If you met you had a psychiatric nurse practitioner you should say that, because a nurse is an overly broad generalization.
Then you said “COVID lockdown made you sad, not depressed”, which appears to be your own imagination, since they didn’t even mention COVID.
I responded strongly to your original comment, because I feel it breaks multiple guidelines of this site, and I feel a community should moderate itself for the most part.
Perhaps you are 100% correct, but your delivery needs to be a lot more caring and considerate, especially when somebody is revealing something so intimate and personal.
> I’m having a discussion about them
Your original comment was not a discussion: you wrote as though your opinions are facts, which came across to me as though you were denying their own reality. You then proceeded to do the same thing to me, which I am reacting poorly to.
Edit: also, the original comment implied the commenter has high social, emotional and mental capabilities. Stressful personal life and still teaching children at inner-city schools: passing that proof implies high ability. Teachers absorb a massive amount of practical psychology by caring about their students, and interacting with problem students all the time.
