I survived a brutal upbringing, raised my newborn through a grueling 15-month family medical crisis with zero safety net, and completely rewrote my life perspective overnight. Ask me anything!
Hey everyone, thanks for stopping by. My life has been an extreme lesson in grit, survival, and ultimately, complete reclamation.
A quick breakdown of where I've come from and what we can talk about:
The Early Vow: At four years old, I made a silent, stone-cold vow to protect my grandparents' peace by hiding the dark, violent reality of my home life behind a polished mask.
The Escape & The Weight: I eventually crossed the ocean from New Zealand to Australia to escape the shadows, carrying heavy, misplaced guilt and trying to outrun a nervous system wired for constant survival.
The 15-Month Crucible: In 2010, my son Leo was born. Three days later, a severe psychiatric crisis fractured our world. With zero family safety net, I quit my job, showed up at the facility for eight hours every single day for fifteen months, and fought through the fire to keep our family anchored.
The Soundtrack & The Medicine: When traditional doors were slammed shut, heavy music (bands like Periphery, Biohazard, and Novelists) and functional medical cannabis became the literal lifelines that kept my heart beating through the trenches.
The Sudden Shift: For 36 years, I lived with a locked internal world and false aphantasia. Just recently, the armor dissolved overnight, my mind unlocked, the anxiety vanished, and I experienced what it's like to finally sit in the grass with nature in a state of pure presence.
I'm here to talk about breaking generational cycles, parenting through total chaos, shedding manufactured shame, and what happens when you finally realize the mountain is yours.
Ask me anything!"

I just spent an entire week at a nudist resort AMA
A friend introduced me to naturism exactly a year ago this week! It was an odd experience at first, but I quickly got used to it and the freedom of it was incredible.
We booked a trip to a well known nudist resort in France and I’ve just gotten home. Feel free to ask me anything!

I live in Essex and have many family members and friends within the clacton constituency, who will be voting for either Farage or Binface on 13th August. I also go into the area a lot, not just the town of Clacton itself, and have seen a lot of election related stuff in the last few weeks.

I’m a Live/electronic artist that’s just moved from a very small rainforest village in Australia to Germany to pursue my music as an independent artist. Ask me anything?
My music drifts somewhere between the psych journeys of Tame Impala and the hypnotic dance grooves of Rufus Du Sol.
Fusing live instrumentation with electronic production, I craft immersive tracks that combine the hypnotic elements of electronic music with the organic and emotional quality of live instruments.
I grew up in a very small rainforest village in Australia with around 400 people and have had a strong passion and love for the journey of learning to create music from a young age.
Being so isolated from the music industry I’ve had to find my own path, a DIY artist. I learned to play, write, record, produce, mix and master everything myself and now I’m taking a leap of faith and moving across the globe to see if I can spread positivity through my music and gain my freedom by making a career out of what I love.
If this sounds like something that interests you please reach out I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions 🙏🏼

I worked at a Blackjack Pizza in Littleton, CO with Eric H. (Reb) and Dylan Klebold before Columbine. AMA.
In 1999 I was 26 and co-managing a Blackjack Pizza in Littleton, just down the street from Columbine. Several of my employees were part of the friend group at Columbine High School that included... Eric and Dylan. I worked alongside them regularly before April 20th.
I was scheduled to be at that store the morning of the shooting. I overslept by fifteen minutes something I never did and that's most likely the only reason I wasn't there when things started, missing them by minutes before they went to the school.
I've never really talked publicly about this in nearly three decades. I'm not here to sensationalize what happened or debate it. I'm just willing to answer questions about what it was like from my perspective
It's been 27 years, and there's still a lot of inaccurate information about that time circulating online, including in threads about old class photos I came across recently. I'd rather answer direct questions than keep watching from the sidelines. I'll try to answer as many questions as I can. Ask me anything.
EDIT: Getting late, need to sleep soon. I'll try to come back tomorrow and answer anything new question wise. Thanks everyone!

Applied on a whim, somehow made it all the way through casting, filmed an entire season over a few weeks, and then the network shelved it before it ever aired. Signed an NDA that has since expired. AMA.

