I would agree with that, but from what I understand theking's situation is not typical. I take him at his word when it comes to his injuries and if you live a life filled with pain you do whatever it takes to get through the day. I have been lucky enough to not have anything like that happen to me, but I have known people who have suffered major injuries and not only causes you physical problems it fucks with your head in a serious way. When ever hour of every day is a struggle, just finding some happiness can be a major chore and if that happiness comes in the form of remembering your past and the people/places/events from it, then so be it.
