough, or their pain "temporary" enough to disallow complaining?

Stoicism doesn't work for everyone, and I say that as someone who lives by it and has never really talked about my problems, not even to my loved ones. Thinking that something that is effective for one's self can apply to everyone else is an error in perception.
