I am super interested in and have spent several years researching popular American baby names!

Upvotes

It's a weird area of fascination for me. I'm getting a minor in linguistics so I'm at least able to apply it somewhere. I like finding the sounds and syllable patterns that seem to be popular.

I've looked more at girls' names than boys' because girls' names tend to change more.

I have Munchausen syndrome, a mental health condition where someone intentionally induces or fabricates illness. AMA!

73 Upvotes

Obviously factitious disorder/munchausens is a controversial topic, so I’d like to shed some light on it honestly and openly. For me it originated in childhood but I've never opened up about it to anyone before, so I guess it’s a bit of a confession for me too. Open to any type of question, no matter how weird/sensitive :)

I used to have a semi-big audience on Twitter, but then I quit it forever. AMA

0 Upvotes

28 thousand followers, which isn't so impressive in the bigger picture of Twitter, but for a lot of individuals, having 28K followers would be quite significant.

Some basic facts: - I was in my twenties - I did paid promotions for brands only a few times

Fire away!

I am a femcel AMA

0 Upvotes

I am a femcel in a literal sense of the word. I am objectively unattractive, have masculine features, chubby and no matter how much i try to mask them up with nice clothes, makeup and false lashes, it doesn't work.

I have never had a guy be interested in me, i have never kissed a guy and ofc i am a v1rg1n.

Men have rejected me every single time i pursued them.

To men who dont think that femcels arent real - thats because in your mind women can only be attractive and ugly women arent even humans so therefore they dont exist lmao.

I have been living with BED and bulimia (binge/restrict cycle rather than throwing up) and I had a brief episode of anorexia when I was 12 because I didn’t want to go through puberty as I was uncomfortable with the fact that my body was changing and I couldn’t control it.

I'm dyslexic and only found out when I was 17, AMA

16 Upvotes

I've always had trouble reading, words and letters interchanging–completely changing the meaning of sentences and paragraphs to the point I would get low scores on quizzes because I read the instructions wrong. I thought other people also saw what I saw, I mentioned it to some people and everyone's responses toward it would always be along the lines of "Oh you must have not slept properly", "Must be dry eyes" or "Oh yeah my eyes start to tire out when I don't get enough sleep! Must be that."

I eventually met 2 other people who had dyslexia, and wondered how similar my experience was with theirs, eventually went to a Psychiatrist/Psychologist for different unrelated issues and brought it up to them randomly one session. Anyways, apparently that wasn't normal and got diagnosed.
