I relate to so many of these that I couldn't cite them all in a comment. I wanted to share my thoughts on "Lack of empathy" This is the "suck it up" mentality. There is a difference between lack of empathy and the ability to channel pain into a resource. It's related to the 'Run toward the thing that scares you" mentality. People who have experienced a lot of pain naturally have developed a higher tolerance to pain. This can come through as a lack of empathy. Those who have experienced lots of pain have also learned to channel it into power. That can also come across as a lack of empathy. It could simply be that they expect others to channel the pain the same way.
