A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

At no point was that mentioned in the OP
The post is saying that the helpful advice is about making choices and omits things outside of your control, like depression, that can lead to the same result.
The post isn't saying to not be depressed.
It’s a sarcastic take on common advice. It’s implied by the inanity of the suggestion. Most people got it, wasn’t something you saw. You’ll get it next time :).
Pretty sure I got it and you meant to reply to breadsmasher.
Yup.
what? it literally does say that.
"Don't suffer' is different than "Don't choose to be".
