I haven't got the medical/psychiatric expertise to talk about anxiety in any capacity, but I do agree that it's a sign of poor character to let a mental illness affect people around you in a negative manner. If you know you're not feeling well you should take extra care to not let this affect the ones that are around you.SandmanSlimer
Only, he didn't actually tell you to "get over it". He just said that he dislikes that your personal health issues make you post repeatedly on usenet over pointless debates. Something I'm sure you would agree with - when was the last time you had a "debate" on usenet that had a point? I mean, a debate that had a goal you felt was achieved successfully? Aren't you always found in threads disagreeing with pretty much everyone?
He put words in my mouth, a shocker. I should point out though that I'm not saying that he should "get over it," I'm saying that real men wouldn't even be affected by things such as anxiety. Most of us would find a way around it and accomplish everything that we are supposed to do as husbands and fathers. Anxiety is not an illness, it's an excuse.
Well, he's pretty lousy at that, so I'm not sure...Sandman
When was the last time anyone (other than a sock puppet of yours) said "Thanks" to something you said? And even if you can find such a post, how much of the actual responses are those percentage-wise?I'm sure you feel that you're often trying to make a point, but the real question is, *are* you making the point? I.e. even if you feel you have a good and solid view on a given subject, do you ever find that you "win" the argument and the opposing person adopts your viewpoint?Food for thought.Slimer
He doesn't want to convince anyone; he simply wants to destroy whatever your viewpoint is.
