HG was born with a disfigurement. So instead of learning to live with it like a well-adjusted person would, he has to go thru a life of whining to the wind. Hell, even the Elephant Man handled it better than HG who has been on one long screech against the world in the form of being on perpetual Annoyance Mode.
HG needs to look to the Elephant Man as a role model and learn to live with the cards God dealt him.
