I simply "cut off" those two people who did this to me recently, nobody on PC... I simply didn't bother "communicating" with them again
(They showed quite astonishing ignorance

especially as one of them was a "medical professional" - admittedly I'm "hypervigilent" and in a sense "hypersensitive" but that doesn't negate the "stupidity" and unhelpfulness of their words (sigh)
Not worth my time (shrug)

I doubt if many I've known IRL would have survived the traumas I've survived any "better" than I have  Isn't there an old saying about don't judge someone before you've walked a mile in their shoes 
(PS just to be super clear, the disrespectful response was from the IRL person I had been talking to)
