@SangriaSnake Oh my god, I hate that. I've had a lot of friends who thought somehow minimizing my problems would make them go away. Stuff like responding to my fatigue issues—which used to be so bad I couldn't get through a full workday without a two-hour nap—with "oh, everbody gets tired at work." I think they *meant* well, but... that stuff NEVER helps. I sympathize a lot!

Sometimes life just fucking sucks and all we're really looking for is someone to say "You're not crazy—that sounds like that fucking SUCKS."
