That's cool. Congratulations.

Now, imagine if you were in pain and spent those weeks without any medicine. The whole establishment, from blue collar workers to C.E.O.'s, would be unsympathetic to the bullshit you had to undergo just because you couldn't take that one little hit to erase your pain.

This is one of the reasons why it's easy to give up on life.

I guess, it's a little more complicated than this.
