Useless suffering can't be separated from useless resistance. The more you resist something, the more you suffer, believing that somehow or other your resistance to what you don't want to do (or be) is going to separate you or liberate you from the thing you don't want.

Resisting its own conclusions, all the while wishing things could be different, is a form of safety to the sleeping mind because this allows it to rest within the continuation of the known, even as it can't stand being there!...
