Things NOT to say to someone with a chronic illness:

.....but you don't LOOK sick!
.....everybody gets tired.
.....you're just having a bad day.
.....it must be nice not having to go to work every day.
.....i wish i had time to take a nap!
.....you'd feel better if you just got out more.
.....you're just getting older.
.....you'd feel better if you just got more exercise.
.....it can't be all that bad!
.....it's all just in your head.
.....you're just depressed.
.....there are people worse off than you!
.....you'll just have to tough it out.
.....maybe you need to pray more.
.....you just need to have a more positive attitude.
.....this too shall pass!
