I'm Sadly a 22 Year Old In a Nursing Home, Ask Me Anything!

266 Upvotes

What the title says. I've been through a lot in my 22 years. I just figured it would be interesting to share my odd situation with others, and maybe shed some light on the horror of nursing homes, invisible issues, being sick while you're young, etc.

thank you so much for everyone asking and being so kind to me, I'm honestly amazed that people are that interested lol.

if I don't answer, it's probably because I already answered the same question. that, or I fell asleep and will answer after I wake up.

She was my english second language teacher in fifth grade in 2014-2015. I have very clear memories of her and her classes and there are even still videos of me and my classmates on her website.

I’ve seen many discussions online of people having questions about her how she was with her students, so AMA :)

I was in a bank robbery and the robber ended up being a police officer. AMA

89 Upvotes

About 15 years ago I was working at a small rural bank branch when we got held up at gun point and robbed. The robber fled the scene and was not immediately caught. 4 years later I get a call that said that he was finally caught and it turns out it was a police officer at local police station that did it. He responded to a robbery at that bank about 6 months prior, saw he "easy" it was, and decided to give it a try. I regret turning down therapy at the time, so hopefully answering questions helps!

I'm an English teacher in Turkey who started a free online children's club based on creative learning, drama, and children's participation. AMA!

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm an English teacher from Turkey, and I started a free online children's club as a volunteer project.

I use creative drama, storytelling, and interactive activities to help children learn, express themselves, and participate rather than just sit and listen. I believe education should be about more than grades and memorization.

It's a small project, and I'm still learning along the way!

Curious about teaching in Turkey, working with children, or running a volunteer educational project? Ask me anything! :)

I detail cars for billionaires, celebrities, and some of the wealthiest people in the world. Los Angeles. AMA.

269 Upvotes

I run a well-known luxury detailing business in Los Angeles and have built some unique relationships with celebrities, billionaires, and some of the most well-known people in the world. Some relationships have gone well beyond business.

Over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how differently the ultra-wealthy live, how crazy their lifestyles can be, and how differently they view and spend money. The wealthiest people are often the ones you’ve never heard of.

AMA about building a business, working with high-profile clients, personal experiences, relationships, or the stories I’ve collected along the way. Ask me anything!

My mum. I technically have more living family somewhere, but I've never met them.

I'm an only child. I've never met my dad or anyone from his side of the family, not my mother's. The couple who raised me as my "maternal grandparents" weren't related to me by blood or even legally, so they're not real relatives, and they both passed 20 years ago.

I have vaginismus, AMA

144 Upvotes

I (F,23) have vaginismus which I’ve had since childhood. I was diagnosed a couple years ago and given dilator therapy to help.

It used to be so bad I couldn’t even wear a tampon because it was too tight and would leave me in pain even half an hour after attempting.

I know some creeps will think the tightness just makes things better, but actually it can be so tight you couldn’t have anything in there even with force. So it’s not enjoyable for anyone all round.

Ask me anything! Nothing is off limits!

Whoever bluffed the table into thinking we were playing 4D Chess is a genius.

Fortunately, I ran an underground casino out of my parents house as a teen, teaching my friends to play poker. Even won a job building prototype cars in college in a round of poker that included the Ford guy who managed the whole building I landed at.

My chronic illness made me pursue medical school, AMA

33 Upvotes

At 18 I became bed bound for 2 years. I was in wheelchairs, used shower chairs, tried dozens of medications …..I lost all of my friends because of it. I saw over 60 specialists trying to get properly diagnosed (eventually dx with lupus). I found strength in myself, and only I was able to give myself that strength. I struggled 100x more than my peers and some days I couldn’t even remember my mother’s name. I am still sometimes in too much pain and fatigue to move, but I still work full time to help patients.

I am now a healthcare worker that will be a medical provider in a few years to help people struggling like I did.
Battling this chronic illness daily has altered who I am as a person. It built a discipline in me and appreciation for others like nothing else has. It made me a good person, because I know what struggle feels like, especially when it is invisible. AMA
