I really do. Saying someone is “broken”, when referring to an emotional state, just doesn’t make sense to me.
Why? Because they cry? Because they’re lost? Grieving something? Because they’re a mess?
Sure, some people are more resilient than others, and some stay down longer than others, but in my mind, never “broken”. That’s for a spoon or a bones or a computer. Feels very judgmental.
I’ve been noticing it a lot recently, and it’s been bothering me. Makes me mad when I hear it.
