TIFU by pretending to be someone else to en entire group of people and accidentally cat fished someone

Starting I want to say that, while none of this constitutes an excuse as everyone is responsible for their own actions, and I am aware my actions were inexcusable, please dont be too harsh at me as I am autistic, ADHD, have been found to have severe dpdr symptoms and C PTSD. My way of coping with things is still not very functional and im working on it.

I had never loved someone before February 5th 2025. I thought I had, but i only had a distant crush on a classmate. However, on February 5th 2025 I met one of the most amazing people ever. At the time I was unaware I had dpdr and Autism. That person had dpdr. We connected instantly but burned out fast as I started having panic attacks over minor things and I think she did too. I remained quite unable to let go for a long while. I still am, but thats not the point of this confession.

Last month, i entered a common gaming club server with an alt account. Initially I wanted to give her a gift anonymously. But when I talked to her as a stranger, she talked about how she was really upset because of me. And I ended up having an extended conversation with her.

That conversation broke me. And i completely dissociated. And another person started chatting with me and I started to chat back. I was in crisis mode for 4-5 days. And constantly talked with that person to cope. It even got flirty. In the end I realized what I was doing and confessed to that person along side with telling them I still love the other person. But people initially trusted my actual identity so much they thought that account was someone else by the same name.

TL;DR:
I, already engaging in questionable behavior, got into a severe dissociative episode and hurt someone I love while catfishing and using someone I met

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
