I got very sick almost a year ago, a few times in the ER, spent months in bed.
There's no silver lining to suffering. Your mind doesn't work. It's hard to concentrate. Sex isn't very enjoyable. It's next to impossible to exercise well. You're constantly irritated and lash out at the people around you. You don't get used to it. You adapt, sure, but it sucks big time.
F##k suffering.
(I'm getting better btw, doctors still don't know wtf happened to me).
- ataturk 8y agoBut do you appreciate simply feeling well after you got better? Are you still chasing idiotic status and material goods or are you more content with just being okay?
- nerdponx 8y agoI came here to say something similar to this. It's possible that you might learn some things about yourself and about the world through the experience, that you otherwise might not have learned. But if it goes on for too long (and/or it's too severe) it just ruins your life.

- jm__87 8y agoYeah I'm with you. Suffering on its own is pointless. Learning how to live with pain can bring some interesting insights in to life I think, but it's obviously better to just never have to learn this in the first place.
