Not good.
I feel like crapola.
All I want to do is sleep.
This sucks.
My life is falling apart.
I’m in huge, big-time, pain.
My hands hurt.
My head hurts.
My back hurts.
I’m not sleeping really well.
My whole body hurts.
Every bone in my body hurts.
I ache.
I’m tired.
This disease is destroying my life.
I feel horrible.
I can’t seem to get out of bed.
I can’t concentrate really well today.
What did you say?
After a while, no one wants to hear it anymore.
Let me clue you in on a little fact.
After a while, we don’t want to say it anymore either.
So we say:
I’m okay.
Or we fake a smile.
I’m just a little tired.
Or we fake a smile.
It could be worse.
Or we fake a smile.
Today’s not a really good day.
Or we fake a smile.
Or we burst into tears.
And we still try to fake a smile.
Or better yet….we just don’t say anything.
We sugarcoat it.
