Toxic Positivity
- “You’ll get over it!”
- “Other people have it worse!”
- “Just stay positive!”
- “Don’t worry, be happy!”
Real Empathy
- “It will feel better eventually, but I know things are hard rightnow.”
- “Just because someone else has it worse doesn’t make your pain hurt any less.”
- “It’s normal to feel upset right now.”
- “Your emotions can’t just be switched on and off. Take the time you need to work through them.”
