Yeah -- I think focusing on this helps me to treat other people with problems as a 'person first.' For example, one of my friends has M.S., and for awhile I was bringing it up a lot in reference to how she's doing. Now I realized that I was being a big shmoe and just let her tell me if something is M.S.-related or not. I mean, _anyone_ can have a bad day regardless of what else is going on in life.
I think I'll use your line of viewing mine as a succesfully treated case on my friend and see what happens.
