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.

It did happen before, but much much less. There was a lot more live contact with people and even shy awkward people would constantly be in contact with others.
Again, this could very easily be confirmation bias. Without social media you wouldn’t have seen this post to make this comment, but this fella would still be just as sad.
Im taking in general, there is much research on social media use and loneliness.
Right but research on loneliness is hard. People self-select against being in your focus group. How are you going to reach someone who can't be contacted?
I'm not a researcher, I'm just a person who has casually browsed about the issue and it's clear the issue exists.
