A brief YouTube #Shorts clip featuring Kristina Mand Lakhiani advising people to answer the common question "How are you?" truthfully when they feel unwell. She observes that social pressure pushes people to present upbeat 'best self' personas, and recommends simply saying "I'm sorry, it's not my day" or otherwise being honest and doing nothing to force positivity.

Have you ever tried answering truthfully to the question how are you? Or have you ever been answered truthfully to the question how are you? Somebody would say, actually, I'm not so well today. And you almost feel guilty for not being your top best self, upbeat and happy. But the truth is that all we need to do is nothing. And if you feel bad and in a bad mood, try to be honest for a change and just tell everyone I'm sorry, it's not my day.
