I find that it actually helps when someone tells me that they can "understand" what I'm going through and I feel it more frustrating when they don't understand.

Like, for an overweight friend who gets made fun of, wouldn't she find some support in another overweight friend?? I've learned that the understanding process is some of the best support you can give someone, so I've actually not really experienced the situation where someone wants to "top" someone else's pain...
