I am sorry to read about your situation and truly hope you are able to be in a better place as soon as possible.
I think being healthy in both mind and body is obviously advantageous compared to the alternatives, but I still don't think that life is easy for said people. Though, I suppose it would have to be looked at on an individual basis and not as a group.
One can be physically and mentally health and still be in abject poverty with no hope or way of getting out. One can also be healthy and on the lower distribution of intelligence. Having low enough intelligence is commonly coupled with certain disorders, but there is still a grey-area where you are still below average intelligence, but above any diagnostic criteria. I would argue that level of intelligence could cause many issues and disorder in one's life, and that their suffering isn't fake because there is no formal pathology to describe it.
Do said people suffer less than those with disorders? Perhaps, but I do not wish to view human suffering as some sort of competition. I think we should strive to help and to support all people when possible.
