PENIS FRACTURE (6 weeks post Op) AMA

Hey everyone,

So, I’m (29M) officially part of the unlucky but elite club of guys who have fractured their pen 1 s. About 6 weeks ago, my girlfriend and I were in the middle of what I’d call a very enthusiastic session when I heard the pop. If you’ve read about it before, I can confirm—it’s real, and it’s terrifying. Right after, I lost my 3rection instantly, and pain set in almost immediately. There was swelling, bruising, and a general sense of oh sht, this is bad. My d! *k looked like I had a coke bottle of blood on the side of it😖

I wanted to cry so bad but tears wouldn’t come out lol. We didn’t waste any time and rushed to the ER. The doctors took one look and fast-tracked me for surgery. I became the ER special exhibit for the time I was there lol I had to show my Johnson to so many doctors and nurses. I’m sure it’s quite a medical curiosity to witness. Less than 12 hours later, I was in the OR getting things patched up. They confirmed it was a 3cm tunica albuginea tear, and thankfully, no urethral damage. If you ever want to make yourself queasy look up pen! s degloving surgery….yeah it’s as terrible as I looks and feels worse. But thank God for anesthesia and pain meds. I was discharged the next day with pain meds, instructions to rest, and a strong recommendation to avoid any activity for a while.

I’ve been lurking in this sub, trying to get as much info as possible about recovery and long-term outcomes. So far, healing seems to be going well—minimal curvature, no issues with urination, no major loss if length, and no scary surprises (knock on wood). But I want to make sure I do everything right to minimize any long-term side effects like ED or Peyronie’s. My urologist said PD is definitely a possibility in the future but we just have to monitor is closely and hope for the best.

Figured I’d share my experience for anyone curious or going through something similar since I was only able to find a few people who had shared their experience. Also, I can finally laugh about it a little, so if you have questions, fire away! AMA

I am a Christian Protestant, AMA.

I know this isn't the most interesting one there was.

I am in a church called the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren (Českobratrská církev evangelická), which (to my and Wikipedia's knowledge) operates only in the Czech Republic.

I'll try to answer basically anything!

I was once a bouncer for Aaron Mahtews, AMA

So, before I start. Let me give you a bit of context, Mathews is a reletively famous circus/magic performer who gained popularity from his "cainine circus" which was featured on Americas Got Talent a few years back (that is probably where you know him from), so after AGT got him famous, he became a traveling performer showing up at large fairs, theme parks, fundraisers, charitable BBQs pretty much anywhere that families would likely be present.

Anyway, now here is where I come in, a few years back he did a show at a kiddie event where he was doing one of his shows, the highlight of the show was once he ended, he would come down to the front and do activities with all the families, During this time, I was one of his "bouncers" if you will to control the lines. Now before you ask, I was not one of those bald headed Australian Accent bouncers that are like "Ya not on the list mate, beat it!" I just simply controled the crowds (along with one other person) as everybody got there turn.

I can answer things like what it was like, what I think of Aaron, what I did there. whatever you can think of

(note: I only dealth was a bouncer for the line-ups after the show during one event, I did not tour with him or anything of that sort so I will be unable to answer any questions of his show outside of what I witnessed)

I am a 25 year old woman and also a virgin. I've never been in a relationship or on a date. I'm not happy to be this way, but I also don't feel ready to change things.

On reddit I mostly see men talking about being virgins "late" in life, so I wanted to offer my perspective and possibly find other women like me. AMA :)

EDIT: Based on the comments I'm getting, I should clarify that this all mostly stems from my very traumatic childhood, which caused me deep insecurities and problems socializing. Problems which I'm currently working on. :)

I live in 40c/104 and dont have an AC.

Title. Apparently people (americans) in reddit think that an AC is somehow an essential part of your house. I don't have any financial issues buying them as I am pretty well off i would have no issue buying them for every room in my apartment.

I (22F) wear and use diapers AMA

Good day! My name is Hannah, and I wear diapers 24/7. I’ve worn them exclusively for the last year. I had a very unusual childhood and found that diapers are a great source of comfort for me. While I do still consider it kink related, it’s not sexual for me. It’s about comfort, convenience, and cuteness. While the diapers themselves aren’t sexual for me, related concepts are. That being said, super content warning if you decide to check my account out. So ask me anything! Just don’t be a big meanie 🥰

i recovered from depression almost overnight, ama!

for most of my life i dealt with a pretty chronic case of depression. i had absolutely no friends, relationships, or anyone at all to talk with, was suicidal, had eating disorders, self harmed, and was addicted to several drugs. one day i simply decided to have a "normal" life, left most of this behind and it remains that way. right now i'm procrastinating from studying and i'd like to give my advice to anyone that needs it! :)

I am the sole operator of the worlds largest legal psychedelic forum that focuses on product safety and mental health awareness AMA

I am the sole operator of the worlds largest legal psychedelic forum that focuses on product safety and mental health awareness AMA

Good day. It has recently come to my attention that I am the sole operator of the world’s largest legal psychedelic forum on the internet. It’s one of those situations where I’m just some dude, who has just realized that I actually have a lot more sway in the community than I expected. Kinda a an imposter syndrome situation. The forum is r/mysterymagicmushrooms

Despite relatively low engagement, we actually have thousands of daily viewers who come by for information and reviews on the safe use and consumption of legal psychedelics sold and available throughout most of the United States. This is a 10s of millions of dollars industry that is completely unregulated, and I’ve been working on developing a safety net and reviewing process for consumers to safely buy and use these products. Most of them operate in a very tenuous legal grey area, however you can reliably go dispensaries and smoke shops all across the country and get access to some completely safe, or some less so, legally sold psychedelic products. A big part of my passion for this subject is mental health awareness. These products saved my life, and from the testimonials I have received, have saved hundreds of others from mental health and addiction. Ask me anything. I’ll try to answer as much as I can. Just don’t try to be a backseat legal expert. I know what I’m doing, and have consulted with lawyers.

It’s become very apparent there are a lot of skeptics in the comments of my posts. I have a background in International Diplomacy/Economics and Public Relations and have worked in the mental health field and disability services for years and can prove this. I’m not trying to sell you anything…. Yet lol. This post is intended as a proof of concept to pitch to these companies in order to form a regulatory trust.

I am 18 and have been extremely isolated for almost my whole life by my parents homeschooling me and living in the woods. I would regularly go months without seeing a single other human besides my parents and brother. AMA

When I did see other people it was when my parents took me to the grocery store which they normally did by themselves. I’ve never had a single irl friend. Only ever really had one online friend who I’m starting to grow distant to. I feel alien, unreal, and alone in life. I have a job now as a dishwasher. They are the first ever people who are not family that I’ve talked to more than once. They know my name. That feels nice
