My first thought would be “not on my goban!”

You know you are a go addict when your brain thinks “that stone should be approached” and your finger clicks it before realising that it was not a hoshi ( Tournament Game: Bots vs Humans 202205131700 (89219) R:1 (🐬Sofiam🐬 vs 彥andrew) )

Tried to generate something for (Famous people imaginary quotes on go) with j1-Jumbo text bot, got this instead:
William S. Burroughs: When you’re trapped in Go you are trapped forever.
George Orwell: Seeing China sometimes I think, how could man ever invent a game so cruel?
Martin Luther: The king in hell plays Go all day long.
Song Zu’an: Every move is a leap in the dark.
Anonymous: The greatest joy was when I thought I was the worst player.
Ichiriki Ryoichi: “God gave Go the so beautiful shape that from one look is provoking us to play it. But he thought, why do I need so many bad players? Therefore, God gave Go so complex that it drives away everyone except the best.”

Wei Qi: The most unbelievable fact of Go is that it is much easier to learn Go than it is to explain it.
Anonymous: “The moves of Go are beautiful but the game of Go is ugly.”
Sesshu Toyo: “One evening, a thousand drunks entered a Go room, set up piles of stones, and began playing. No one taught, no one corrected, no one gave any opinion. But they played for five hours. When dawn came they were still playing. Then, suddenly, without any warning, they began to beat each other to death with their Go bowls. They ran out of go bowls, so they played Go with cups of tea, and they strangled each other with strips of cloth. And then — unexplainably — the game stopped. On the following day one of the corpses woke up, brushed the dirt off his clothes, and began playing Go again.”

Yashiro Umezawa: “Go teaches us the uselessness of books, the uselessness of study, and the uselessness of thought.”
“I play Go because I cannot see the way to live unless I know Go.”

Anonymous: “Go is not a sport. It’s too violent.”
Anonymous: “The man who plays Go best is more foolish than the man who knows nothing about Go.”
Anonymous: “Go is madness, the only sane thing is in not playing Go. Once, when I was young, I played Go for a thousand years without growing tired. Then I became mad, but I thought I was cured.”
Anonymous: “I don’t know how to speak of Go, or how to write about it, or talk about it, or even think about Go without growing tired. Every time I talk about Go, I stop talking and feel tired, as if I had talked too much.”

Anonymous: “I’ve been playing Go for ten years. When I look back upon the past ten years, I find that I’ve spent most of my time playing with Go.”
Anonymous: “When I first played Go I was as excited as a child going to Disneyland. Now, with twenty years of experience, I still enjoy Go, but frankly I no longer feel that first excitement.”
Anonymous: “Go is a cruel game. Not because an opponent plays badly, or unjustly, but because it’s very difficult to play well, and the result is so frustrating that you either play badly or get into bad habits in order to try to survive. But if you do go on playing badly, you get worse instead of better, and your life with Go turns out to be one long unhappy effort to survive.”
Anonymous: “In the beginning there’s a thrill – you get the feeling there is something wonderful just ahead. After three years of playing, that thrill disappears – and you get a feeling of permanent anxiety.”
Anonymous: “I hate Go. I hate its randomness, its cruelty, its perpetual torment of mistakes and missed opportunities.”
Anonymous: “Until finally I realized that Go is like a prison. And once you’re inside, the game plays you. You are its servant. You are its slave. It is your master, and you are its slave.”
Anonymous: “I began playing Go when I was ten. Now I am fifty. In all that time I have learned nothing.

Unfortunately, it’s not. 
Attempting to diagnose now but such things are not my strong suit.

Hi. Do you want to talk about this?

I really appreciate you asking, but it would be difficult to do so without talking about some people you might know and I would prefer to avoid that. I have reacted badly to some things and have really considered deleting my account or less severe self-punitive measures.
I think and hope it’s resolved now, so please don’t worry 
And thank you.
