Hi,
I am fortunate to not have had any severe illnesses besides some chronic depression which has never been clinical or too deep. So how do I respond when someone who is always ill, is always telling me the lastest symptoms, medications, pains, etc. It seems to be that this person focuses on illness so it becomes a reality. Any tips on what to say to this person as she also claims to be happy. It almost feels like a competition. Like no one could possibly have been through as much as me. Am I just being heartless?
peace,
Prosperity
