So I want an option on this scenario I was contemplating

Say person A has been kidnapped, locked away, and tortured ever since he was a two 년 old kid 의해 some crazy maniac. He is now twenty-two and grew up being used to this.

Now, person B gets brought in. Person B has lived a normal life, with a normal family and normal friends, and a full twenty-two years of a completely normal life. Suddenly, Person B is subjected to the exact same life Person A has been living since he was two as he gets locked away and tortured on a daily basis.

Given this situation would the past experiences of the two people change who is suffering more, 또는 is the idea of suffering an objective idea regardless of past occurrences?

Would Person A, due to his past and amount of time to get used to it, at that very moment be suffering less than Person B who had no time to?

I personally believe that suffering is, in fact, subjective. I believe this because suffering is a sensation - a feeling - an experience. Our feelings are determined 의해 what is currently happening, yes, but at the same time how we interpret them and the information we are taking in 의해 what we have experienced in the past. That added onto sensory adaptation, most of the torture would have become much 더 많이 monotonous and usual for Person A than Person B. Perhaps it would even become just as normal of a thing as eating 또는 going to school is for us. To them, the suffering would have likely become much 더 많이 dull that it was before and thus it wouldnt be too strong. However Person B, who knows everything he had 로스트 would have to take that into consideration for his suffering. He would loose all his close relations at the same time be subjected to a level of suffering he has likely never seen outside of 영화 and his imagination at most. Given this, it would be like the world is ending. So given the different perspectives of the same scenario, I feel that Person B would suffer 더 많이 as for him it would be 더 많이 like a major event while for Person A, it would appear almost like another 일 if not perhaps a good 일 since there is finally someone else down there with him

또는 in a 더 많이 common 또는 더 많이 realistic scenario, say there was someone who was struggled with depression and mental health throughout most of their memory and life VS someone who suddenly got hit with depression due to a family death 또는 something similar. I feel that while they may feel the same depression, the first person had a longer time to get used to it, assimilate, and learn how to manage and cope while the other person would be brought into a darker world than they are used to and find it much 더 많이 painful

A media example. Danganronpa, for those that know it. All the characters were put into the situation. Most of them freaked out however Togami notably didnt. Relating to his past and his high stakes competition with his siblings that he already went through as well as the constant high stakes competition he is used to, he did not care but rather found it fun. Meanwhile, other characters, such as Aoi who have yet to be exposed to such an environment, found it almost terrifying. This could probably also be attributed to personality and preferance differences rather than backstory and thus invalidate the example, but I feel such an example holds some value.

Short answer is yes, Person B would be suffering more.

It's pretty much the same basic idea for a scenario as one person being pampered and spoiled his whole life and the other having to constantly work for everything. So when that pampered person is put in the shoes of the hard worker, they find it much 더 많이 difficult. So they do the same work, but one person struggles more.

In another example, if two people got together with one having had alot of exposure to being asked out 또는 courted while the other had never fallen in 사랑 또는 even had any of those considerations before, I feel the emotions of the person who had not experienced it before would actually be factually stronger than the other. But that's the kind of thing that a whole other 질문 could be made from.

something shocking
unexpected
lack of strength
Person B can probably lose his mind because everything happened so quickly

I'll try to keep it brief as well.

I believe that they would share the exact same level of suffering. What is different, is the endurance they are going to display. On the outside, Person B will be notably much 더 많이 expressive than Person A. For the former, it is a whole new experience. Besides torture, what he/she has to deal is the fear of the unknown which only amplifies the tension that is being received 의해 torture. The heat of the moment can play a crucial role. That being said, I don't think that the latter could get used to something like that no matter how much time passes. The same applies for every living being. Of course, that is unless they are BROKEN. Not sure if that counts as living in the end. Depending on the kind of torture, someone might not even survive for that many years. Well, since Person A has, I believe he/she'll still provide much less of a reaction. 당신 could say that it is a form of adaption. 당신 cannot stop the pain but 당신 build the necessary resistance to keep going. Again, these are matters of one's Outer Self. When it comes to the Inner one, I don't believe there is any difference in the amount of suffering both of these people are undergoing !!!!

That is would agree with this. This is why I would choose them to be equal at times.

I don't think the two should really be compared honestly, because in what real-world examples we do have, actually trying to decide who was suffering 더 많이 is pretty damn impossible.
I mean, who had it worse, link[/b] 또는 link[/b]?

Both are horrific accounts of human depravity and all of the victims involved undoubtedly endured a lot of hardship and have had emotional scars that they'll never be fully able to get over. Deciding who suffered 더 많이 at a particular point is not only a tough call to make, but just downright unfair.

XD I know but I like the theorize stuff like this.

I realise that but for me it's just as impossible to theorise in a fictional scenario than a real one. I have just as difficult a time even starting to think who is suffering at a particular moment between person A and person B as I would for Genie 또는 the women Castro kidnapped. Like it's not even conceivable to me on a conceptual level.
