I didn't say that happy thoughts were impossible for some people. What I meant is that some people cannot say to themselves, 'I'm just not going to worry about that' and do it. In cases of bipolar disorder and clinical depression pharmaceuticals are most often prescribed to correct these chemical imbalances in the brain. They don't do it through willpower alone.
