But that being said....if he is being honest, I think its poor taste for you to come of with the above sort of scathing post. What if he doesn't have the support system to talk to and maybe "can't afford" any professional type of advice/ help that your suggesting he should seek. Its so easy for those that have to judge those that do not and be condescending as it seems you're doing above. 

 

I'm not going to bash someone for handling something maybe the only way they know how to at the moment. 

 

Now, if its a troll thread and all he's doing is baiting us all....yeah, then I'd have a problem with it. 

 

Why is my post so "scathing"?  Because it's the truth?

 

I'm certainly sure that if he works in some sort of job that he described, there are means and ways for him to get professional help.  Also, there are public means to gain assistance, especially related to mental health.  The issues described here are much better told to people that can handle the situation rather than being made public.

 

Call me a "have" all you want.  You have no idea regarding my situation, and I choose not to make it public.

 

I also wasn't "bashing" anyone.  I just find it peculiar that someone would "air their dirty laundry" on a public forum.  This isn't a place for that.  If this is the only place that he can "talk" about what's going on with him, then he has serious issues.
