Why is life harder for some people?
Natalia J 52132130-Jul-24
Some people are just more sensitive, introspective and thoughtful, and tend to have more angst and ennui about life in general than others. Plus, everything else can be perfect, and you can just get unlucky and have something terrible happen that you could never have imagined or prevented. What are your thoughts? Why is life harder for some people?

      It seems upbring , learn behaviour does influence how we do life . Genetics and inherited mental health issues are also a huge influence

        genetics, some try, some don't, some never get a chance, you have to have the want to get anything, never say "someday i will go there", unless you start planning right away, you will be in the some don't, category where you sitting on your porch at 80, thinking, i wish i had gone there, life is short, find your genetics and go against them and enjoy life☺️

          I believe Life iis a Gamble. like a deck of cards or even Craps and everything happens for a reason. Its up to you to recognize what game you are playing, who you're up against and who is dealing the cards. Because. Some people get dealt the wrong hand or very Bad hand. Some are lucky and nreak even while some Cheat and wins the game over and over again. Just remember, Life isn't fair and the House always win.

            I think everyone has obstacles in life, its probably about not giving up and trying to overcome them, by thinking about positive alternatives.

                  I once was told if everyone in your neighbourhood put a sign on their lawn you would be shocked what they are going through. It’s true we all struggle. The cost of living, lack of jobs our situations all are different but we are in this together. For me is grief.

                    Personally I think it is the circumstances that you find yourself in. After all, we are all responsible for our actions. Only you can fix it with a little (or more) effort.

                            yes, & it is due to their perspective of what to expect from life.Also, some people are luckier than others due to their abilities & working harder than others.

                                Racism, sexism, sexual orientation, physical disabilities, mental health issues since birth, and abusive parents - just to name a few things that happen every day in the 'real world' - which makes LIFE harder for some people on an everyday basis!

                                  Horrible things do happen to some people. Look at the people who beat one form of cancer only to get another type, but some people carry a huge chip on their shoulder imagining slight where there is none. Attitude and disposition also play a part in how life treats you. When something bad happens some people blame God. God doesn't cause it but does allow it, so instead of asking "why me" some people ask "why not".

                                    Most people have problems but not everyone deals with them in the same way, and not all problems are genetic, drugs, alcohol and smoking can have nasty effects.

                                        The cards I was dealt with wouldn't have been my choice. Trauma and family played a big part . I don't believe there is such things as a perfect family. I can say honestly say I done it all my myself with no help from family and I hold my head up high and know I can sleep at night. But they say everything is meant to try us and grow from our experience in life no matter how hard it is . But to be honest I wouldn't want to be born into wealth and have everything on a silver platter as there would be nothing to strive for and achieve

                                          There are many factors at work here. It depends a lot upon individual personalities and how people react to situations. It can be down to pure chance, but often too people can make life easy or difficult through their own actions and attitudes.

                                              Life can be hard to understand why me sometimes but then we look at others who have nothing and realise that life is so short we need to love and be kind to each other . A hug and a smile can take away all our pain.

                                                For the poor people who are born into poverty, 3rd world country's and dangerous parts of the world it's a situation beyond their control. Focus is on surviving day to day. These are the people I think of when I struggle to cope. For the rest of us born elsewhere regardless of socio sconomics,race or religion we all have times when life is a struggle,some more than others. You may think some have a better, easier life, but you truly don't know until you walk in their shoes. Ie last few years famous actors/ actresses ,socialites,celebrity's,popular seemingly happy with the world at their feet,but struggling with depression,drug use,alcohol and commit suicide. Tributes always say,"we had no idea",or "they we so happy,had everything to live for". Everyone struggles,.

                                                    Ellen you are so right - I lost my seventeen year old son who was playing football at lunchtime in high school. There was a truck in the grounds and my son ran back to catch the ball and the truck was reversing -neither one saw the other. I thought I would never get over it but a couple who were Christians reached out to my husband and myself and we asked Jesus to come into our lives and we now live on property with our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and yes there are times when I wonder what my son would have been doing but I praise and thank God for what I have.

                                                          It's partly how you were raised, your environment, income from family members to have nice things, no upbringing in church. These things shouldn't stop you from trying to achieve your goals. Don't let the negatives from your life be a crutch.

                                                            Yeah I don't get it either. I went to school with a girl and any way we grew apart and I saw her years later. What she went through in her life I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy { just an expression if you know what I mean.} It was really sad and all I had wanted for her was the best and unfortunately she didn't get the life I thought she would have had. Another friend of the families daughter lost her fiancé and her baby all in the same month. Life is cruel and unkind. The unknown out comes can certainly upset whole families. Cancer, dementia, accidents. When our number is up, it's up so make the most of what you have, what you have got because you never know when it will be no longer. I still have my Mum and Dad which amazes me and I am very grateful because I know a lot of people aren't so lucky. Mum's getting confused some but Dad is doing so well for his age. They are celebrating 65 years of marriage and Mum's 87 and Dad is turning 86 soon. They have had a wonderful life together and they are very much still in love, it's just beautiful to see.

Some things are no big deal for one person but is for another. Even when you look at kids raised in the same family they can end up with completely different lives. Then there is disability and mental illness on top of that for some. Every one has a different perspective of the world around them and our bodies all react differently to external factors.

Add to that disabilities etc and life can be extremely hard for some. It all depends on the drive a person has to better their situation.

