Part of being a good friend is gently pointing out denial. The next time you talk to someone who’s stuck in suffering, ask them:

1. “Maybe it will go away.” Are you willing to risk that it won’t?
2.  ”It comes and goes.” Why wait until it’s a constant problem?
3. “It’s not that bad!” Compared to what?
4. “It only hurts when I…” Why live your life with limits that most other people don’t have?
5. “I don’t want to know.” What you don’t know CAN hurt you.
6. “I know what my problem is, it’s…” What is your solution?
7. “I was told I’ve got to live with it.” Don’t give up on yourself.

Don’t let this kind of thinking put your loved ones’ health at risk! It’s never too late to change someone’s mind. You just might save their life!
