Well, because people I care about here may be upset by this thread, I'd like to point out a couple of things even though this person has gone his merry way.
1. He asked for people's own stories and they offered them. It's unfortunate that it wasn't what he was after but that doesn't justify insulting others. And if people offered advice or insight he didn't like, he could still respond with civility and respect.
2. This is a support site. That's all we do, support. We aren't here to provide answers but rather encourage each other as we try to deal with very complex illnesses.
3. Judging other people's attitudes and their approach to healing is inappropriate for the same reason as listen in number 2, this is a support site and most people here have trained professionals guiding their recovery. It's not his place to say what people's goals should be or to state that anyone here has resigned themselves to anything.
4. Ill or not, being nice to others isn't that hard to do. Since he doesn't seem to care about his tone when dealing with others, I agree that this site is not for him.
My two cents.
