Obviously you've never suffered from mental distress. It ain't pretty. This part of the article resonates with me as it seems to describe what @GrayDragon went through some years ago when he was experiencing anxiety:

"It's important to remember that behaviors exhibited by individuals with anxiety, such as panic, pacing, and fidgeting, are not conscious choices. They are coping mechanisms.".

Just slap the weak faggot and tell him to go do some pushups. Not optional.

Repeat every day until they stop crying like weakfags.

Give them a month to live, then kill them if no progress.
