Iainy although you mean well, the last thing Chicken needs is an out - by telling him he can post to you give him the excuse he needs not to go to the doctors.
I understand your sentiments exactly Isadora, I just thought that talking to others and letting it all out might be an optional avenue for Chicken to consider. I feel that sometimes just talking to someone, anyone, helps to relieve certain stresses. In a cathartic kinda way.
