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.

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.

And, let me guess, a sign of poor character for someone with MS to have to use a wheelchair? After all, a "real man" can walk for himself!
