not sure if the intent is to make me feel normal, inclusive of others or just a 'I dont know what to say' comment... -- I think it could be both @Neelix
the other one "is to keep Busy "

I've had people tell me I'm demon possessed and tried to deliver me.... I got worse and don't bother with them anymore. Don't tell people they have demons.

Unhelpful? Can't you get over it, it's in the past. (When going to hospital) is this how you gonna deal with every problem in the future? Don't you enjoy ... (whatever the person is doing for you or with you).
Helpful? I don't actually know if I find it helpful when people acknowledge my "problems" as I think I shouldn't have them. The only thing I really do find helpful is when people take the time to figure out with me what I could do next - and therefore give me "permission" to be nice to myself. I find it also helpful if people take me out to do something they think I will enjoy and point out things I used to enjoy. And if they're ok with me being how I am.
Difficult topic and bey individual.
