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.

No one is immune to anxiety, especially not when the main focus of a post is a failure to thrive and loss of time itself. Everyone ages.
That's why learning when to walk away is a crucial skill everyone needs to develop.
Learning to stay present and be ok with whatever happens is also another useful skill.
When a subject causes anxiety it is easy to get caught in an avoidance pattern instead of working through it and having a learning experience. Why does that subject cause the anxiety? There's usually some mental or emotional work there for you to ponder and work through over time.
