Insightful and true. In America it's practically taboo to tell someone they don't need a thing and the tolerance for any discomfort is extremely low.

- Nasrudith 7y agoAs it should be in my opinion - admittedly colored by own experiences and phobias. Hospitalization is a leading cause of PTSD. That "discomfort" can leave people pretty traumatized and messed -all because of other's puritan desires. If you washed someone's wounds in salt water when there were alternatives it would be rightfully regarded as sadism - why the tolerance for unnecessary pain and suffering otherwise?
