What NOT To Say To A Friend In Crisis


AUGUST 7, 2013 WITH 1,319 NOTES ± PERMALINK

What NOT To Say To A Friend In Crisis

It’s great to support a friend through a hard time. Being there for them, and helping them talk through it is a wonderful way to help them heal. But there are certain things that you should avoid saying if you want to keep from doing more harm than good:
 
·        “It could be a lot worse”. Of course any situation could always be a lot worse, but no one wants to hear this. Don’t downplay what they are going through by telling them that other people have it harder or that their situation isn’t all that bad. When you are upset about something it feels rotten, so just let them wallow and have their moment.
·        “There are plenty of other fish in the sea”. No one wants to hear this cliché after a breakup. Of course there are other people out there, but at the time they aren’t interested in thinking about it. Dating other people and the idea of getting back out there seems overwhelming, and it’s the last thing on their mind. They are also grieving the loss of their relationship, so give them time to do that before you start suggesting that they date other people.
·        “I know exactly how you feel”. Unless you’ve been through an identical situation, you don’t know how they feel, so don’t tell them that you do. If you can’t relate to what they’re going through just say something like, “I can only imagine how upset you must be”. Or, “I wish I knew what to say to make you feel better”. Don’t pretend that you have all the answers if you don’t.
·        “That reminds me of this thing that happened to me…”. This is not about you, so stop yourself before you launch into stories about yourself and your own experiences. Don’t turn the situation into a chance to talk about yourself. Instead, try listening to their feelings rather than doing so much talking.
·        “Hang in there”. You mean well when you say this but it’s annoying to hear when you’re going though a hard time. It sounds like you’re just trying to placate them and it doesn’t really mean anything, because they have no choice but to hang in there. Try saying something less patronizing and less generic, like, “I know you’ll get through this, and I’ll be there to help you however I can”.
·        “That happened to a friend of mine and she died/ended up alone forever/had a traumatic experience”. If something bad happens to someone, resist the urge to tell them horror stories about similar things happening to other people. If someone is sick, don’t tell them how your neighbor was hospitalized for months with the same thing only to die a slow and painful death. People feel the need to share gory details with people who are going through a hard time, and it’s unnecessary and only makes the other person feel worse. Try to be uplifting instead.

What am I thinking?

I can't think of anything. Or, I'm thinking too fast that I can't distinguish all the ideas running inside my head. Just how a number of cars super speed through highways making it appear nothing's there. My head is aching. Music isn't helping in organizing my thoughts. It even makes harder to type these words out of the hundreds of thousands of letters pushing and colliding.  Short breaths. My heart beat speed is declining.
What was I thinking that lead to this?
First, that movie Bakit hindi ka crush ng crush mo?. During a movie, a romantic movie to be specific, I usually think of a certain person, loved one, admired one, or a simple crush but there was none. When the movie ended, I just realized even more that something is wrong with me. A part of my mind is rejecting the concept of love. I seemingly don't want to love, don't want love. Love has sadly been associated to pain, mine or others, hatred, that bitter aftertaste, and bad shitty endings.
When I was a kid, growing up from a messed up house, made me wish for a one true love, fairy tale-ish. But things have happened. I've been hurt bad near emotional paralysis the moment I trusted a person. And when I tried to give a chance to another person to change my ill perspective, I've been blamed to even giving a chance without a promise of fruitful ending. I've been hurt and I have hurt. I don't see any good in that, any good in love. People leave. I might leave. They will hurt me. I will hurt them.
As much as my faith contests to this. If truly, and I know surely, that love is good because love is a gift. Then, does that make me the negative sign multiplied to the positive love that produces a negative product.
..Wait what?
Love is insignificant right now. Should be. My thesis. My special project. Nothing is progressing. What do I do? Do I learn ASP.Net? or maybe C#? or should I fix our documentation.. or should I aimlessly start coding since we have a kind-of template.
My mind starts hurting again. I feel like crying. Maybe this would ease the pain. Lord, please help me. But, If I cry, does that bring my old depressed self again. I don't want to be a lost cause. I want to do something. But which should I fix first? Should I start what is essential - my IT special project, or do I hit what is emotionally special - my love issues. But my issues with love itself is telling me to don't think about it. That it's not worthy spending a drop of energy. Should I watch an encouraging movie to ease this madness.
I should filter my thoughts..
