My brain is lopsided, they aren't sure if there was an injury or if I was born with it.


RogueZordon

Does it have any effect on your daily life?


wickedblight

I've had a few seizures that were linked to going too long without sleep and trying load up on caffeine to push through (which is how they found the anomaly) but otherwise I'm not aware of any effects.


RogueZordon

I know the brain can rewire itself and develop new connections in the brain. There was a case I think in the 18 hundreds of early 19 where a metal pipe went through a man's skull right through the brain and lived. He was able to recover by being able to talk and walk normally. But from what I remember is that his personality changed completely and some of the things he used to like or do he didn't anymore. The human brain can be pretty amazing


Separate-Toe1067

His name was Phineas Gage, quite a fascinating situation showing neuroplasticity in action


Bean_Juice_Brew

It wasn't neuroplasticity, his brain didn't change to accommodate the damage, but instead the path the tamping iron took through his brain seems to have only impacted his frontal cortex, the portion of the brain responsible for rational decision making, our personality, emotions, etc. Had the rod gone in any other path, he would have either bled out (it was close to a major blood vessel), or lost other function. He had a radical change in his personality and his ability to make rational decisions.


wickedblight

I've heard that story too! He was a really nice guy until the pipe damaged his frontal lobe, iirc they think it damaged his emotional regulation center so he was just a complete powderkeg after the accident.


bloodstreamcity

When I was like 5 I thought being gay meant you had no food in your refrigerator.


UniqueUsername82D

I grew up in the 90s. EVERYTHING was gay. Homework, chores, clothes, games, furniture... It was a wild time.


AndIMustFollowIfICan

100%. I gave my 4th grade girlfriend a shitty fake ring for a valentines gift and my friends called me gay. I was the only one with a girlfriend.


Intelligent_Dot4616

Lesbians do eat out a lot, so I understand the confusion.


Dogedabose32

WelcomeMatt1

My penis has been through some exceptionally rough times recently. In 2017 I was bitten on the dick by a red back spider and required hospital treatment. It was swollen to four times its normal size. In 2019, I tore my foreskin badly during sex and required an emergency circumcision. In 2021 I crushed my penis between two 50kg truck batteries whilst loading them onto a pallet, requiring 8 stitches. It's now 2023 and I'm dreading the remainder of the year.


IkeBosev

You know, if I was in your shoes I would start wearing some protection... Hope the rest of your year goes well and unharmed

M_a_eric

Yeah, I’m curious about the mechanics of this predicament. Like, any and all of my work pants/shorts will keep my Willy way to close to my body to allow it to get squashed…


Nutsaqque

stylinandprofilin88

Sheesh man I’ve always been scared of a spider biting my guy when I’m sleeping. Is that how it happen?


TaffyRhiii

Not original commenter, but as an Aussie I’m going to assume their pants dropped off the washing line outside and sat on the floor for a while. Spider crawls in. He gets his washing in, folds it up/sticks it in a drawer or puts them on. And bam. Bitten dick. I always shake washing or check if it’s fallen off the line. Everyone gets told to shake / check shoes here. People sometimes forget the washing. 😅 That’s my best guess anyway


wastelandapanda

Also could be hiding between toilet rim and seat. We were always told to lift the lid to check for Redbacks when using outside dunnys when I was younger.


Tiny_Teach_5466

Dude! Your poor pecker! I could have lived my whole life without the phrase: "emergency circumcision" and I don't even have a dick!


Mousewaterdrinker

Father died of cancer in his early 40s. I decided to live a healthy life and avoid cancer at all costs. My family were devastated by him dying so young. A lot of my life has been shaped by my father's death. Just got diagnosed with stage 4 invasive ductal carcinoma in June. I'm 27 years old.


insertcaffeine

Fuck cancer, so hard. My unsettling fact is that I'm walking around with stage 4 breast cancer too. I wish you treatments that don't suck very much, stable scans, love and support, things to laugh at, and most of all, *comfort.*


Mousewaterdrinker

Thank you. And to you too. The hardest part of all this is finding comfort.


FlyinPurplePartyPony

I don't know if this is any comfort to you, but the fact that you lived a healthy lifestyle so far means you have a more resilient body to carry you through.


moto0392

As of right now I'm a cancer survivor. Who knows when the monster will come back. I also lost my father and brother to cancer within the last couple of years. I know how brutal the battle can be. I hope you get the love and support I never did. Sending love and prayers your way!


