I'm sorry, let me clarify since you seem to be very pedantic. It's impossible to answer well without a bunch more information. Yes, there are other answers in this thread, but I would argue they aren't particularly helpful to either OP or any other reader.

It's kind of like someone going to a group of doctors and saying "I'm in pain", and then the doctors start throwing out reasons the person may be in pain and solutions to that pain.

Sure, there may be some interesting ideas there, but it doesn't really do OP any good without describing where the pain is, when it started, if they have any other known conditions, etc. etc.

I know you think you were helping with this comment, but you really weren't.

The comment that is unhelpful is the one that has to be voiced but refuses to participate. You're just creating a clamor where a conversation used to be by adding your noise. If you aren't going to participate in the answer beyond saying "I'm not going to answer." Then just don't.
