    Not sure people explicitly realise this, but when somebody is hurting and opens up and talks about it, one of the most hurtful things the other conversant(s) can do is reorient the topic to be about them and/or to be about jocular takes on the topic.

        To help out and avoid the this type of derailment, try to notice when and who does this and shut them down if you have the spoons. I usually go with: "This is about X's topic right now. We haven't finished." Or "I'm not interested in making jokes or sarcasm, we're discussing X."

        It's hard to do this when you're the one hurting, so let's just all have each others' backs.

        On a related note — PSA: DO NOT GASLIGHT PEOPLE! I recently, witnessed some serious gaslighting. Please do not gaslight people. There are no 100% bad nor 100% good ppl, but there are inappropriate words and actions, promises broken, and correct or wrong retellings of events.

        I've also seen people realise they carry similar pain or that this is a safe environment to share when sbd opens up. It *can* work out very well, but they can cut each other off. I'm like "well I shouldn't interrupt either of you but this isn't great 😥".

        Realising you are carrying similar pain (almost always?) is the opposite to changing topic (what I called above in OP: "reorient the topic") and definitely is not the same as "jocular takes on the topic".

        HOWEVER, you are right that people carrying the same pain often make jokes. It's part of their coping strategy — and the jokes-are-OK environment is negotiated between them because they are in an informed and consensual jokes-are-our-coping-tactic zone.

        Those jokes are not offensive, but are indeed part of the healing process. It's important to know that like the word "that" refers to dramatically different things as a fraction of context, pragmatics plays a great role in when a joke is OK or not.

        If you think a joke isn't appropriate — if you are not sure — don't make it.

        Sometimes I wonder if I do this unintentionally when I have a "omg me too" moment. E.g. taking the space away from them to speak because I've realised we have shared experience. It can be a fine line to tread in that situation.
