This is not advice, it's toxic positivity. Telling a person that they are wrong for having feelings will only serve to make them feel invalidated, isolated, condescended to and further frustrate them while sending them a signal that you are not a person to trust with their feelings.
If someone in your personal life starts venting to you, do them a favor and keep this to yourself, and just listen to them instead.
