With everything going on in the US I feel practically guilty for having mental issues in the EU. My worst problems fall into nothingness compared to the daily terror some (well, millions) of Americans experience these days. My heartfelt sympathies.

"other people have it better, so stop being so happy!"

See how that sounds when you flip the sadness around?

Just because someone else's situation might be objectively worse than yours, does not for a second discount the situation you are in.

If my wrist breaks, I still have a broken wrist no matter how many people got their arms cut off.

Don't feel guilty.
