It's Okay To Say It's Not All Okay

I think one of the most common lies we tell ourselves and others is "it's okay".
As if there's shame in acknowledging that it's not okay.

As long as things are okay, they won't get better.

It's fine to say something isn't okay, for it's the first step to making it better.

It's okay to admit we're not okay. What does prentending help?
It's okay to admit something is broken. What does warping reality help?

If something's broken it will eventually crash. Better to admit it's broken and fix it before the crash.
