When you experience psychological pain, it means some condition of your life isn't right and you need to take steps to change it

And there are many, and almost none of them can be changed.

Not all conditions of your life are external. Read Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. The man found ways to alter the conditions of his life from within a concentration camp.
