| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients RT @burtrosen: T1: T1: every person is unique and needs to be treated as an individual, there is no one size fits all #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T1 "Surely you can eat just a few bites." No. No, I can't. #Gastroparesis #CureGP #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta T1 "You're so brave." No, I'm not. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @katie5280 @patientchat @wegohealth Really?! That's so exciting! Good luck 🍀 #PatientChat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T1 - Cancer happened for a reason... It's an opportunity for enlightenment...so on and so on... #patientchat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 T1 I'm on crutches just for the attention. #PatientChat |
| Two Faces of MS 💋 @TwoFacesofMS @patientchat T1: it could be worse #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint @AnnePolta Oh yes, the you're so brave talk...not helpful to me. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat MT @TwoFacesofMS #patientchat T1: it could be worse |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T1: "But you have a good life." "What are you depressed about" "everyone gets exhausted." "You should practice gratitude." #patientchat |
 | Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat T1. Your heart problems are all nerves |
| Katie @katie5280 @patientchat T1:So much but generally along the lines of how I deserve to get what I have or deserve 2 die based on treatment choices. #patientchat #rude |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen why is there such a lack of understanding of #chronicillness? #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T1: "calm down/relax/chill out". "Others have it so much worse". "You're using your illness as a crutch" "Just try harder". #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T1 So-n-so has that disease & they recovered just fine #PatientChat https://t.co/m6dO9XvnxZ |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T1: "With a positive attitude and mind, you'll beat this"…uhh what?! #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen @katie5280 @patientchat whoever told you that is a class A jerk! #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T1 You can't be that bad, you don't look like you've had a bad stroke #PatientChat https://t.co/m6dO9XvnxZ |
| Katie @katie5280 @TwoFacesofMS @patientchat Wow! Just curious, what is your response to that? #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint You're over it by now aren't you? If not, why not? #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat Thanks all for sharing. Topic 2 (T2:) coming up... https://t.co/PB3ncDYGc4 #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint @JotallyWalksome @NancysPoint @AnnePolta Agree completely. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T1 Well at least #Thyroid cancer is the good cancer to get #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T1 "Well, you will be okay. It just takes time." Chronic. It's chronic with no cure -- yet. #Gastroparesis #CureGP #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta Ah yes, the tyranny of positive thinking. This one always burns my bacon. #patientchat https://t.co/CkvrI1ifRN |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T1: "Are u still depressed?" "You're a pawn of the dr/med/therapy system"... "Just pray about it" <- like I need an exorcism #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen is anyone else reading these responses and getting really angry and agitated? the lack of #empathy is so sad! #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @Crohnoid Chuffed is? happy excited ? 😊 #patientchat |
| Inspire @InspireIsHealth RT @mayanorthen: T1: T1: "Are u still depressed?" "You're a pawn of the dr/med/therapy system"... "Just pray about it" <- like I need an exorcism #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 Yeah - the good cancer thing is just so obnoxious. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @Crohnoid Yes my endocrinologist, radiologists & nurses #PatientChat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint Indeed! RT @btrfly12: Yeah - the good cancer thing is just so obnoxious. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @Crohnoid I love new words ✨ #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @AnnePolta Right? All along I could have just been more optimistic and grateful and I've have beaten genetics! Who knew? (obvious sarcasm) #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @burtrosen: is anyone else reading these responses and getting really angry and agitated? the lack of #empathy is so sad! #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat T2: Why do you think these awkward conversations are so common? Why do we find it so hard to communicate about illness? #patientchat |
| Alert1 Medical Alert @Alert1MedAlert Empathy and understanding for a situation is so important! #patientchat https://t.co/OQEd5tegdr |
| Katie @katie5280 @burtrosen @patientchat It's been from multiple people! Guess when you don't know what to day, you go with the crude route! Lol! #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat society has an unspoken rule that all must be positive |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T2: I think people feel awkward and don't know what to say so they just blurt out the first thing that comes to mind #patientchat |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients RT @MaryOCMack: #patientchat society has an unspoken rule that all must be positive |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat illness isn't positive |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @patientchat: T2: T2: Why do you think these awkward conversations are so common? Why do we find it so hard to communicate about illness? #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T2 Great questions. Truth telling often makes others uncomfortable. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T2: I think people are subconsciously building up mental barriers so they can know it won't happen to them. Mental fallacies. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @burtrosen It truly is & for over 2 decades now ✨ #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @Alert1MedAlert Yeah I had to stop listing them lol. I could write a book. #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta T2 Many people genuinely don't know what to say. They're trying to be kind and end up being clumsy. #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen T2: lots of chronic illness can't be "seen" couple that with a lack of understanding and #emapthy and you get stupid comments #patientchat |
