The two worst periods in my life (at least that's one way of looking at it) concerned literally life-threatening medical emergencies requiring immediate hospitalization and expensive exotic treatment for months. Those periods of critical intensive care were the most creative and spiritually enlightening
experiences I've ever had! Since then, I've been chasing the mental state inside those physical issues just below my subconscious or superconscious reality and bring it up to a conscious level. The bible even has a verse for it: "when I'm
weak, then I'm strong.” (2 Cor. 12:9) But I like Nietzsche's view better "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger." (Twilight of the Idols) SIDEBAR: I'm thinking about writing a book about politicians: "Twilight of the Idle".... but that's off the subject. LOL

Not really off-subject since some of them are so busy creating stuff for the rest of us to deal with!
