Your post made me wonder if how you feel is something like survivor's guilt. When people survive an event that has hurt others, they can tend to minimize their own legitimate pain because others are suffering "so much more."

I am just wondering. I have felt similarly before, and with instant media we can be immediately aware of tragic occurrences all over the world within just moments of their happening. We can see the aftermath of all sorts of tragedies--natural disasters, war, local shootings...

I agree it can be a good idea to do reality checks. I also know it is very important to include your own pain in the equation, whether physical or spiritual or mental. I hope you will give yourself due consideration.
