I see it all the time, even right here on PC. One person will say the equivalent of, "I overcame my depression by doing A, B and C, therefore *everyone* could recover if only they did the same!" It gets really exhausting to encounter this sort of pathological solipsism every freakin' where I go.

I agree with what you just said above. I swear I was feeling like that earlier...it felt like everybody was saying the same thing & I started to feel like I was talking in circles. I was trying to figure out if people understood that everybody reacts & responds differently. Sometimes seeing that or hearing makes me feel alone, but thank you for confirming that someone understands.
