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.

A lot of people are depressed because they're fixated on the negativity. You'd be surprised how much going outside, exercising, or even just doing simple things like taking a nice cold shower or cleaning up your room can help.
Obviously it'll be different from person to person but generally, setting a small goal and accomplishing that goal will make you feel better.
Anyone that takes mental health advice from a dude in a greentext community deserves to eat the shotgun.
Even just setting aside time to express gratitude can really turn things around. I have my kids do this, and that alone can turn them from being hugely negative to happily going to bed more-or-less on time.
It obviously can't cure all forms of depression, but recognizing things that you're grateful for can really improve your general outlook. It's the indoor version of touching grass.
