TIFU By doing LSD

I've done LSD twice in my life, the first time I had a good experience and that led to me wanting to do it again, biggest mistake of my life and im glad im not dead.

I took the tab, roughly a couple hours into tripping I was mid way through smoking a joint and i felt my left arm and leg go numb, of course i got worried and didn't know what to do so i ended up just trying to go to sleep and deal with the situation when i was not tripping. Woke up the next morning, went to the hospital and told them about my numbness and didn't mention the fact that my vision seemed a bit fucked up because i assumed it was from the lsd. They said if the numbing doesn't stop come back in 48 hours but since it was getting better I (stupidly) decided to not go back, a week went by and i realised my vision was still fucked up. Went back to the hospital and told them about my "vision damage" and they immediately rushed me in for a bunch of tests and a ct scan, within a couple hours i found out i had a stroke and after an mri scan a few days later, found out it was directly caused by the lsd. This is possible however it is EXTREMELY rare, so much so that the main doctor who's care i was under had never seen LSD induced stroke his 30 year career. It's now been a couple weeks and i'm on pills potentially for life and i've lost around 40% of my vision to the left. I should recover as I am only 18 and my brain still has years of development left and can rewire itself and fix it and even if my vision doesn't come back my brain will supposedly compensate. Don't fucking do acid.

TLDR: I did LSD, had a stroke but left it for a week. Extremely rare and unlucky but with enough time I will recover.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
