And there are those who have it even harder than YOU. Everyone's station in life is different. They are allowed to experience that.

If they are being insensitive to your concerns, then maybe they are not a good friend, but it sounds like you're the one insensitive to their concerns. You can both have different concerns.

Also this is literally a Switch post in a gaming community amd you self selected this complaint in here. It's telling.

This is an odd place to put this complaint. You clicked on a post about the Switch. Make a post about struggling with money and the discussion should focus on that instead.

And if you go to Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Congo, people are worried about losing limbs, life and actual stage 1 Maslow survival. They probably envy your problems right now. They keep focused on shit that actually matters, like not dying.

Yeah, people care about different things related to their circumstances. That's life.

I'm sorry to hear about your situation - I'm in a somewhat similar financial position myself - but people are people, and in any income bracket there are things to be concerned about.

For you and me, it's getting enough money to eat. For someone else, it is affording a Switch. For others, it's the rise in the price of caviar forcing them into cheaper options.

Interestingly enough, all of this causes a significant amount of stress, and should you eventually get more money to spare, then after a brief euphoria you'll have the same worries about Switch prices and other things you don't seem to care about now.

In any case, I wish you all the best and hope you'll find your way out of a situation. Hope your spouse gets the surgery and becomes able to work, you have your teeth, and everyone lives a bit happier going forward.

Noone is disagreeing with your concerns. They are disagreeing with your selfrighteous stance that your problems are the most important.
Using a switch gaming thread for self pity is some major narcissism red flag.
