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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I survived suicide. As a side effect, the action showed me who my real friends were. People started to finally pay the fuck attention to me and my struggles. Turns out I had a rare physical disease that was making it very difficult to participate in society not just as dude, but as a whole. As many have said, don't do it, I still have stomach issues from the wombo combo of meds I took to do the deed. I was lucky. If you ever feel like no one loves ya or that your are nothing. Just poof for a week to somewhere they can't reach you and where you are safe. Don't hurt yourself. Check to see how many reach out to you. If the number is low or zero, instead of saying: "see, no one loves me." Go "damn, these fucks don't give a damn about me, let's find someone who will!"

It's insane, but: you don't die, you learn who loves you, and you have your health.

Go forth and fight the demons. As long as you are fighting them others will assit.

That is certainly some experience, and a good life lesson. I just want to remark, if my best friends disappeared for a week, I would assume they just wanted to disappear for a week, and had their reasons to not tell me. Doesn't mean I don't care about them.
