Endless Positivity

Am I the only one who finds the endless positivity threads meaningless , tedious and actually depressing?

Every thread about gratitude and name one thing you are happy about and what can we be positive about today? please I must be positive about something!!!

Why do people think enforcing these "positive" things is going to help them? They are so one-dimensional, it's like try so hard to only think of positives, try so hard, try so hard ... and then collapse into depression

 You know why? because it's fake, it's unrealistic, it's unsustainable and all they do is try harder over and over. It's an obsession - positivity syndrome

I'm a bit late, but, no, you're not. That stuff also does my head in. Genuinely positive stories/posts coming from a place of authenticity are one thing but over the top and relentless positivity is indeed toxic in my opinion.
