Thanks to my friends and supporters for everything, but I too think it's time to walk away from DU.

6. Thank you for your eloquence

What you've written needed to be said. There is a lot of needless cruelty on DU sometimes, and you show us how it should be dealt with. You are strong and a fighter and intelligent. The Sandy Hook murders have brought out a tremendous amount of rage which so many find easy to express by lashing out with cruel and unjust accusations. I think sometimes people fear to grieve so much that they hide behind anger as their way to deal with things they can't control. For many people mental illness is a weapon they use to blame and condemn harshly with very little understanding of what it is.

I think you're showing a great deal of practical and healthy thinking by choosing not to be abused.

And I agree with your assessment of the fine people who have helped you. They've helped me too and I am quite grateful for them.
