I absolutely hate it when people tell me
“That sucks.” When I got back to school and told people what I was dealing with, the most common response was “That sucks.” I hate hearing that!!!! I don’t need anyone to tell me that it sucks, I already know that, and I try to have a good attitude about my recovery instead of being negative all the time. Being negative only makes you feel worse! My mentality about my recovery and what I told people is that I have ups and downs every day. When I tell people about how I’m doing, I don’t want them to tell me something that isn’t uplifting. Telling me “that sucks” is so negative and only makes me have a bad attitude. It makes me want to punch them and tell them to shut up. If you know someone dealing with an injury, please do not tell them that it sucks!!!
