When entrepreneur peer groups focus only on business wins while ignoring personal costs

My startup cohort from our accelerator program still meets quarterly and everyone talks about their growth metrics and fundraising wins, but no one mentions the mental health cost or relationship strain or the nights when you question everything. I want to bring up the harder stuff but I'm worried it'll make me seem like I'm not handling the pressure as well as everyone else.
