I think it may just be that the psychological impact of having money and losing it is far worse than never having it in the first place.
That's definitely part of it. It's like, when I was just scraping by (I did work full time but was paying a lot in rent and food and taxes etc) the idea of being one paycheck away from the street really didn't bother me. Now, I feel like I've become dependent on the assumption of having money and needing more, more more of it just to feel safe somehow.
