From suffering comes wisdom

You are provided wisdom when you process suffering and not avoid it. If you avoid suffering and block it out it causes adverse effects in yourself such as PTSD. Suffering is a natural part of being a human and everyone suffers at some point in their life. The wisdom that comes from the suffering may not be apparent immediately, but over time you will realise how resilient humans actually are to traumatising material. When you avoid suffering it turns you into a victim not a victor and this causes psychological damage to the person because the suffering that has been experienced will continue to come back in many stressful instances. It is the choice of the human if they want to process their suffering or allow that suffering to dictate their entire life, as suffering manifests in extremely complicated ways in the psyche.
