I can still be angry.

I know other people have it worse, but that doesn't mean I can't be angry about stuff all the same.

Putting this up here mostly because I can't talk about it with my family, as some people know I've recently done some damage to my leg, for obvious reasons I've been a bit pissed/depressed about it, yet every time I try to talk about it everyone says the same thing,

'Some of the horror stories I've heard about this stuff, you're lucky you've done so well.'

Yeah I know, other people with the same problem can't walk or work their legs half as good as me, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I CAN'T BE PISSED ABOUT IT! Somebody is always gonna be worse off than someone else, that's just life, just because their problems are worse doesn't make mine better. I hate it, it's like I'm not allowed to be angry about it which just sucks.

And odds are I'm going to have to have surgery on my leg, which freaks me out, yes I admit I am absolutely terrified about the thought of having to go into surgery, but if I mention that it's always the same thing, 'Well this person's had to have a bunch of surgeries' or 'this isn't going to be half as bad as your other surgery'

I just want to complain about it, that's how I cope, something pisses me off I complain about it for a few hours or a day tops and then I deal with it. I'm really glad I have this place, at least here I know I can rant to people without them berating me for it.
