Let me get this straight. You've gotten yourself into a shitty situation(s) on this board through your own choices and actions, much like how someone could end up depressed as a result of their own choices and actions.

Instead of trying to change your lifestyle/personality to avoid getting yourself into such a situation(s), you're just going to back out. Take the easy option, much like someone with depression (genuine or otherwise) does when they decide to take anti-depressants.

No-one explicitly said that they want another hiatus, they just want you to stop being such a fucking dick.

Back on topic, I'm fairly certain that if I hadn't taken Fluoxetine a few years ago, I would have killed myself.

Anti-depressants are Not Crap.

Holy gold. Winner!

That was the shittest hiatus ever.

I would watch a PBS children's television program about geometry called "Dr. Pylon."

You know you're right, I'm sorry Bobrick. Very sorry for insulting you, I've obviously really hurt you.

You sound very upset, is there something in your life bothering you? Hope it wasn't just me.

You're right Bobrick. Sorry I upset you. The SUV, Iraq war and pitbull anologies are very convincing. People who take antidepressants are quite clearly weak-minded, flabby layabouts, who should just get over it.

I'm sorry.

2 days? Pathetic.

Bobrick, are you sure you're alright?

I mean it does seem a little odd how now I've stopped arguing with you, you've begun inventing arguments for us to have instead.

I really didn't mean to get you this worked up. I hope you're ok.

There we go. Some good give and take. Although I would prefer that the bitter-animosity factor not outbalance the flow-of-information factor, but that's just me. And is that really what's happening? Of course another way to look at it is that bitter animosity or better yet verbal (digital?) hostility is an emotion of a kind, sometimes a very intense one. Those who prefer their/or others' emotions to be managed chemically may instinctively feel repelled by such an intense emotion, as they would associate it with painful or just plain unrewarding past experiences that never seemed to have gotten anywhere. For them. But this is just speculation on my part, and no doubt the conversation is far from over here.
