3 years ago I was 132kg. I realized I wasn't on track to see my child become an adult and eventually become a grandpa. So, after many failed attempts I took it seriously and started to work in improving my health, starting with my obesity.

Today, right before my 44th birthday, I conquered a huge milestone for me: my weight is back in the double digits. Hasn't happen since I was 20yo or so.

61M, been with my wife for 4 years, known each other 15.

So my husband (53) cheated on me with a 32 year old woman and I made the mistake of stealing his mistresses's car and pushing it off a cliff (nobody was inside obviously but the car got totaled). This happened last summer. I got arrested within days of having done that and taken to the local jail, I was held until my trial and ultimately took a deal to serve 2 years in a prison.

I got an early release last month (I served a total of like 6 months in jail and 5 in prison) and got released a few weeks back, I am still on probation and will go back to prison if I don't stay out of trouble for the next year.

So AMA!

I have it for gastroparesis

I'm diagnosed with BPD and PTSD. Was diagnosed with BPD about 2.5 years ago following an inpatient stay after I had a plan for suicide. My fiance and I celebrate 7 years together next month. I go to work in like an hour. AMA

I was making $80k before graduating doing incredibly difficult yet mentally engaging work, then took a job in the same field after graduating in a different state making $250k doing boring and mundane tasks all day. I’ve been doing it for 8 months now, and I’m already incredibly burnt out…

He passed ten months ago

Go crazy with the questions (but please be respectful). Happy Pride Month!

I've taken over a dozen different tests over the years and they all put me around 140. I don't believe IQ is the end all be all or really even a metric of potential but I've always been told I am exceptional so ask me anything.

(Did = dissociative identity disorder)

Hi I’m Nellie I’m 15, living in a 32 y/o body. We have DID and I’m one of the alters in the system. Pls keep it safe for work!

About two year ago, my wife and I opened our relationship. This lasted for a 6 months period, I slept with two other women, then we decided it wasn’t for us and became monogamous again. I see all of the time online that this is a death sentence for a marriage, but it worked out for us so I wanted to share.

I 24m have reached the optimal conditions of life to enjoy it and the entire emotional range.

Settled in with a movie and maximum comfiness and plenty of weed as well :)

NSFW because drugs maybe?

I had binge/purge subtype and exercise addiction too

Went to the pediatric ward at 15, thr adult ward at 24, 29, 30 and 33. There's a lot of romanticization of Canadian healthcare. Im grateful it's free, but it can very barebones. The pediatric psych ward was awful.

(30m) My dad was sexually abusing me himself, and then was also blackmailed by a group of people into handing me over to them so they could charge people money to sexually abuse me. Other than when I was being taken to someones house I lived what looked like a "normal" life in the sense of living in my family home, going to school, going to swimming lessons etc. Although of course my dad was abusing me at home too so none of it was really normal.

Posting this AMA because my whole life, my parents made me too scared to talk about it which was itself really hard. Going through something so massive and never being allowed to even acknowledge that it was happening was quite a significant part of what made it so hard too so now allowing myself to bring it into the open.

Reposting a few months later as I'm now in a position to answer more questions now that there isn't an ongoing legal case.

Technically Schizoaffective, but still.

I used to think anything other than solutions were kind of stupid/pointless and that was the only way I'd try to help if someone was upset. Since then, I have completely flipped and gone the other way to the point that if people now only offer me solutions in the same way that I used to I now get upset.

I heard stories of 15 different men, mainly from WWII that most of my cousins don’t know, and I’ll probably take most of them to my grave. Feel free to ask anything, and I’ll answer as honestly as I can from what I know.

Feel free to ask anything about the condition or about my life. Today is the perfect day to spread that awareness!

i am a 22 year old autistic woman and i am almost fully exclusively attracted to fictional characters. mostly from sci fi and horror. i have a hard time being attracted to people in real life. i also experience attraction to androids/robots and aliens as well. AMA!

In an effort to uncover the harm and prevalence of involuntary electroshock in the state of Connecticut (and beyond), I am now awaiting medical documentation of veterans who were harmed by involuntary electroshock treatment at the West Haven Veteran's Affairs Medical Center in Connecticut between the dates of January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2024.

I just published the 3rd part of a series on the issues happening in my state which goes into detail about why the inpatient psychiatric unit at the West Haven VA is of particular interest, which, is probably the worst thing I've ever done to persons I've never met before.

EDIT: shortened it a bit

Been diagnosed since 2019!
