This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Can confirm. European health care systems may be flawed in many ways, but I have personally known people who avoided getting their treatable illnesses treated.
Though if you have the kind of issue where you'd consider taking the risk of a Dr House-intervention, you're fucked in Europe, too - IME, at least here in Germany doctors absolutely hate investigating the more complicated cases.
Women as well, I had a relative die of (maybe curable) breast cancer, who had avoided screenings because she was scared they'd turn out positive. Yeah. To be honest, I am not much better, I should get some check-ups done.
