"Wtf? How do you get through life? Get over yourself and grow up."

Yup, nothing hateful or vitriolic about hurling that at someone with a mental illness.

I can't figure out if you're actually that thick or if you agree with OP that mentally ill people just need to stop being babies and act normal.

Those are literally the only two reasons for your behavior in this thread: ignorance or hate. Which is it?

Or maybe it's that I - as a person who also has mental illness, btw - feel very strongly that one person's mental illness is ultimately thei own responsibility and no one eles's. I am not mocking people for having them or telling them to snap out of it. But it's ridiculous to imply that a fic author has a responsibility to cater to someone else's anxiety when writing or posting fic, and they aren't even doing something really careless like leaving out major trigger warnings.

OP could have been nicer, but again, there is a reason stuff like this is posted as a secret. I think their frustration with other people acting entitled and emotionally blackmailing fic writers over WIPs is understandable. They weren't being hateful towards mental illjess, in my interpretation (correct me if wrong, OP?) but rather exasperated and snarky towards a particular subgroup of people as defined by their choices - not even a subgroup, really, as people who do not have mental illness, or have an illness that has nothing to do with their fic reading experience, also do this.
