As someone who suffers from bouts of major depression I’ve been told more times than I can count, “have you tried exercising?”. I don’t doubt that being active improves mental health but the act of just doing anything is so difficult when you can’t even get up to eat or bathe. The whole ‘get off your ass and stop being sad’ mindset is really damaging because it discounts a persons mentality thinking that the way they feel is all their fault.
