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!Really, the level of ignorance you are showing here is amazing!Sandman
I bet, since the "level of ignorance" was expressed by you and you alone.
Slimer started by saying someone with morals and values would not "submit" to anxiety...
No one has claimed it doesn't.SnitSandmanSandmanSnit
If you know you're not feeling well you should take extra care to not let this affect the ones that are around you.
If a service member who is suffering from PTSD and this impacts their life in a severe way is merely "not feeling well" and should make sure it does not affect anyone else.
Indeed. It should be in any person's interest not see him- or herself as a victim and let others suffer from it.
Sure. But having such an illness DOES impact most people's families.
But the people around you will know if you're making an effort, if you're doing your best to contain and control your problem. Living with someone with mental issues is always going to take a poll on you, but the person WITH the mental illness should always want their loved ones to feel that you made every effort to not let it affect them. Some things are out of your control, but many things are IN your control.SandmanSnit
A lot of people with PTSD (which isn't exclusive to former soldiers) turn to drugs and alcohol, severely worsening their state and the life of those around them, instead of getting medical and psychological treatment to help them deal with their situation in the way that benefits them, and the ones in their life the most.
PTSD (or other mental problems) isn't a choice, it's how you live with it that's the choice. Taking responsibility for your own actions is the first step to getting to grips with the situation. Realizing that you cannot blame your mental illness for treating others bad is another. If you suffer from PTSD, you deserve all the help and treatment that is available to you, but if you treat people bad, they will not want to help you, and you end up alienating others which in turn makes matters worse for yourself.
For the most part I agree... though such illnesses can lead to people, even doing their best, treating others poorly or being more dependant than they want to be. This is also true of many other illnesses.
Slimer obviously feels you're not exercising that control on USENET, and blames you for it.
Again, according to you. Also something you've yet to convince another living person of, right?SnitSandmanSnitSlimerSandman
He doesn't want to convince anyone; he simply wants to destroy whatever your viewpoint is.
Well, he's pretty lousy at that, so I'm not sure...
And things you claim to be sure of you are still wrong about!
Or so you claim, but thus far, you haven't been able to convince anyone about it, right?
Who I convince? What? Heck, most of those who troll me in COLA do so just to troll.
See, when you say something like the above, it's only one little voice in a sea of voices that disagree with you.
