So you want her to not post anymore, so you attack her, but this strategy is clearly not working, so why keep doing it? Speaking of mental health, isn't doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results supposed to be the definition of insanity? This thread did not take this turn simply because DD stated her opinion. It took this turn because people kept arguing with her, taking jabs, dragging it out, then telling her that she was making the thread "all about her."
As someone who deals with a couple of mental health disorders I find it really unfortunate that you don't see anything wrong with what you said to DD. Didn't you say you were studying to be a teacher? If so, I hope for your sake and your future students you learn some tact between now and then.

I hardly see how disliking someone on a forum and being honest about it will make me any less of a teacher. There are several people on this forum I constantly disagree with and do not like. Most of them are unaware of it because I don't feel the need to tell them. And I'm sure it's vice versa.
I'd rather not bring my future career into this, as it really isn't relevant. I posted what I did to make some sort of amends. I didn't do it so you could criticize me. I have said the same things as others but for some reason I'm the 'bad guy'.
Everyone has their faults. One of mine is not being able to deal with drama and BS over an extended period of time. (Apparently) I don't like to baby people or ignore bad behavior. I don't want to go around protecting everyone for the sake of being a protector. That is me.
But, you're entitled to your opinions and right to express them.
