Get well soon messages
Draft supportive messages for someone who is unwell, 5 at a time.
Supporting someone who is ill without adding pressure
Messages to someone who is unwell should be short, warm, and not demand a reply. This page offers guidance and examples that work for friends, family and colleagues.
A good get-well message says you are thinking of them and encourages rest, for example "Heard you're under the weather. Rest up, no need to reply, get well soon." Saying they need not reply takes pressure off.
Avoid asking for details about their condition, suggesting treatments, or comparing them with others. For an older relative or a manager, a polite tone wishing them a quick recovery is best.
If you want to help, offer something concrete, such as covering a task or dropping off groceries. It is often more useful than "let me know if you need anything".
