How Are You Today?? Be Honest!
A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know sometimes when people ask "how are you?", it can be hard to be open and honest with them because we have been taught to hide our true feelings because people don't really care.

Well, I'm here to say that I CARE. So, how are you today? Accomplished a task? Let me celebrate with you. Need support or someone to talk to? I'm here. Feel free ad add/message me.

My back has gotten from bad to severe within the past 5 months. and the pain i was told is like bone on bone. They dont seem to have any way to fix this and my options are like pain pills and blocks. I have been avoiding sitting and using ice pack and heat the past few days.

Rob Mac, I said those exact words...I remember one time one of my co-workers above me ask...I said do you really want to know or are you being polite!?! He did not know how to respond, I said you can not handle my truth. So I am hanging in there 🙏💚😔🕊💚🙏 He never again asked how my day was...because truth behold every one all ready knew I was having a....may all have a peaceful day ✨️

I just tell people that "I'm as good as I'm going to get" because most people are not really asking to know they are just asking to be polite. If you answer it truthfully they are not prepared for it. And will not ask again...lol

I always lie when people ask.
I've attempted to "open up" and say the truth and as I thought, people still don't care.😅
but yes, I'm not ok. I've been fighting through 7 years of severe depression ,stress and dissociation.
My physical pain started because of it all.
Thanks for asking though. x
