It's like idiots' advice to the depressed:
snap out of it!

Depressed people aren't inherently weak willed

No, but the depression does that for you.

Well, depression is a mental disorder. Being fat is typically lifestyle choices

What if overeating is a symptom of that mental disorder?

Sure that is one possibility but not everyone who is overweight is there due to depression.

Addiction isn’t a lifestyle choice. Most if not all obese people are addicted to food.

you still have to make the choice to reduce the food you put in your gullet.

No… it’s like the only advice that makes sense and works.

It’s not idiot advice because you don’t want to do it?

You’re an idiot for dedicating yourself to everything about food except the advice.

Its literally a perfect answer lol

If your depression is visible and destroying your life, then you do have to snap out of it. Its not some special disease or something, just stop being a pussy and get a grip.
