The Tired Misunderstanding

Me: Mom, I'm tired.

Mom: "Then go to sleep."

Me: No, you don't understand-

Explanation

The humor comes from the misinterpretation of 'tired'. The speaker implies they are tired from depression and not from a lack of sleep, but the mom responds with a simple, literal solution.