| Alert1 Medical Alert @Alert1MedAlert Very much so. That's why awareness and advocacy is needed. #patientchat https://t.co/4LeMA0JKgg |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T2 No one wants to hear anything other than success stories -- overcoming. They fail to see the small daily battles we overcome #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T2 - Difficult conversations are just that, difficult. Still need to have them tho. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T2: so many taboo's and pressure on putting forth your best face means a culture that can't talk about struggle :( #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack RT @burtrosen: T2: T2: lots of chronic illness can't be "seen" couple that with a lack of understanding and #emapthy and you get stupid comments #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @melissarvh Isn't that the truth?! #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: so many taboo's and pressure on putting forth your best face means a culture that can't talk about struggle :( #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: so many taboo's and pressure on putting forth your best face means a culture that can't talk about struggle :( #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T2: In some cases, they're *trying* to help, w/o experience/knowledge. Alternatively, they're ignorantly stigmatizing. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T2: Not all stories are "inspirational" but all stories matter. #patientchat |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: Not all stories are "inspirational" but all stories matter. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T2: Oh yeah, some people just can't help but go into "fix it" mode when something hard comes up. #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: Not all stories are "inspirational" but all stories matter. #patientchat |
| Alert1 Medical Alert @Alert1MedAlert @mayanorthen We believe it! It must have been hard to tune them out. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @btrfly12 Why is it, if we talk about struggle we're immediately called out as looking for attention? #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh RT @lisadbudzinski: @btrfly12 Why is it, if we talk about struggle we're immediately called out as looking for attention? #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T2 I think truth in itself is inspirational. Perhaps sounds corny, but... #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @melissarvh Yes! I routinely try to blog when I'm feeling awful I want people to really know what it is like inside anxious, depressed mind #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen @btrfly12 especially for things people don't understand #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @lisadbudzinski: @btrfly12 Why is it, if we talk about struggle we're immediately called out as looking for attention? #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @NancysPoint: T2 I think truth in itself is inspirational. Perhaps sounds corny, but... #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen This one makes me SO mad. And makes me realize that person probably doesn't want to understand. #patientchat https://t.co/VvNfUMjCVV |
| Alert1 Medical Alert @Alert1MedAlert Learning how to have difficult conversations about sensitive/serious topics isn't taught #patientchat https://t.co/mRce8wRLiI |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T2 I think people sometimes don't know what to say & fall back on tired cliches. They mean well but don't know how to handle it #patientchat |
| Katie @katie5280 @patientchat T2: I think that people don’t know what to say, so they either stay silent or say something inappropriate. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat Topic 3 (T3:) coming up... https://t.co/PB3ncDYGc4 #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh RT @mayanorthen: @melissarvh Yes! I routinely try to blog when I'm feeling awful I want people to really know what it is like inside anxious, depressed mind #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta @JotallyWalksome Proof that many people truly want to learn how to do this better. #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen @JotallyWalksome @btrfly12 one thing i've learned in 20 yrs of marriage is to just shut up and listen some times, fixers have a tough time with that #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T2 Is it a natural human trait to compare with another situation or try to give cureable solutions? #patientchat |
| Katie @katie5280 @patientchat T2: I think it’s so hard to communicate because for so long the culture has been to be hush hush about it. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat T3: What are some of the language traps surrounding illness? What terms do you hate to hear from others and the media? #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @melissarvh I truly believe the majority really do mean well ✨ #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T2: also think there's a fine line btwn empathy & selfishness. Ppl try to empathize but can't, & so becomes about them, not u #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat even in doctor's appts I often downplay complaints |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @MaryOCMack: #patientchat even in doctor's appts I often downplay complaints |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T3: Warrior words like fighter/battle/strong/brave are nice & all, but what if you don't want to be "tough" all of the time #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen @lisadbudzinski @melissarvh you're right, its just awkward and people don't like living in awkward #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T3 There are so many...but the war metaphors really grate on my nerves. