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.

~~Ugly and low IQ~~ Severe Depression

I hope anon gets some help. It's hard to find your way out of that bleakness once you're there. I speak from experience, and it IS possible to get better. Self worth takes a lifetime to build if your parents didn't make the fundament for it in you. It's still worth working on it.

It's okay to not be the perfect adult, when you have barely learned what adulthood is. It's okay to be a late bloomer. It's okay to be uncertain. It's okay to do life at your own pace. But don't let the bleakness win. No matter how shite it gets, it won't last forever and you will find the way back from that pit. Even if it happens at such a slow and sluggish pace, that you don't even notice the improvements from day to day.

I wish I could give anon a hug. Been there too, buddy.

This person is one of the least pathetic people on that board.

I feel like there's only so much blame you can put onto a single person for their situation before you wonder what the hell is going on with their parents/guardians?

Because someone in their mid-20s having no basic life skills cannot be blamed purely on Anon. Either their parents are neglecting them, or coddling them to the point of sabotage.

Having said all that, if Anon is articulate enough to write all of this - then they've got a high enough IQ to at the very least try to do something about their situation, even if its just doing volunteer work for a while to build up some basic skills.

Yeah, this reads more like depression and self-sabotage then stupidity.

Painful to watch young people fall victim to these ideas that so harm their self-esteem.

The post itself says not as dumb as you think you are.

Right, now they just have to want to change their situation and they will be all right. That's the harder part, but probably always doable.