Born into poverty or bad family circumstances, disabilities etc .. it's those that rise out of it that have somehow found the determination to do so who may have your answers Natalia . Many have not been afforded basic coping mechanisms at an early development age or are just very sensitive to outside influences in general as a valid point you make for others who seem to just find life harder for whatever other reasons. They may find it harder to move on from past hurts or lack confidence to do so .. the mind is a very a complex thing and can make or break you some days ,but occasionally we all end up with a good day now and again !

I think there are three main reasons: 1. It may be that they have been given a harder more difficult life - carry a disability, depression, loose a loved one, house and contents burn down, car is stollen, child dies, parents divorce, debilitating illness... For some people life and good things seem to land in their lap - rich, loving family, car given to them, very smart and talented at what ever they try, score a mansion for an amazing price, marry a beautiful person... Some people do just have it better than others. 2. In some situations, it can be a mental health issue that will affects how a person feels about their life. Life will just be harder for them. For them a small issue will seem like the hardest thing ever. 3. Personality traits - it can make a huge difference to how hard people feel their life is. A perfectionist will have a more stressful and busy life than a relaxed person. A pessimist will struggle more because they focus on the negatives instead of counting their blessings.

These "gods' call them Yahweh, Allah or, for English speakers God etc. are a myth invented by control-freaks who want to control everybody. There is no Proof of Existence. We are simply expected to believe they do.

Or do you believe that he "so loves thes children that he cannot near to be parted from them"? May br, and i would not wish this on anyone, you should ask your god to make one of your children, who have, as yet, done No Harm to anyone, suffer the agonies of the damnred whilst they die from Brain Cancer or, as is the case in so many parts of the world today, die in the agony of Starvation. This mythical being is supposed to be All Powerful, All Seeing, All Hearing yet he stands back and does nothing to stop any of it. How can anyone believe in such a monster?

We all experience different things from our first breath forward. Besides that, we are born with certain personality traits that come into play. Then add in your family dynamics, experiences and parental issues, and our minds react accordingly. In my case, I was born with depression and anxiety and had low self-esteem which was fed by the people around me. I never felt like a normal person as a child. I am not sure I felt love even though my parents loved me immensely. I never felt deserving because I was a fat kid which I think happened from PTSD of sexual abuse and the traumatic even at the age of three when my tonsils were removed in the doctor's office! Then two failed marriages and a nervous breakdown that left me unable to work brought a lot of negative feelings about myself and feeling like a failure. My family are all deceased, and I am alone to figure all of this out. I am now happier than ever with the help of God who made me realize that I'm as good as everyone else. It took me 70 years to realize I'm a good person and to treat myself well. Not having children does NOT make me a bad person regardless of what Trump's VP candidate says! I've come to far to let anyone make me feel like a loser for not being able to have children! He knows nothing about me so making a general statement like that is showing his ignorance. In my opinion, it's stamped on his forehead, "I'm an idiot."

Life has been rough at times, but it makes you stronger! I've been sick for a while, and out of money to go to the doctor. I have the money now, but my depression and anxiety won't let me go. It's so hard for me to walk that far to her office, and there's no one to take me. Life is tough with no one to help. I have a friend/caregiver, but she isn't allowed to take me to the doctor! It's so wrong. She can't even do it on her days off. Everyone I know is old and need help too! Thanks for your comment, Sheila. That means a lot to me, right now. I feel so lonely!

Maybe YOU THINK their life is harder. LIFE IS DIFFERENT. Been their done that. People think I had a hard life, being a single mum and no family. In a time when there was no child care, pensions, gov grants to help, You wanted to keep your child you worked and paid. BUT my life was blessed, it had its ups and downs, but I would not change one minute. You colour what you see and think, not other people. Blessings

He started working from home and it all went downhill. Thanks for responding.

Jehovah is not in control of the earth, but Satan, the devil, is, and has had control ever since Adam and Eve disobeyed His commandments. When Jesus returns, he will remove all signs of disobedient mankind from this earth and, after 1000 years, he will return rulership back to the one deserving, his Father, Jehovah God. You are blaming the wrong one. Blame SATAN, not Jehovah, for all of mankind's troubles!

A story of 3 sisters,all under 15 years old in Afghanistan who were forced to marry, All were forcefully beaten. One couldn't take it any longer , poured fat on herself, and set herself on fire. According to the Bible, when Jesus comes, our sins will be forgiven. The only sinner here is the men who did this. Step in God and save these poor girls

Try turning your reading to the positivity of the Bible, and please be at peace with this earth. It will end soon, as we know it. Revelation 21:4 reads, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."

It's what type of life they have been born into. Not everyone is rich, not everything is given to you. It's what you put into and work at.

Life is about learning lessons.

For a start, where is the line between compassion and capitalism? I would like to give away lots and help many but I have too much anxiety about my own ability to survive.

Some people advance out of the most horrible circumstances to achieve greatness. Some are given so much but cannot seem to advance. We all have different mindsets, gifts and deficits to work on. I think living one day at a time and doing your best, being the best you that you can be is what helps you get through life. Even the toughest people we may think we know have challenges that are hard so it is best to appreciate what you have and strive for your best. Easier said than done I know.

I know friends that seem to have a very difficult time. Some cope and some don't but challenges are what makes us grow. I have had my difficulties in life - no-one really escapes them. Keep on smiling if you can and keep loving.
