Hi everyone, I may have posted this before but am curious as to whether any of you get irritated by people who post these overly upbeat FB posts. Like "You were not given a bad life, you choose to have a good or bad life" or "everyone comes into the world with the same ingredients--make a beautiful cake!"
ARUGH. We were Not all given the same ingredients. Some of us, like people with bipolar disorder or cerebral palsy, came into the world with serious difficulties. Yes, we can work hard to deal with these things but it is Not as easy as making a cake is for a master baker. I deal w/this by "hiding" those posts so I don't have to see them. But I have one friend, a nice older woman who does hypnotic therapy, who posts 8 or 10 of those kinds of things every day.
Sigh! Thanks for listening
