trials and tribulations / aberrations and confusions
This is, of course, an allusion to German literature. The English title of Fontane's work (Irrungen, Wirrungen) is "Trials and Tribulations".
Depending on your overall context, you might be able to use it, although I don't think that the literary allusion would be quite as obvious as it is in German.
...without hiding / suppressing / concealing the trials and tribulations / aberrations and confusions ....
