As a fat person I never thought I'd say this but Salad, come back! 
No, but joking aside Salad forums need diversity or they become a collection of extraordinarily boring sock puppets often with explosive bouts of typed diarrhoea. You don't post anything like this and you are NOT IN ANY WAY a disgrace.
I see many people who have their issues and post them on here and there can be nothing wrong with that though there is that occasional person with nothing better to do than criticise who are best ignored.
The hardest part of all when on the spectrum is to ignore such people. It just takes a bit of will power and metal fortitude to do this things I'm sure you have a great deal of.
Stay Salad.

Actually there's a thread where 30-40 WP members encouraged and applauded salad for taking the initiative with his life.
Ya..
There are definitely ppl here who not only applaud others for taking personal responsibility & taking action to improve things in their lives, but also do those things ourselves. I've been rather outspoken about it here for the last ~9 years.

His other threads where he expresses his views and shares his approach are pretty much ignored. E.g, "Hard Intense Training Is The Best Cure For A Lot Of Problems" - there are couple dismissive comments, one saying such recommendation given to depressed people is "insulting harassment". There is only one other person who really supports him there.
I don't really see any evidence of universal support and encouragement of his mindset here. Nowhere near 30-40 WP members sharing his mindset, approach and values.

I'll stand by the notion that persistently insisting that all someone needs to do are some burpees as a magic cure for their chronic and treatment resistant depression becomes harassment if the advice has been consistently dismissed.
Salad seems genuine in his concern for other posters and doesn't become insulting or rude towards them when his advice isn't taken. Not everyone here can claim that.
I appreciate salad's presence and believe that he's overall a positive contributor in spite of any disagreements.

Are you suggesting that he's wrong?
Diet, exercise, sunlight, water, sleep.. are in fact all the best cures for a lot of problems.
You don't like that he's persistent and consistent in his messaging, that physical exercise is good for the body, mind, mood, soul & more. That doesn't make him incorrect just because you don't like it.