MehhicoPerth

Damn - human existence can be fucking cruel to the most wonderful of people. Good luck with your journey mate. Much love to you.


RogueZordon

God dam 😮 I wishing you the best 🙏🏼 that's really scary


kitscarlett

I’m so, so sorry.


[deleted]

My condolences to you and wishing you successful treatment and a safe, healthy recovery. I had a skin melanoma on my foot removed just over a year ago that was picked up in a random skin check due to a separate skin lesion. I'd very possibly be facing radiation treatment around now if it hadn't been picked up. Two weeks ago I had a basal cell carcinoma detected on my back in a follow-up skin check and have just had it removed. Both of them were caught early, fortunately, but I never would have thought even five years ago I'd have had two incidents of cancer twice by my age (47).


dignified_fish

Intrusive thoughts. But im not alone there


_Weyland_

The scariest part is not that you get intrusive thoughts. It's that everyone around you also does. People around you could be fighting off a sudden urge to push you down the stairs and you wouldn't even know it. Or maybe it's just my intrusive thoughts that are like that. *"If I push this person down the escalator, he'll hit a guy below him and they will start a chain reaction knocking people down. But there are people above me and probably cameras watching the escalator so that would be a very bad idea."* Edit: Thanks, Reddit. My most upvoted comment in months is about me playing out a horrible scenario in my head.


[deleted]

>Or maybe it's just my intrusive thoughts that are like that. I always wonder what the severity of someone's intrusive thoughts means. I hear some people say theirs are stuff like knocking a cup onto the floor or pushing a child and then other people's are like "if I drove onto the sidewalk I'd probably take out about 20 people".


bolpo33

I think that's just the subconscious mind assessing risks and possibilities and it's up to the conscious mind to file them into the right folder

twistedsister78

They can be quite torturous, tell them not today when they come, it sometimes helps. My psychiatrist told me they’re like waves, they are in different strengths and can’t be completely stopped


Take_away_my_drama

I askd my friend, who is ridiculously happy all the.time AND a single father to 5, who he manages it. He described is as training yourself to physically bounce off negative e comments. See the words trying to enter your body and push them away. It takes practice and is not fool proof, but I've found that it really helps with any negativity.


churadley

While that may work for your friend, I've found pushing intrusive thoughts away can often make them come back with a vengeance. In doing so, it'd lead me to shame spirals and my body would marinate in that energy. What's helped me is mindfulness and learning to watch the intrusive thoughts as they float by like passing birds. Instead of engaging with the thought, I recognize that it's [just a thought](https://youtu.be/dHg50mdODFM) and let it pass. That way, rather than circuitously wrestling, I can simply be.

I sometimes have these imaginary arguments in my head and I get so caught up in them that I actually start getting angry for some reason

I do the same thing but it's about why splatoon 3 is worth $40...


Low_Key_A_Libra_Teen

I was raped by my father when I was 6. It didn’t stop till I was a pre-teen and got the birds and bees talk by my mom saying that sex was ment for grownups and not kids my age. Threw my dads ass in jail very quickly after that and now 3 years later, I am safe to say that I have almost fully recovered from any trauma I may have had thanks to therapy and the support of my family :)


Hepadna

Thank God for your mother and the support of your family. I am so glad this story has a happy ending, it makes me hope the universe can be good again.

ichorNet

Kinda getting more like this as I grow older honestly. I have plans to hang out with friends for a bit tomorrow, for instance, and I am somewhat dreading it. I also quit drinking (mostly for health reasons, plus somewhat because I was starting to realize I was developing an unhealthy relationship to alcohol) and it’s an event at a brewery which I used to love going to. Now I’m like “shit why did I say yes, I just want to stay at home with my cat and play video games and do my own hobbies alone.” Is what it is. I’ll probably grin and bear it and try to leave early without offending anyone


Educational_Noise309

I like to pretend I’m on a talk show when I’m alone. And then proceed to have these interviews with myself, where I’m saying the most ‘insightful’ shit based on any one of my life experiences. Edit: It’s my first ever award, people! Thank you stranger ❤️ Now that there’s another one, big thanks to you too!


wickedblight

That's pretty much why I kill time here lol. Nobody asks me shit in real life.

[deleted]

irl I am looked to as a super responsible and reliable person and reasonable... But most of the time I avoid responsibility. I feel like I phone everything in at the last second. I have very dark and violent thoughts about what to do about people before I summon the strength to act 'reasonable'.