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T3: "Prevention" is a word that is rarely appropriate. Risk reduction is often a much more accurate and less stigmatizing term. #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta T2 Trite cultural narratives that reduce us to victims/heroes, victory or loss of a "battle." No room for real stories. #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @lisadbudzinski I think ppl want to help (some) but haven't experienced it. So they try to do their best, & it "flops". <-being nice. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @burtrosen @melissarvh Awkward is a great word for it ✨ #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T3: I never want to read in media that someone "lost their battle" - just odious to me. #patientchat |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients RT @btrfly12: T3: T3: "Prevention" is a word that is rarely appropriate. Risk reduction is often a much more accurate and less stigmatizing term. #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen @mayanorthen @lisadbudzinski Benefit of the doubt is important but tough after a while #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T3 "Lost" her battle. Well, we all "lose" eventually. No one is immortal. It is not a battle; it is just life & illness. #patientchat |
 | CP Nerve Center @Cpnervecenter #patientchat Hi all. I'M LATE-Sorry. Hi to my partner @lisadbudzinski |
| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients RT @melissarvh: T3 "Lost" her battle. Well, we all "lose" eventually. No one is immortal. It is not a battle; it is just life & illness. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T3 "well this happened for a reason. There must be something you need to learn this point in your life" #patientchat |
| Two Faces of MS 💋 @TwoFacesofMS @patientchat T2: personally I find no issues discussing, professionally still huge stigmas #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T3: If it's really an advocate, it rarely bothers me bc they're trying to help, & three are only so many applicable words. #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T3 - I loathe the implication illness is a gift, opportunity of some sort to reinvent yourself. #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat God has a plan for you |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat because someone survived. |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @Cpnervecenter Hey partner!! 👋 Everyone, meet my partner bbhomebody!! #patientchat |
| Alert1 Medical Alert @Alert1MedAlert Good point #patientchat https://t.co/TX1mn5VDeW |
 | Trisha Bundy @bundytr5 RT @burtrosen: T2: T2: lots of chronic illness can't be "seen" couple that with a lack of understanding and #emapthy and you get stupid comments #patientchat |
 | Annie @Anniefromkansas For people to assume your blood glucose levels are out of control bc you're doing something wrong with diet or exercise. #patientchat |
| Trisha Bundy @bundytr5 RT @melissarvh: T2 No one wants to hear anything other than success stories -- overcoming. They fail to see the small daily battles we overcome #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta T3 Not just vocab. but also tone -- the undertone of pity or "wow, isn't this person amazing." Don't dehumanize me. #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T3- "Lost her/his battle" is at the top of my list of irritating phrases heard over and over. Words matter. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T3: The brave/hero talk makes me uncomfortable too. Hard to pin down the why.... #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @burtrosen @mayanorthen Definitely on both 😉 #patientchat |
| Trisha Bundy @bundytr5 RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: so many taboo's and pressure on putting forth your best face means a culture that can't talk about struggle :( #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski RT @patientchat: T3: T3: What are some of the language traps surrounding illness? What terms do you hate to hear from others and the media? #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T3 "God gives His strongest warriors the toughest battles." #Gastroparesis patients must be pretty freaking amazing, then. #patientchat |
| Two Faces of MS 💋 @TwoFacesofMS @patientchat T2: "cure" gets tossed around like it's so simple, better treatments with less side effects more realistic #patientchat |
 | Mary @marycray @CleClinicMD The challenge now is to practice healthcare as the art of making what appears to be impossible possible. #ptexp #PESummit #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T3: I think there is a lot of talk and terms that can lead to blaming oneself or others assuming you are to blame. #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T3: But if it's not an advocate, basically any mental health term that's become common but is not OK. i.e crazy. #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta I see life differently after cancer but it came at a price. So no, it wasn't a "gift." #patientchat https://t.co/WoPhdXy0Ot |
| Two Faces of MS 💋 @TwoFacesofMS @katie5280 @patientchat "Sure it can always be worse, but today this is my reality" #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @JotallyWalksome Apparently I need to learn DNA and genomes 😄 #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 CURE!!! That's the term other than "prevention" that really gets to me and that is rarely the most appropriate thing to say. #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T3: Also as a MH advocate, when discussing suicide, the word "committed". Crimes and Sins are committed. Suicide is neither. #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint @AnnePolta Definitely no gift for me either. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 Every journalist and writer should follow @afspnational media guidelines for covering suicides. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat Topic 4 (T4:) coming up... #patientchat |
| SPBOC Foundation @SPBOCF RT @btrfly12: CURE!!! That's the term other than "prevention" that really gets to me and that is rarely the most appropriate thing to say. #patientchat |
