Sorry, that might be my wording, those aren't Beefy's posts, only the first quote I gave about the authority anxiety preventing him from working. Those were two other random posts I grabbed out of the Mental Health OT down the page from his post that were examples of what I used to see in the GAF thread all the time. And it's often people just coming in, dumping, then never coming back until they need to dump again. Plus lots of self-diagnosing. And self-medicating. And the GAF thread always seemed to have lots of therapy refusal in it. Which actually is common with mental health issues, but certainly shouldn't be in a help thread.
I think we've had a discussion before about how the GAF version was likely toxic and probably making things worse for lots of people.
