One that comes to mind for me: “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is not always true. Maybe even only half the time! Are there any phrases you tend to hear and shake your head at?

    For me it turned me into a depressed person who no longer feels emotion the way I did before. I’m 99% numb. The other 1% is manic attacks.

      Shout out to my ex who started on #2 recently, as people keep telling me.

      Maybe they got therapy and will be a better person this time. Maybe #2 will be the person they need. Whatever. Peace.✌🏽

      Same. But in a way, it did kill me, so maybe that’s why I’m not getting stronger.

        I can relate. My experience completely changed my personality.

        I definitely look at the pre-depression version of myself and see a completely different person.
