Dear Queenie,
I have a chronic condition that there is no cure for and when people find out about it they always make some comment about it.
Queenie, what’s a good way to respond?—Fed up
Dear Fed up,
If the comment is sympathetic or a compliment, thank them. If it is a suggestion about how to cure yourself, thank them and tell them that is up to your doctor. And if they say it is “all in your head,” just ignore them.
