You cannot. I repeat. CANNOT.
Compare one person's suffering with another's. It doesn't work that way. You cannot invalidate one person because someone else had it quote on quote worse. There isn't a worse, because they are not the same person, and they haven't had the same experiences. Yes, someone might have had something more severe happen to them, but you can't say that another persons pain is not just as valid purely because the cause of the pain wasn't as bad as someone else's. That one thing, although not as bad as someone else's, might be the worst thing to happen to THEM yet. You see that, THEM. Not you, or the person your trying to compare with. THEM, because the only way to really "compare" someone's pain, is by seeing THEIR past experiences. AND STILL, it's not even comparable because it is not, they're not the same as they where.
People are made and shaped by so many things, and no one is ever completely the same. I’ll say it again. No one is EVER completely the same. So, no one ever completely reacts the same way, has the same experiences to draw knowledge from, lessons from. Hell, no one even has the same exact thought process. Everyone is different, and everyone has been shaped differently.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk☺️
