I realize your having a hard time, but you must realize that we're just a bunch of geeks/nerds volunteering our spare time.. I can't speak for the others, but I'm not a not psychologist and I'm certainly no therapist.
Not overly comfortable sharing this, but I have a sibling with bipolar disorder/depression and she able to cope with her disability.
If you enjoy using BSD, perhaps you should avoid the social/community aspects and try obtaining some first hand experience?
I started out an avid lurker on the mailing lists and forums, some intense threads show up from time to time but it's not worth adding emotions to something purely technical. If you are unable to compose a rational/logical response to something, close your MUA. Think about it for a bit, attempt to research the issue and if you can't grasp it immediately, come back to it at some future date. If it comes up again you'll be able to stay cool and collected and share what you learned.
I'm assuming you're Mr-Biscuit? is that correct?
