This one is about me. In my early 20’s I started having a lot of pain in my upper left jaw. My dentist said there was nothing wrong with my teeth and that I should go see a sinus specialist. Get to the ORL (ear nose and throat doctor) and they comment on how stuffed up I must be.
I’m slightly baffled, and say that I’m actually breathing much easier that day than usual. Aaand that was the day I found out that most people can breathe through their noses MOST of the time and not just on special occasions. Turns out I’m allergic to dust mites in a “how have you not had anaphylaxis and died” way, and had been experiencing an allergy attack for 23 straight years.
That doctors visit legitimately changed my life. I no longer had to choose between breathing and eating.

If you don’t know what’s everyone’s “normal”, then whatever you experience is your normal and you do t question it. Same thing happened when I got glasses for the first time at 11 years old. I had no idea everyone could see the leaves in the trees from afar, instead of just a big blob. It was amazing!

You'd be surprised. Didn't know i had a deviated septum till i was out of high school. I had been to doctors multiple times a year. Asthma, allergies mainly. And no one else had said a word about it. 1 operation later and my nostrils are clearer than i ever thought possible. Doctors aren't perfect and things can be missed quite easily.

I had a similar moment at age 19 when I was sent to the ENT for chronic sinus infections and learned that "normal" was actually being able to breathe through BOTH sides of your nose at once. Not just always one or the other. I was neglected and abused as a kid, and never taken to the doctor despite being ill from October to May every single year. And I'd broken my nose (and jaw, separately) as a child but didn't know it. We don't know what "normal" is other than our own experience, unless someone tells us otherwise.

There will always be outliers and no two people’s life experiences will ever truly be the exact same. At the same time, it’s important to recognize that, barring powerful genetic quirks and extremely unorthodox upbringing, many of us have very similar needs and drives that are shaped as much by our biology as by the environments in which we were raised.

For example, writer Ariane Sherine, who has written about living a long and healthy life, previously told Bored Panda that there are fundamental things that contribute to it. Things like exercise, good food, altruism, and quality relationships.

“Close, fulfilling relationships with others are one of the most important things when it comes to happiness, whether romantic or platonic. Studies show that the more close friendships and relationships you have, the longer you live. Volunteering and helping others are also likely to make you happy,” she said.

So just a little background so this makes more sense, one time when I was little like about 8, I was laying in bed looking out my window at the moon and suddenly I saw two moons. It freaked me out so I went to my mom, asking her if this was bad and she said “no, that’s normal” and sent me back to bed. Well, fast forward to me at about 17, I went to eye doctor with my mom to get my prescription updated. To keep it short, I told the doctor I saw two sets of letters, and he looks at my eyes closer and tells me I have a lazy eye, and that it’s not normal. So my mom, who’s right there, goes “that’s not normal?! I thought everyone saw double!” And the doctor was just like “.....no”. Turns out my mom had the same eye situation, but it was never addressed so she just figured everyone had it. Oops.

I have this too, now here's an interesting part: if you go too long without proper corrective mesures, your brain will actually permanently shut down the eye feeding it bad information.

Here's me!

I remember that, for a long time, I thought it was completely normal to not be able to get a full breath. I distinctly remember being 16 and asking my friends "you know that feeling when you actually get a full breath in your lungs and it feels AMAZING" and no one had any clue what I was talking about.

Turns out I had undiagnosed asthma for most of my life. Makes more sense now.

“There are other things that contribute to happiness and well-being including taking regular exercise, eating healthily, having enough money to feel comfortable, having job security, and enjoying experiences rather than possessions,” Ariane told Bored Panda.

“Self-care and taking time for yourself are also very important. But I'd say close relationships are probably the most essential things to happiness.”

Our biology more or less demands that we form tight-knit social bonds, be kind, and get enough movement. The vast majority of us are hardwired for this and it’s what makes us happy.

Psychology expert Suzanne Degges-White told Bored Panda earlier that our biology, as well as the culture we grow up with, shapes our attitude toward altruism, kindness, and being social.

