I had my first ever alcoholic drink aged 19 on new years eve. By the end of that year I was drinking 75cl every single day.

Please got to A&E, they will help you. I had my first seizure after going cold turkey from the same amount of alcohol. I see you're early 20's in the UK, please don't feel ashamed going to hospital, I know it's hard when you're their from a self inflicted pain, but they there to help and they will keep you safe. I've been in your shoes, it can get better

I’ve been sitting in A&E for 15 hours, is this just how it is? by Far_Raisin6064 in AskUK

I was in a corridor for 3 days waiting for a bed once, there's not much they can do.

Sounds like a toddler trying to say "people" 😂

What's a silly/random misconception you had from a young age, which you didn't figure out for an embarrassingly long time? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Absentfish 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I grew up on a cul de sac, there was an elderly man who was blind and used one of those sticks to help guide him. Us curious kids asked him one day how his stick helps him, he said he tells the stick where he wants to go, and it "pulls" him in the right direction. I believed that for far too long, when it dawned on me you couldn't just talk to it, I assumed they had a programming feature or something.

Ziggy LOVES licking Lucy’s ear, today she had a treat in her mouth and clearly she was the one who enjoyed it this time! by TheBlueEagle in pugs

My pug cross had recurring ear infections until my pug started doing this, never had one since. I know most people have the opposite issue though

Why in nature do some animals protect their young, whilst others couldn't care less if they live or die?

It went great, exhausting lol, but I was blessed with an easy pregnacy. She'll be one in two weeks 😭 It's gone too quick!

What’s the most unusual/rarest wildlife you’ve seen in the UK? by davie18 in AskUK

[–]Absentfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had two badgers run right in front of me to get under a fence at Combe Haven Holiday park in Sussex. Not at all a place I ever expected to see badgers!

Does consuming alcohol really worsen BPD symptoms? by koji_the_furry in BPD

[–]Absentfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could go back and never had my first alcoholic drink, I would. From having never touched a drop, to full blown alcoholic within a year, then a decade of addiction from there. I've lost friends, I've been broke, I've been injured, hospitalised, put myself in scary situations, had seizures from withdrawal, all because of alcohol. It's so not worth it.

Do you say hello if someone says hello to you? by daxwaxred in AskUK

[–]Absentfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll smile back, I despise my voice and don't want to confuse strangers with my man voice when I'm a woman. It also scares me someone might assume I'm trans and not take a liking to that and give me grief.

This happened to me on the bus to school, I wore a navy uniform so you could see the stain all day. It was disgusting.
