What Do You Really Mean When You Say, "I AM FINE"

 

Do you know that “I am fine” is the most told lie in the English language? It is usually used when someone is, in fact, not fine but they say “I am fine” because they don’t want to burden others and it’s easier to explain than what’s wrong, would you agree?

F.I.N.E is said to stand for “Feeling Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional”, and can also be “Feeling I’m Nothing to Everyone” or “Feeling Inadequate, Needing Encouragement”. Whatever your definition of FINE may be most of us would just lie and say “I am FINE”, because it’s an easy way out.

Then why do we say “I am fine” when clearly, we’re not:

  • Not sure of what you really feel
  • Pretending to be okay
  • To avoid conflicts
  • Scared to tell what you're really feeling

 

Only those who identify with these feelings can truly understand the agony behind the words “I am fine.”

The next time someone asks how you are, think about the response you’re already anticipating. What if we didn’t settle for “fine”? What if we stop, take a moment, and answer with true sincerity how I’m doing? Or better yet, tell them how you’re feeling. We could all benefit from slowing down and honestly evaluating how we are doing.

Healthy Body Image: Tips for Guiding Teens with Baby Boss

 

Ever wondered how to help teens navigate their body image struggles in today's social media-driven world? I remember being in high school, constantly comparing myself to the "perfect" images I saw online. It wasn't just me; my friends, both girls and boys, were all battling their own insecurities.

For girls, it was about not being lean enough, not having the right tan, or not looking like the popular influencers. We worried about our breast size, eye color, weight, height, and even the smallest details like hair color and stretch marks. It felt like there was always something wrong with us.

Boys had their own set of challenges too. They worried about not having abs, not being tall enough, or not looking muscular. Hair, facial hair, height, and weight were constant sources of anxiety. Surprisingly, some studies suggest that men might struggle even more with body image issues than women.
