"Get Over It!!!"

It is and has been my experience for individuals such as family, friends, ministers and co-workers to tell me to "get over it". This is a heartless "order" given to someone living with a trauma, facing hardships and are hurting. Please do not let this "get over it" mentality effect and depress you more. Hold your head up, look them straight in the face and say something like "Don't EVER order me to get over it!' Hopefully, that person will think twice before they say it to someone else. Also, if you hear someone telling someone else this--and they aren't joking--maybe you can stand up for that person.
