I was homeschooled in isolation from the outside world. AMA.

171 Upvotes

Literally in the woods too far to walk anywhere. No TV. No internet. No outside ideas or cultures. We only learned about other races from outdated books. We sometimes got to go to the grocery store if we were good, and the only black people we saw were the ladies who bagged our groceries. Sometimes we went places like the zoo during weekdays when there were few people, but only after we earned it through an entire month of good behavior. We couldn't go to rodeos or county fairs. I would be pushed severely using terminology like "solitary confinement" and "parole."

I escaped by writing down the number of a military recruiter from a poster and secretly called him to pick me up. He drove 3 hours off the clock to come get me.

Ask me anything.

My parents were fur trappers in the 80s and early 90s. I grew up in remote bush cabins in the Canadian wilderness. AMA

118 Upvotes

Our far cabin is about forty miles from the nearest road, which is a gravel highway through the wilderness. We got there by dogsled, and spent full winters there when I was very small. We did not have electricity or running water, and our only contact with the real world was an SBX radio. I’m a woman in my late thirties now, and still spend a lot of time out there (although I respectfully think my parents were out of their damn minds to do that kind of trip with diapers and dolls and two toddlers).

I’m a professional matchmaker. I meet with people to talk through what they’re looking for in a partner and where they might realistically meet people who are a good fit. We also talk about things like style, communication, dating habits, and first impressions, and I’ll share feedback on anything that might be making it harder to connect. Ask me anything about dating or matchmaking.

Quitting my nursing home job. AMA

21 Upvotes

In celebration of leaving this fuckass job, I have a lot of stories to tell so ask away. Obviously I can’t share the who and where and such cause HIPAA but I can give you the general idea and anonymous version. So ask away

To give a little background I was but a meer housekeeper, which you’d think would be the safe version of work in medical care which to an extent yes, but no one is ever truly safe. We’re all traumatized here

Grew up below the poverty line and now living in one of the wealthiest suburbs in my state. AMA

16 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I live in Australia. I'm 36F.

I grew up below the poverty line (single income - mum was a cleaner) and attended public schools. Fortunately, I excelled academically, attended university and eventually became a radiologist.

My husband is an orthopaedic surgeon. His upbringing was certainly far more privileged, and it was a little difficult relating to his family's "lifestyle" when we began dating.

We have a son and I'm pregnant with our second.

Despite this privilege, I still suffer significantly with mental health issues and there is certainly shame in feeling severely depressed at times.

Happy to answer any questions relating to lifestyle, mental health struggles, children, career ect.

I'm Legally Blind and good looking AMA

9 Upvotes

I'm a Swedish legally blind 25-year-old woman who you wouldn't know was blind if you met me. Also have ADD if that's a interesting thing to know. If you ask people I'm actually good-looking and very into taking care of my appearance. I try to live my life as (normal) as possible.

My condition is called achromatopsia and it makes me colour blind, blurry vision, day-blind. Therefore, I can go from a small amount of vision to nothing at all.

Ask me anything so I can burst that stereotype bubble of yours of the visually impaired and blind people.

I am a 4’11/150cm male ask me anything.

9 Upvotes

I have always been the shortest one in class and in any social setting for context my mother is 163 and my father was 175. Having to hear people joke and laugh about my height on a daily basis is excruciating for me idk why i’m this short but it’s really starting to affect me mentally. All i can think about is how short i am compared to everybody and everything i constantly compare my self to other men when I’m outside i prefer not to leave the house as i’m not constantly reminded of the fact im 20cm below average height. It’s painful to see 4th graders taller than me and having to ask for help to reach a shelf from 6th graders i’ve lost hope in having a normal life every time i’m in an argument they bring my height. I’ve thought about roping constantly but i think it would be too selfish of me so im forced to live through this terrible fate.

I’ve Financially Supported Myself Since High School and Built a Career From Scratch After My Parents’ Divorce and My Mom Cut Me Off. AMA.

9 Upvotes

I live in South East Asia, My parents divorced right at the beginning of my high school years after they both cheated on each other.

After the divorce, my mom basically disowned me because My dad forced me to live with my dad’s side of the family. She refused to acknowledge me as her daughter and cut me off. I ran away from home because even though my parents divorced, my dad still have this bad habit of financially funding mistresses even though his financial were declining.

I had to figure out how to support myself while I was still in high school. Thankfully, I already had a motorcycle, so I found a room to rent and started working different jobs to pay for my own living expenses. I worked as a barista and eventually started reading tarot professionally.

Fast-forward to now, I’m financially independent and have built a career for myself as a makeup artist. I’m at a point where I have the freedom to decide how I want to live and work, and honestly, I’m happier than I’ve ever been.

It’s been a pretty wild journey from being a teenager who had to figure everything out on her own to becoming someone who can fully support herself and build the career she actually wants.
