So used to the pain.

I’m so used to being told to get over it

It’s not a big deal

It’s nothing

Stop being dramatic

It‘s not that hurtful

It doesn’t matter

Ignore it

Forget it

There’s nothing wrong

Nothing to cry about

I always hear them,

So much That somehow how I convinced myself it’s all okay and it’s fine, its normal and my mental health keeps getting worse

And It’s okay to not speak it all out and keep crying it away.

Yep basically! It doesnt make me feel better, just worse by making me feel like my feelings are stupid and arent valid

Yeah, I dislike this rhetoric too. They probably want to help you by convincing you that your problems aren't that bad or that things are easier than they look for you. But it just makes it seem like they don't think your feelings are valid and that you are alone with all this. Sometimes all sad people want to hear is that this really does suck and they are right about what they feel is wrong. Btw you are absolutely right to feel sad about what happened there.