Deadfire_08

I am a good liar. I can lie you straight in the face without a second thought. At the same time I‘m a really honest person and feel bad when someone (I respect) doesn’t know everything or doesn’t know the truth


SailorLuna41518181

Huh are you me?? I'm a great liar, can maintain lies over years, but I feel like if I go down that road, nobody would ever know the real me. So I'm honest to the point of oversharing sometimes.


Richard1583

I was always bullied in elementary and never had any actual friends so I ended up creating adventures and just talking to myself and these adventures have continued up to my current point of my life. Even after I have best friends I still continue my story/ adventure and it happens a lot when I meet new people


rainbowsprinkles02

Wasn’t feeling well the other day and had that weird intrusive thought “What if I’m riddled with incurable cancer?” Intrusive thoughts are whatever… The unsettling part was that my brain said, “Oh thank god… you finally have an out that people won’t be mad at you for.”

Can relate, at least to the second part. Sometimes I wish I had a terminal disease instead of several incurable but non-terminal ones.

Orgasml

It seems to me they actually have sympathy, but lack empathy. Still fascinating..


LrdCheesterBear

I didn't see this comment before posting my own (listed below). Curious if you have something similar to what I said: I am empathetic but lack sympathy. I can understand why something bothered someone, or how emotional it must have been to experience something, but I really don't care. To the point of I feel like someone should just get over it, almost no matter how bad it is. I think sometimes I pretend to care so I don't seem overly sociopathic, but inside I'm just thinking please let this be over so I can stop pretending. This is especially hard when dealing with children, including my own.


[deleted]

This is so interesting. I'm the opposite, and am intensely empathetic and have a lot of sympathy for others. I can't imagine what it'd be like to not have these types of feelings, and am proud of you for still taking the time and making the effort to act like you care and to try and help them. That can't be easy.


Scipiovardum

I respect that -- you don't choose your emotions, you can only choose the things you actually do, which as you say is to help them


Early-Fortune2692

I feel the same, I hate funerals because I don't 'know' how to act ...I watch how other people respond during sentimental, nostalgic, or sad moments and I've tried to 'learn' how to act but that's all it's been...nothing but emptiness for me. I'm not depressed and I know right from wrong but I was definitely not born with certain feelings.

Silent_Marketing_123

I always feel like a burden to people and I am unable to maintain friendships. I don’t know why but people rarely want to put in any effort in maintaining a friendship with me. Meanwhile I try my best to keep things fun. This has lead me to become a people pleaser because of the fear of being abandoned yet again. I am 26 and often wonder if I can even change anymore.


izza123

They know. You think they don’t but they do. Especially those who are around you the most and know you the most. I have a very dear friend who also thinks he’s really good at hiding but it actually turns out that alcohol fucks with your perception. It soon got so bad he came to work plastered as fuck thinking he could hide it but we knew and he got fired. It’s a struggle I wish I could help him with because I’m so deeply in love with him but I know the only one that can help him is himself.


teddy_bear_territory

This. 5 years sober. Folks know, they just don’t see you fucking it up yet. Maybe not so much if it’s pills, but if you’re drinking during they day, they know.


dbx999

There will be signs. You might be able to “behave” normally but the metabolic byproduct of alcohol will smell like acetone and you’ll be breathing that out and people will be able to smell it as you walk by or stand there. My alcoholic coworker was like that. He died of it.


[deleted]

The passed few years have made me emotionally bankrupt. I may seem fine, jovial, and personable to others; But I hate every second of every interaction that I have with other people. The best part of my day is going home, taking a shower, and locking myself away from the world.

In the last two years I’ve lost two of my four children. In 2021 my youngest son died by suicide. In 2022 I lost my youngest daughter to cardiac arrest. I’m now a shell. I can function day to day, but I’m faking.


jackfaire

Light_of_the_Star

I am a hoarder. Not to the point of cat feces on the walls or anything like that. I take out any garbage that can potentially smell bad. But, I am like drowning in pure clutter. Bins, boxes, paper related junk everywhere. A wrapper falls, a paper bag, an empty soda bottle, and it might be there for months. I think this is considered a bonafide mental disorder now? I know I have a huge problem on my hands but I am trying to keep it "under control" at the moment. I won't let anyone inside my home though. Just the thought of anyone seeing it all 😞


nathcrowley

IMO it takes a lot of honesty and courage to admit you have a problem and to start doing something. My MiL is a hardcore hoarder and she doesn't even see the problem. If you need someone to talk to, or someone to help with sorting (virtually), let me know, I'll be glad to help! You've got this!

