Remember when you were 5 and someone wouldn't play with you at school? It was the end of the world, and all the grown-ups around you brushed it off like it was no big deal, but, to you, the whole world was falling apart and all you wanted was someone to take you seriously.
Some things never change.
When you are depressed/happy/sad/angry/hurt/excited it's not fair when someone rains on your parade with their more depressing/happy/sad/angry/hurtful/exciting news or make you feel bad for feeling the way you do when there are people in the world who are better/worse off.
Just because you have never had something catastrophic or super-amazing happen in your life does that make your experience less worthy of feeling that way? Does that make your situation less important than someone elses'?
Because, to you it may well be the most catastrophic or super-amazing thing that has ever happened to you and sometimes there isn't anyone who will take you seriously.
