how can I help?

It's always funny the reaction people give (and might be expecting) when I hear the conversation. It's some variation of:

 

Person A: I've got to give up social media. I can't take it anymore. 

Person B: Really? Oh man... Yeah... 

Person A: It's just gotten to be too much. 

Person B: I get it. Forever?

Person A: No, no. Just maybe the summer. 

 

Here is more of the variation I think we should be pushing for:

Person A: I've got to give up social media. I can't take it anymore. 

Person B: How can I help you get rid of it forever? 

 

It might be a little harsh but that's me. When someone announces to me that they are getting off it, I hear it as though someone is announcing they are not going to do cocaine anymore. Awesome! What can I do to help?
