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.

Is that really what bipolar is like?
What is it like?
Absolutely not
So anon is just a cunt?
They're just immature. The lovey-dovey part is as fake as the disdain, they're just a kid cosplaying adult interpersonal relationships.
Most probably a cunt too.
If by cunt you mean a quite common personality, then yes…
Not really so far as I understand it. "Bipolar swings" are more commonly on a week-month timescale.
Not an in/out timescale?
When people say bipolar they mean borderline. The person in the green text would be borderline
Bipolar is manic-depressive though...?
They are similar, but BPD usually relates to how you think about other people, along with extreme highs and lows. The biggest difference: Bipolar is almost like being on a schedule with your manic-depressiveness, while BPD mood swings are brought on by external influences. What we see in the green text is classic BPD relationship thoughts. You are either madly in love, or you absolutely hate them. There's no in-between.
Right... okay, I was worried I'd been teaching it wrong all these years. I don't think I've ever seen Borderline and Bipolar being conflated before.
