You don’t look like you feel good.

i hate this. "are you okay?"...."you don't look like you feel good". no, actually i am not okay. i don't feel good. But, I am desperately trying to not be dying of something...trying to convince myself that I am okay....trying to smile. Thanks for being perceptive. i appreciate your gift of tact. grrrr

    So true! I've been getting told a lot lately that I look tired. After the umpteenth time of being told that, gotta start wondering. do I look as crappy as I feel??? Ugh!

      I've been told this too. I try to put makeup on and look vibrant but my eyes look tired or weak and the comments don't help. UGH!! I wish folk would just stop saying that! Even when I feel good, they still look tired. Whatever! I guess my eyes changed the same morning I woke up and saw cellulite in my legs and thought how did this happen overnight? My legs was pretty 😦 Dang Menopause!!!

    I know exactly what you mean! I looked in the mirror the other day and I actually got scared at what I saw. I was white as a sheet, my eyes looked weird, I was shocked. When did this happen? Yet I get up every day and go to work. I try to convince myself and everyone else that I am alright. Can't wait for the end of this!

    No sh*#, right?! We don't look or feel good! Was at the pharmacy and the little twerp at the counter said, "Looks like someone has a cold." I thought 'oh...if only you knew!' I am extremely fed up more than usual today, and it's really getting to me. 😡

    One day, some unlucky person will be the one to hear me reply "No, I am not ok!" They'll probably run when they realize what kind of meltdown is coming.