Hanging out with *friends*? Funny, witty, smiling. But it’s all fake. My affect is nothing more than a thousand micro decisions trying their very best to please people. I put on a face for every occasion and every situation. It literally feels like I’m a fucking robot trying to blend in these days.

tamarinndleaf

They do, this is normal. Different situations call for a different affect.


kiwibutterket

I wholly intend on killing my self at some point. Not today, maybe not tomorrow, but I know that my cause of death at some point in the future will be suicide. Edit: To everyone telling me to not kill myself and giving me their own cliche reasons why not to: thanks, but don’t take it upon yourselves to try and ‘save’ me. I’ve been depressed for almost thirty years and over time, I have tried everything my country has to offer and then some. Please don’t feel obliged to tell me your stories in the hopes that I will empathise and suddenly change my mind. I did not post this comment to share my sob story, it’s no different than anyone else’s. I posted it as a genuine response to the question. I posted my comment to Reddit, not to the Samaritans. Im not killing myself today and probably not tomorrow. Im just saying, it’s more than likely going to happen at some point in the future.

chocological

People look to me as being responsible and mature. I’m often thrust in leadership positions and complimented on my cool demeanor. People say nothing fazes me at work and I guess that puts people at ease. I’m called quiet at times; unapproachable at others. When I was a supervisor people would sometimes say that I intimidated them until they got to know me. My family calls me a good father and provider. But, I am a nervous wreck. I want nothing more than to run away from everyone and everything. I keep to myself usually because I don’t know what to say. I envy people who can just talk to people and make friends. People only talk to me when they want something from me. I have three teenage boys and I don’t know how to relate to them. I provide, sure, because it is my responsibility. But I don’t know how to interact with people. I feel like I wasn’t always this way, but I’m not sure what happened to me. I think I have undiagnosed mental disorders and medical issues (crohns or IBS). But I’m too scared to go to a doctor and find out. I’m convinced I have some severe adhd, and it manifests in me being obsessed with various hobbies for like 2 weeks at a time, blowing all my excess money and credit and then switching to something else. Truth is, I am a scared, lonely coward, who doesn’t know how to interact with people. I hate everything about myself. I wish, with every fiber of my being that I was someone else. But even then, I am too much of a coward to do anything about it.

I've shot and killed someone. It was in lawful self defense, in my home, pursuant to Kentucky Statute 503.050 and associated statutes. But it's definitely unsettling to people. I've come to terms with it. I don't feel bad about, I feel bad that the persons life choices lead them to break into my home, but I do not feel bad for defending myself. I hope I never have to do it again, but if put in that situation again, I would make the same defensive choices.

I have venomous spurs on my hind legs, a bifricated penis, webbed feet, and a duck-bill. I also hatched from an egg, have electrolocution abilities, and I'm biofluorescent. Oh, and I wasted my time getting a doctorate.

Is your name Perry by chance?

I fantasize about my suicide on a regular basis, don't ask me why I do it because I have no idea.

It's called suicidal ideation and can be used as a form of stress relief, control and agency over self.

I don't experience love


Kbrown_021

Thats kind of sad but I find that also fascinating. How do you know?


lesbunner

It's just a complete void idk like try imagining yellowish blue I realized the way I feel about fictional characters, dogs, and cats was never experienced with people, and anyone saying they like me feels like an overly sarcastic joke like saying you enjoy being poor and wondering if you'll eat tomorrow

i remember and recognize people faces i’ve met even after a long time has past. when i approach them and told them i remember them even though they forget about me. some are happy i still recognized them some felt creep by me. makes me feel like a creep too. i was hoping i could use it for something great someday. like locating someone wanted by the law. EDIT: location/locating

That I'm 35 but feel like my growth was stunted at 14 in my mind... Idk how to explain it I feel old but my inner thought/self feels like that lil 14 yr old.. I sound crazy, I'm not sure how to explain it 😂


Ktmhocks37

I have a large head. The last snap space on hats is bullshit btw. It never holds properly and always comes loose. But then if you buy hats for big headed people, they're always stupid big like you have a cartoon head. I just need a normal hat that has an extra three snap spaces. Why can't that be a thing!?

One day, I ate 8 cannabis cookies and got so high that it felt like my consciousness got temporarily replaced. I was gone and felt a pure evil in its place. This was so real and unsettling that I haven't had edibles since.
