You are right, that there is no "winning" only fighting to stay in the game.
A few years ago I was researching diseases that could be causing my type of pain. Neuropathy was something I knew I did not have, but reading about it gave me a bit of confidence. It was one of the few chronic pain issues I deemed clearly "worse off than me" and the fact there were people without it out there leading productive lives gave me a lot of encouragement that I could do it myself.