"Many of us are raised to believe it is the 'right thing to do.' Basically, all spiritual belief systems have a version of the 'Golden Rule, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,'" she explained. "We also do good turns because we know that one day we may be in need of a little 'generosity from the universe,' so it's like putting 'money' into a karma account."

This was me until about two years ago.

I thought that Kiwis made everyone's mouth itchy. Like it was just part of the fruit experience. I also thought mangos were "hot" for everyone.

Well my wife informed me that I probably allergic to those fruit since mangos aren't supposed to burn your mouth and kiwis shouldn't make your mouth itch. I truly didn't believe her. Months later I'm choking on mango. I can't breath, my face is getting red. I couldn't even get the word put to tell her I couldn't breath. EpiPen and an ER visit later. I'm allergic to mangos and kiwis and a host of other tropical fruit.

No fruit should make your mouth burn(aside from the jalepeno and peppers). And no fruit should make your mouth itch or lips swell. Apparently that's called an allergy.

35 Strange Behaviors People Thought Were Completely Normal, As Shared In This Viral Thread I had a sleepover with a friend in middle school one weekend. I went to shower and she gave me a towel. It had a weird smell to it, but I couldn’t find any other towels inside the bathroom, so I used it by patting myself barely and just air drying.

Turns out her whole family shares a towel to prevent having to use new ones every time. I told her how weird that was and she was shocked to find out that my family has THEIR own towels to use, but we put them in the wash every 2 or so uses.

I didn’t sleep over there again.

“Humans are wired so that when we do something kind for another, we feel good about ourselves and neurotransmitters like endorphins and oxytocin have been shown to get a boost when we do something good for another. It is through cooperation that society functions, so the survival of the human race depends on being willing to help others. Family values, spiritual beliefs, and biology all play a part in this motivation," she said.

"Many of us take pride in being of service to others as it is culturally valued and we want to hold significance in our worlds. So when we do good deeds, we show others our willingness to help those in distress/need; we live out faith-based encouragement to treat others the way we would like to be treated, we uphold family values, and our brains get a positive jolt of happiness when we help others.”

In other words, as diverse as our goals, ambitions, and life experiences might be, there are some fundamental things that simply do not change. Realizing this is kind of inspiring, don’t you think? We’re not so different after all… with a few peculiar exceptions that are found in this list, of course!

Hubby learned to drive at 12yo. During the summer and holidays, he regularly drove his Grandad's truck into the fields to deliver everyone lunch and water. He also would drive the tractor to and from fields.

As a result, when I met him in his late 30s, he had a perfect driving record. His defensive driving was phenomenal. The only tickets he ever received were: driving without a seatbelt, and parking on the sidewalk. (The latter was right in front of our house and a b***hy neighbor called it in).

Fast forward 10 years. He goes to the eye doctor for the first time in 20 years. He needs glasses. The Night we pick up the glasses, he is driving towards a traffic light. As he rolls to a stop, he states: "WHOA, the traffic lights aren't star bursts anymore" Have they always looked like that????"

So this was actually me,but growing up my mom would always tell me to grab donuts from the Walmart bakery area and eat it while we walked around the store (we lived in the country so we only went to the store every two weeks). For a long time this proceeded until it was common practice and eventually I just did it without even telling her. Around early middle school a girl who has a crush on me sees me eating a donut in walmart and asks me if I just take those. I respond "of course", she proceeds to take one and eat it with me to prove she's as cool as me but I just don't understand.

I then relay to my mom how this silly girl had no idea walmart had free donuts.... And that's when she told me she had been paying for them for years. But I had not asked her permission for a long time so there is no telling how many donuts I unknowingly stole from Walmart.

It's not very often you get to find something strange out about yourself that you thought was perfectly normal.

I knew he did it at home but he always would then get in the shower after so I figured it was just a preface to showering. He said he balances them over the stall door so they don’t get “poop particles” on them. I told him no one else does this. He didn’t notice because in the men’s room he’s used for the last 10 years there’s only one stall. I’m not sure why no colleague ever asked him why he’s hanging clothes over the stall door...

