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.

IDK about 'loneliness epidemic', but 'lonely' IS my normal.
I do communicate with some friends more than once a week, but none of them even live in the same city as I do.
That's the hell of it, but if you feel lonely at a base level, I suggest you try to find or start community events. You'd be amazed how effective Meetup is.
I have health issues that get in the way of in-person-socializing.
I don't really have a way to deal with that. I have my own issues, but I do fight past them to try being social whenever I can. The biggest thing I can say is to find groups who do voice & video chats more often.
Depends where you are, seems to be a pretty US-based thing. Here it is all weird stuff.
Fair enough, but I'm sure there's an alternative.
