DO YOU THINK THAT.....

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger?

It's an uplifting thought but unfortunately not always the case.

No. If that were true, there would be no PTSD, no suicide and no breakdowns.

No. It's just a snappy bumper sticker.

It just depends on the situation.

Sometimes when people face adversity, the next time they might be mentally or physically more prepared when it happens again.

No I believe what doesn't kill you, will kill you eventually unless you change your circumstances.

It depends on the individual, I think.

For me, it has been true and the circumstances were totally beyond my control.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Blanket statements like this are rarely true, I think.

I've learned in my life that yes, what didn't kill me, made me stronger. It also made me a little bit more nervous.

Yes!

Life's too complicated for bumper sticker platitudes.

no real specifics.........you reflect on adversities you've face and evaluate them and yourself.

Did you find it made you reach deep inside and discover abilities, courage, fortitude to persevere obstacles you didn't know you were capable of?..........or did you just crumble?

adversity more often then not is a discovery of self........................................raven

It depends on the drug you're taking.

If what doesn’t kill us is making us stronger,

We’re gonna last longer

Than that greatest wall in China

Or that rabbit with the drum

If there’s one thing that I’ve learned

While waiting for my turn,

It’s that in each life some rain falls

But you also get some sun

And we’ll make out better than okay

Hear what I say

Hey, any day

Depends on the situation and person...

No. Many times what doesn't kill someone just beats them down and leaves them anxiety ridden and depressed.

In the case of a virus (Ebola, for instance), this is not only true, but may also help others with a transfusion of your blood.

No, that's just a line from a popular song....
