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 depressed.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That stuff can traumatize you for a long time. I’m a pretty big, bearded 30 something guy, who was subjected to pretty intense bullying in school as well.
Literally to this day my heart starts racing and I start to panic sweat when I hear giggling teenagers in public.
I experience paranoia comparable to this. It always comes from a weird angle where I cannot confront whatever is affecting me. Whenever my emotions go into overdrive like this, I cling to my objectives. What am I doing, where am I going, and even why. Then repeat as often as necessary until the moment passes.
*sigh* I know exactly what you mean..
Childhood bullying can ruin the rest of your life. For me it resulted in having tons of insecurities. To this day I have a hard time accepting a compliment without thinking it might have an ulterior motive.
