Your statement does a poor job in its addition and neglects certain important nuances by being overly generalized in its phrasing.
"Not being busy" doesn't make you braindead and depressed. It is an important distinction between simply "not being busy" and "being forced into stagnation to the point it becomes hazardous to your health"
Not a native speaker and living in different culture, commenting online is always a risky game. I wish people would understand the correct undertone.
Undertones are entirely social concepts and depend on the culture of a region, and usually involve nonverbal communication in things like tons and body language to discern differences. Adding the language barrier just complicates things even more.
Most people unfortunately don't consciously consider this stuff and just assume everyone is like them.
So, as you said, commenting online is a risky game.
