I gatekeep my own misery with perspective.

Knowing that there's billions of people having a far worse moment/day/life keeps me intact. I have nothing to complain about.

This one has never helped me. It just has me wanting to give up so much more, overwhelmed by the pain and suffering of others along with my own.
