Of course, like all things offensive - I dont mean to be offensive but...

What on earth makes it acceptable for someone to tell folk (who may have suffered whatever horrible things they have) to get there *****'s up out of bed? Thats like me telling someone who is schizophrenic to stop seeing things/hearing things and get over it.

Guess what? We all have responsibility's. Does depression care? Not a bit.

When your depression is so bad where you do not give a crap because you cant think - I dont think your going to jump out of bed because someone tells you to get your ***** up. Its not very empowering and not very thoughtful neither.

Different people deal with things different ways, have been through different things, and wont recover at the same speed. You dont know if someone has been raped, stabbed on the street, hit by a car, been beat up or what a person who wont get out of bed because of depression has gone through.

When someone wont get out of bed because of depression - there not at home. There not there mentally. Try again once the trauma has passed slightly.
