This conversation sounds terribly close to the old "I have bad days too. I just pull mysef up by my bootstraps...". People with multiple sclerosis have pins and needles type pain quite often but because we can prove the MS through MRI we don't question if their unmeasurable pain is real or to what degree it is, as it would differ with each patient. Question... before medical science could prove hypothiroid condition, do you think those women were discribed as just lazy? Here is my reply... Thank God every day that you just cannot relate to the emotional pain many of us speak of. You are quite fortunate. It's so much like the man who believes that his bad day is the same as someone elses severe depression. No offence but that seems like it is simply ones ego attempting to reinforce that one is stronger (or better) than another.
