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.

Do not fuck with benadryl. Do not even take it for allergies.

Best OTC sleep aid there is. Melatonin is not what everyone thinks it is.

Can you expand on that? I take melatonin every day, have I been poisoning myself?

I've heard of people developing a dependence on it when taking it regularly. Especially kids.

I use it a couple times a year for the occasional restless night and it seems to work for me.

It's not inherently harmful afaik but it could disrupt your sleep if for any reason you have to stop taking it.
