Do People That Are Always Sharing Their Health Issues Bother You?

Not necessarily in person per say, but those like on Facebook who it seems never have anything Good they want to share and talk about. Or one minute they are talking about they were at a Event talking and sharing about their Pain Cream lotion they sell, and CBD oils they sell but they are only using the CBD oils as well as the many Tried and true Meds like Prednisone, etc just because they are afraid to get off damaging drugs like that.
I have a friend of mine, and Yes, I know her in person... She is starting to really drive me crazy. It is always Doom and Gloom. I have to go to this Doctor. I need to see this one. Maybe I need to see if I am taking too little Prednisone is why I hurt more, instead of maybe upping the CBD oil and seeing if it really helps with ailments like it says it is supposed too. Or have I read wrong and no one really has proven it works?
She is going to end up Crippled or Dead all because she goes to Pill pushing Drs who don't care about her, and she is afraid I guess to talk natural medication remedies. She just turned 60, has Heart issues etc. I am glad I don't live next to her as then she would drive me nuts even worse,
I am sure I am not the only one, but in reality, don't talk about your Health all the time if it is gloom and doom. Find some things Happy in your life to talk about and live life. 60 is not the end of the world unless you have decided there will never be anything Fun to do. Just my thoughts

I agree with @marlina.
Plus, people say all the time for others to not be afraid to talk about anything, yet when they do, other people get annoyed. Which to me is sad. As i dont believe someone talking sad or whatever is going to change you unless you let it. So i always let them talk.

Yes, but at the same time I am sure there are exciting things a person can talk about instead of their Health all the time.

@KrauseHome not for everybody though.
Most peoples I know, their lives revolve around their health.

People like that can be a Downer, and often make you start to feel down. That is why many times now I try not to pay attention to anything she is posting unless it is positive.

@marlina Well, it is hard too sometimes. Thank goodness she lives a long ways from me, as I would probably upset her, or feel even more frustrated if we lived closer together.

Not really, unless I know that this person is a huge drama queen and likes to sensationalize everything. I do have an auntie who suffers from nerve pain and every time she posts that on facebook, I do get concerned. But I know she isn't making it up. What I can't handle though are people who do serial selfies - 30 in a row - every day. But I try not to judge. Or those who rant about their relationship or marital woes for the public to see/read. But again, I try not to judge.

Yes, I agree judging is not Good, but at the same time find some positive things to talk about and share once in a while, even about you, your family, the grandkids, etc and then it would be a little more easier for me to want to see their posts all the time

@KrauseHome Sometimes I think people are more attracted to reading other people's dramas than they are of people's accomplishments - just so they have something to talk about. I don't know. Maybe I'm just cynical.

My main issue is the person I am referring too, her Facebook is mostly that. She just feels that is the only thing worth sharing.

I feel bad and hope they feel better. Its easy to scroll by.
What really bugs me is when people flood Facebook with depressing stuff, won't say what's wrong, leads a drama / attention posts for hours... For what turns out to be nothing.
Like seriously?

I can understand if they are sick and in pain this would be all their life and all they have to talk about.

The one I am referring too, has grand babies and kids that are over all the time, and she very seldom talks about them, or shares in anything they might be doing. So I sometimes wonder if her life is really that simple and it doctors or nothing but just sit home and do nothing?

@KrauseHome There's people who don't want to talk about anyone but themselves so this could be it.

It can get tiresome, listening to the same old complaints,especially if the person doesn't do anything to help themselves. Being negative and complaining about health conditions can actually make us sicker.
That said, sometimes it helps people just to worry out loud if they don't want input, just an ear to listen. I disagree with those who say we don't have to let others drag us down because it happens whether we "let" it or not. Negativity wears on us.

Yes I agree. Especially when the person one minute is talking about that, and then trying to make you think CBD oil is good for you? But if you ask her about it, Oh my Doctors will not allow just that, and it will not heal everything so why try it for a lot of things, instead of trying it and being proof either way

I am bothered by very little that I read on line. The internet is a big free space, and we have freedom of speech. If something bothers me that much, I will simply skip it and move on, unless I think it's evidence of a crime, in which case I will contact the proper authorities.

That is a good way to look at it. Maybe I should start doing that with anything I notice she posts on Facebook unless I notice for a change it being something a little more positive.

I would think they would want to be more proactive and do things instead of always only worried about the next Drs apt. She even drags the grandkids to their apts. And Happy to post about it.

90% of what she ever posts about is her Health. She even sells natural products like CBD oil, etc but swears on all the Doctor meds and such instead saying she has to do as they want?

But when you try getting them to talk abiut something else they clam up and tend to think Good things are of No importance.

It would be OK if she mentioned the Health problems occasionally, but why the only thing she is posting is I am at the Doctors checking on this issue. What about their family life? I would like to hear more about that sometimes.

I so wish people then could find Good things to talk about and quit being so depressing

I love when people tell me about what they are suffering with-that gives me more people to pray for! God can heal anyone and anything-so them saying their problems gives me a chance to pray and show God's love for them! It's awesome!! =)

Yes, I do feel it helps give us something more to be able to Pray for them about. I just would like to be able to hear about other parts of their day and life sometimes too.
