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.

Don't let your worst day be your last. A large portion of people who survive true suicide attempts tell you they changed their mind as they jumped.
If you're feeling suicidal, the solution isn't to remove yourself from the situation. The solution is to get out of the situation that makes you feel that way. There are people who want to help you do that. Make the call ❤️
Well to be fair, to get out of the situation that makes you feel that way is pretty similar as to remove yourself from it.
But I'm being pedantic, I do get what you mean of course. Personally I'm not really against ending ones own life per se, only the dramatic options that usually lead to all kinds of trauma should be looked at. We can handle this as a society with a gentle support for those who'd like to pass away.
It can be an acceptable solution to ones pain; but for the sake of your surroundings it should perhaps not be the first.
