My life is a relentless tide of trauma upon trauma, with every painful memory vividly replayed by hyperthymesia. In the face of such overwhelming suffering, compounded by mental health crises and misdiagnosis, I sought meaning in the Tzadikim mythology—the idea that hidden righteous individuals sustain the world through their pain. What began as a desperate comfort, however, soon ignited a fierce, righteous indignation. This essay explores how personal anguish challenges spiritual notions of suffering, demanding recognition, justice, and a world that finally acknowledges its share of the burden.
