    People really went after that squid guy who was sharing his health issues. That seemed pretty unnecessary and aggressive towards someone who’s already struggling.

      Yeah that was shit. Squid made more than clear he didn’t want armchair diagnoses or input. I’ve had people do the same to me when I post about my colitis. I had someone a month ago tell me that my medical team was wrong to put me on a particular kind of medication, ignoring the fact that it’s these kinds of medications or I go through surgery and have a stoma bag. I’m 27 so understandably my medical team doesn’t want to jump to surgery without exhausting all other alternatives.

      That’s one thing I hated so much about reddit. People thinking they know it better even though they don’t know shit. Also some people made fun about him making too many comments for their liking. It’s despicable behaviour from pathetic menchildren.
