    As someone with many issues, it is not the responsibility of strangers to assume such things and plan their responses accordingly.

    Sure it isn't, but at the same time I think we should all take time to word our responses to people with a bit of patience and kindness and attempt to understand when interacting with total strangers, For example what one person would consider normal banter in a game another might get deeply hurt over, maybe even suicidal.

    I'm just saying understanding why someone might be over-sensitive is a lot better than just going "you have a problem, get over it"

    This is coming from someone like yourself who suffers from a myriad issues. I agree it would nice, but it is all extremely unrealistic and so sort of a moot point in all of this. Here is the issue we do have problems, and in the grand scheme to most who do not know or suffer from said problems personally it is simply a get over it issue. Since that is how most people without our problems handle it by getting over it. Asking the general public how we with problems should handle something is honestly insane, and expecting the general public to cater their responses to us and consider our problems which many do not understand is selfish in my opinion.
