It’s an illustrative example. Even if you don’t believe that therapy can cure depression specifically, it’s supposed to be able to cure things like it.
The problem is your comparison of theraputic interventions to sending someone a cute video. The cute video is there to cure a short term, minor, issue. The therapy is there to cure a long term major, issue. These are different.
Yea, but I don’t remember claiming anywhere that I can cure anybody’s depression, and don’t really intend to ever do that...?
