understood
telling a visibly distraught person to
sleep on it because they’d feel better in the morning.
That implies they are incorrect at that point, and you’re
encouraging them to sleep through the night in hopes they
change by morning. Sometimes the correct words are hard to find
for every person, but almost always people just need to be
distracted from themselves. They don’t want cliche lines
or an instant fix. They need help categorizing their demons
because sometimes, without warning, they all come out to play
at once, and no amount of sleep in the world is going to fix
that.