| Annie @Anniefromkansas People who equate chronic pain, even with "legitimate" diagnosis, with laziness or being a "freeloader". #patientchat |
| Katie @katie5280 @patientchat T3: It bothers me how the media sometimes portrays stage 4 cancer. Stage 4 doesn’t always mean death or metastasis #patientchat |
| SPBOC Foundation @SPBOCF RT @btrfly12: T2: T2: Not all stories are "inspirational" but all stories matter. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat T4: What things have people said to you that you found truly supportive and helpful? #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T4 "What can I do to help?" is 1 of the most supportive phrases I've heard. Also, "Do you want company?" Leaves me in control. #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski RT @btrfly12: Every journalist and writer should follow @afspnational media guidelines for covering suicides. #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @patientchat: T4: T4: What things have people said to you that you found truly supportive and helpful? #patientchat |

| Patient Empowerment Network @power4patients T4: Honesty - When they admit to not knowing what to say b/c all I really wanted was for them to just be there #patientchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski T4 It's OK to have really bad days #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @power4patients: T4: T4: Honesty - When they admit to not knowing what to say b/c all I really wanted was for them to just be there #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @lisadbudzinski: T4 It's OK to have really bad days #patientchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T4: Sometimes, no words. Holding me when I break down w/depression. Taking care of things when anxiety is overwhelming. #patientchat |
 | Natalie 🦓 @_Nataliea Anything over-dramatic (my condition periodically ends up on "weirdest conditions ever!!!!" Lists. Awkwardness.) #patientchat https://t.co/U0rwl8nWvn |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat when do you usually take a nap? |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T4 Instead of, "It's only hair" I liked "I'm sorry you're losing your hair" or "I'm sorry this is happening" sort of comment. #patientchat |
| Annie @Anniefromkansas "It's just positive thoughts or mind over matter." In real life, sometimes "matter" wins. #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T4 Any actions (or words) truly seeking to provide what I want/need -- and not what they THINK I need -- are most appreciated! #patientchat |
 | Whitney Petit @CfEpilepsy It's not too late to join #patientchat |
| CP Nerve Center @Cpnervecenter #patientchat T4 Ask me "What do you need?" Then I can honesty tell you. |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen 1000x this!! One of the most difficult things ppl can say is to admit they don't understand but will help. Means so much. #patientchat https://t.co/aALKqtlURp |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @power4patients I really respected the 2 Drs who were honest by telling me my conditions were way beyond their help #patientchat |
| Nancy's Point @NancysPoint T4 Hard to beat, "I'm here for you." #patientchat |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh RT @lisadbudzinski: @power4patients I really respected the 2 Drs who were honest by telling me my conditions were way beyond their help #patientchat |
| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 I think the brave/hero stuff makes it seem like you have super powers and so downplays how hard it really is, daily struggles #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat how many bags of groceries are in the trunk? Where should I put them? |
| Whitney Petit @CfEpilepsy RT @patientchat: T3: T3: What are some of the language traps surrounding illness? What terms do you hate to hear from others and the media? #patientchat |
| burtrosen 🟦 @burtrosen T4: what you're going through is ok and normal, u should feel the way u feel, not the way others tell u how u should feel #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat T4 |
| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh @lisadbudzinski @power4patients Oh, honesty is greatly appreciated! So right, Ms. Lisa! #patientchat |

| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T5 "It's probably just stress." Yes, well, relieving my symptoms would relieve some of my stress. How about we work on that? #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat dismissive statements that end communication |
| Annie @Anniefromkansas Like anyone else in life I have good days & bad days. Usually more good but don't expect "Pollyanna" every day. #patientchat |
| Anne Polta @AnnePolta T4 What really helped me were the people who just listened without being judgmental or feeling they had to fix the situation. #patientchat |
 | Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @healthadvoc_ca I can tell you from a policy POV, the term is usually jurisdiction & service provided-specific. There are actually some regs #patientchat |

| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh T5 "In the meantime, try to eat a little more." #Gastroparesis #CureGP #patientchat |

| Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RT @Crohnoid: |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba T5 IMHO care/tx needs to be personal & has to address the whole personal. Words said to generalize a person's dx is ill-advised #patientchat |

| Melissa VanHouten @melissarvh @lisadbudzinski Exactly, Ms. Lisa! "Shouldn't" is irrelevant. Either this is or you need to find the new thing that is. #patientchat |
| Patient Chat @patientchat Time to start sharing closing thoughts (CT) on what you learned, were reminded of or can implement. Start your tweet w/ CT: #patientchat |
| CP Nerve Center @Cpnervecenter #patientchat T5-Don't need a fresh new doctor asking , "But have u tried this?" We're not pain newbies. We know our Conditions inside & out |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen T5: Not considering how medications (not for my mood cycling) could affect my mentalhealth #patientchat |
| Mary MACK @MaryOCMack #patientchat it's a team, so adversarial behaviors are confusing to me |
