The brightly colored art by Gemma Correll indicated that this "advice" is dripping with irony. The text reads: "HOW TO PRETEND TO BE HAPPY 1. Practice Fake Smiles Practice smiling in the mirror. Wider. No, I said WIDER. Smile harder, damn it! You suck at this. Nobody else needs to practice smiling, so you must be broken. That's why you don't deserve happiness. SMILE! There, that wasn't so hard. Now just do that all day, every day, until people learn what a fraud you are."

"2. TRY CRISIS AVOIDANCE THERAPY SESSIONS* Google 'Kittens' again. That usually helps for a few minutes. *Crisis Avoidance Therapy Sessions are not recognized as a viable treatment for any disorder by the American Psychiatric Association, but you know better than to listen to 'doctors' with their 'science,' right? 3. KEEP A HEALTHY SENSE OF PERPECTIVE Remember that 'Somebody has it worse than you.' Because that's the way the world works. Only ONE person at a time is allowed to feel pain. That person's name is Anna and she lives in a war-torn region where she is constantly besieged by horrors we dare not name. (But don't you even THINK about being sad for her!)"

"4. EAT YOUR FEELINGS Stick this chart on your fridge: Loneliness = Ben & Jerry's Phish Food Hopelessness = Check boxes on floor for cold pizza slices Anxiety - Fistfuls of popcorn Fear = Store-brand 'Sugary Flakes' cereal, dry and straight from the box Sadness = Ben & Jerry's Half Baked Despair = Funyons Trauma = Chicken soup Grief = Chinese-food delivery (just hit 'redial') Shame = Ben & Jerry's Peanut Buttah Cookie Core Anger = Nacho! Cheese! Combos! Disappointment = Cookies... any cookies Self-Loathing = Leftovers from the last time you tried eating a meal"

"5. NEVER FORGET THE *REAL* MEANING OF 'POSITIVE THINKING' Did you ever notice how your 'positive' friends keep posting memes about how everybody needs to get rid of the 'negative' people in their lives? That's your friends' way of telling you that they will never talk to you again if they find out that you ever get sad. Take the hint and keep your mouth shut. 6. ON SECOND THOUGHT... ...maybe it would be better if everybody else would try to remember that you are a GOOD PERSON who DESERVES SUPPORT, even when you're not happy."

If you're sick and tired of being told to "smile more," then you might appreciate my New Yorker piece "How To Pretend To Be Happy." This parody of #PositiveThinking features art by the great @gemmacorrell.bsky.social! #ToxicPositivity

This is the best visual representation I've ever seen of an eating disorder and body dysphoria. I say this as someone who struggles with both. It makes me feel less alone in this fight. Incredible piece of art.

I wanted to express my gratitude to the author of Wasted, an amazing book about eating disorders, so I drew her. She recovered from many eating disorders.