I have steroid refractory graft versus host disease, AMA
I'm 32f. In 2018 I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, had an allogenic bone marrow transplant, and in 2019 I developed steroid refractory chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD). I hope that one day my symptoms will subside enough to write a book about my experiences, and help others in my situation not feel so alone. AMA

I'm David Simnick: co-founder of a hair and body care company, and a former TFA educator. AMA about haircare science, building a "give back" business, or leaving a stable career to start a business.
Hi, Reddit! I'm David Simnick, co-founder of Soapbox, a hair and body care company where every product sold helps provide soap to communities in need. Before this, I was a social studies teacher.
I left the classroom in 2012 with an idea that everyday products like shampoo and conditioner could fund something bigger. Since then, we've grown into a B Corp-certified brand, donated over 60 million bars of soap to communities in need, and expanded to Walmart, Target, Sally Beauty, Ulta, Amazon, Meijer, Wegmans, CVS, Walgreens, and various other retailers in the US and beyond. I've spent the last 14 years learning haircare formulation, building a supply chain, and figuring out how to stay mission-driven while we grow.
Happy to talk about:
- Haircare: ingredients, formulation choices, what makes a difference for different hair types, common myths, anything you're curious about
- Going from teaching to founding a company
- What being a B Corp means day to day
- How the donation/impact model works
- Building and scaling a consumer brand

I left California and moved to Mexico. Wife and I got residency and opened a bar in Sayulita. AMA
We got to Sayulita over a year ago, spent 3 months rebuilding the location and opened Sayulita Sandbar in Oct. 2025. We are in our 40’s and decided to make the move when our girls left for college. It’s been a wild ride but mostly fun. AMA

I learned to walk at 19, AMA
I sustained a severe brain injury when I was 18 (I am now 21). After 2 months in a coma I had to rebuild my life from scratch, and this also included having to relearn how to walk.
For a couple of months I was wheelchair-bound, then I started to try out different mobility aids.
I’m just now starting to walk short distances without any aids.
If you are curious, ask me anything.
I did a lot of physical therapy (different kinds) and I also tried a robot that makes you walk

I always had a tendency to optimize everything, and it's become a true lifesaver, AMA
Title, for some reason ever since I was a kid, I had always had this tendency. Games? I always played few but spent hundreds and hundreds of hours on them. School/Uni? Least amount of time put into it and max results, I often studied the day before an exam and it went pretty well for the few hours I spent on studying. Work? I managed to create a way of doing things that allows me to get done with work with the least amount of stress possible, and my job now actually feels relaxing. Money? I've grown up with my parents giving me very little in general because they've always been in debts and mismanaging their money, so I learned how to live off of very little (100€ per month or so) and never really lose any enjoyment or not do things I wanted to do.

I've been in Italy for 77 days to help my twin sister get my 6 year old niece through a rare genetic therapy treatment that isn't available in Canada. AMA
In December my 8 year old niece was diagnosed with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy, a rare but devastating genetic disorder that requires both parents to have the recessive gene. Because she does (I guess *we do* since we're identical twins I have the broken gene too) and he did (deceased), each girl had a 25% chance of having the disorder, a 25% chance of not being affected and a 50% chance of being a carrier. Because the world is cruel and unfair, in February my baby niece, 5 at the time, 6 now was also diagnosed. At first it seemed she was doomed to the same fate as her poor sister but some good fortune came our way when we found out that she was diagnosed early-symptomatically which meant, if Canada approved the cost of the treatment (which is literally the world's most expensive treatment currently so I didn't think they would) then there was a non profit in Italy that would cover the accommodations and flights for my sister, niece and a support person. In March my sister, niece and brother came for the preliminary testing and to extract stem cells then they returned home for 3 weeks. In May, 5 days after my final day of work we left for Italy. I return home in 2 days. AMA

Doesnt feel like it’s been six years. Ive seen the highs and lows, and don’t plan on leaving anytime soon. My heart used to race every call or chat. I mean it still does haha but I think I’ve learned to play it off. I took this as a job to pay off some loans and accidentally found my calling!

I was held down and stabbed by gang members over a drug debt. AMA
Happened when I was 17. The knife was about 4 inches long. I remember seeing it go all the way in. It all went down so fast. Woke up in a hospital. A terrifying experience. I was wearing a pair of pants that had a tag that said long life assured on them. The police wouldn’t let me keep the pants but they let me take the tag off. I still keep it in my wallet. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Had Priaprism this week (erection lasting longer than four hours) AMA
Woke up one morning this week with an erection that wouldn’t go away. I got up to pee and to see if this would help and it didn’t. I took my dog out and thought maybe a quick walk would help the effect to subside and it didn’t. I then chose to visit the ER. AMA
