I appreciate the sentiment, but it still leaves some of that "no need to be depressed! Just eat organic home made meals, get 8hrs uninterrupted sleep on schedule, and take a couple hours a day to walk in the woods - it's free so anyone can do it!" taste in my mouth.

It rings hollow for folks with chronic illnesses, too. It's simply easier to do these things when you're starting from a baseline of health.

I have a severe chronic illness that has destroyed my ability to do just about anything and causes immense pain. I still try to live for my loved ones and do what I can within my limited power to improve my circumstances. This post is not an attack on people like me.
