I do see what you're saying; largely, I hope this to help me just be aware of I'm complaining a lot.
And, for me, it's largely 'am I complaining and not doing anything about it if I can, or am I complaining to let off steam _and_ doing what I can about it'. I have no sense at all of how much, when, or why I complain. So, I'm hoping this to help my attention to figure that out.
(I do see 'talking things out' & 'letting off steam' as different from 'complaining'. Complaining feels like... low level background noise, distracting, and not useful, in my head. *shrug* As always, you milage may of course vary!)
