I would expect anyone to complain about something from time to time.. That is perfectly normal and there are times in life where the world seems a little bit darker and support and comfort are needed but as my husband likes to frequently say, "People have about 15 minutes of time and energy and empathy and sympathy to give away and then they must move on and deal with their own crap".
