I remember when I was at my worst, and online people really helped, basically they helped me tread water until I could find a doctor to help me. It took ages. Once in a while some asshat showed up and told me that I just chose to feel bad and they had chosen to feel good so if they can, everyone else can. That was really discouraging.
Some people think mentally-ill people who seek validation and support are playing victims and lazy, and their support is feeding this "victim mentality". These people probably have never suffered from any mental illness or forgot how it is like , and they don't know how crippling it can be (anymore).
