No, you can’t ‘just get over it’—Here are 6 psychologist-approved things to do instead:
“This common phrase can minimize a person’s struggle by insinuating overreacting [is taking place],” Dr. Hafeez says. Think about it: If you pour your heart out to a friend, and they tell you to just get over it, you'd probably feel disregarded, as if they're not registering your issues as serious or worth their time. This can, in effect, stop you from moving through your emotions and effectively healing because the messaging is that there's no problem to get over.
That said, it's not necessarily coming from a place of malice or an intention to make you feel disregarded. Dr. Hafeez says folks generally aren'tto minimize what you’re going through. Typically, they’re suggesting you to get over it for two reasons: they care about you and don’t want to see you agonizing over a given situation, or doing so helps them cope with their own stress about what you’re going through.