This one is about me. I have loose ligaments/muscles/tendons/something in both of my shoulders. I’ve never gotten it looked at before, but I never know it wasn’t common for people’s shoulders to just kinda come out of the socket while they do different things.

Example being, if I carry anything with any real weight in one hand, and don’t focus on keeping my shoulder muscles tight, my arm will come out of the socket. It doesn’t hurt, and it goes right back in when I put the item down, but I was in middle school when I realized it wasn’t normal. And now it’s just a fun party trick.

This happened to me.
Growing up, I was conditioned by my mother to not only use soap on my body while showering, but to use it in my hair too. Doing this made my hair feel insanely rough and dry, but I kept at it thinking it was the right thing to do. On a trip to California to meet some friends I took a shower and they didn't have a bar of soap. I confronted my friend about it, asking what they used in their hair as a substitute for soap. Everyone in the room gave me a strange look and told me that soap wasn't supposed to be used for hair. I was around 18 years old when I found this out.

He goes “that.. that didn’t happen to you?” and I’m like “no.” Then he asks the rest of the guys in study hall “did any of yall have milk come out your nips during puberty?” They said no.

I worked with a guy who had some kind of gut problem and he'd be sitting at his desk, and vomit into a cup. Not a lot, but like a vurp. A few times a day, even in meetings. Finally, his boss talked to him and said that was not cool, and he should see a doctor. The guy was surprised. "Why?" He asked. He apparently had been doing this all his life.

He went to a doctor, and whattia know! They had medicine for his condition! The guy grew up in some country where his condition was never addressed, either because of poverty or neglect. Probably both.

But the damage was already done; everyone avoided the "vomit guy." He was eventually let go.

Wiping yourself with a wet cloth is more efficient (and feels better) than with a dry paper. After all, if there was s**t on your arm or anywhere else on your skin, you wouldn't just wipe it with paper, but you'd want to wash that part. So if there''s only paper available this seems quite reasonable.

At work, I'm a Senior Writer and I cover a broad range of topics that I'm passionate about: from psychology and changes in work culture to healthy living, relationships, and design. In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature.

When I first started dating my husband I realized he had peculiar behavior. He was seeing a therapist for about 10 years that told him he had a shyness disorder. He was fine with me but had a hard time looking in the eyes of people he didn't know while talking to them. Especially if they were close to him. The first time I noticed it was 6 weeks after we met. After a while I ended with a list of things that were not the "norm". He was intelligent top of his profession but a bit different. Then the seizures started about 2 years after we married. After a bunch of misdiagnoses he finally had an MRI and found a brain tumor. The type of cancer he has comes with a list of recognizable behavior changes. Textbook my husband. I showed his friends the list and his mom and they just told me he had always been like that. The dr said he probably had the tumor his whole life. I cannot for the life of me figure out how they thought it was normal and why they didn't take him to the Dr.

My husband throws all his clothes in the washer. Whites. Darks. Super dirty bondo sawdust paint covered clothes. All his white underpants and socks and tees are gray. I've tried to tell him to sort and do smaller loads. Not 4 sweatshirts and 6 jeans and everything else. Also he loads all that at once into the dryer and only runs it 30 mins at a time. So it takes forever to dry. I do laundry one day a week. I've gotten to taking his stuff out of either machine. Doing mine and putting his back. I guess his mom just washed like that all the time. Gross. And he will wear stuff with holes. Shoes undies socks jeans. Look homeless and it's so embarrassing. And his pants even with a belt never stay up. Captain buttcrack. All the time. He doesn't even buy pants correctly. Too long inseam. Too loose waist.

Something embarrassing I didn't know: What a toothache feels like. I always had great teeth and didn't have my first cavity until I was in my forties. And since I arrogantly thought my teeth would last forever, I didn't get regular checkups. When I did start to develop pain, it wasn't what I thought a toothache should feel like. I thought it was just sensitivity because it wasn't consistent and often was related to eating something cold. What I didn't know is that when you have an infection, it kills the nerve and that's why the pain would go away on it's own. I paid a heavy price for neglecting my dental health because multiple infections ended up draining into my sinuses, causing chronic sinus infections. The chronic inflammation resulted in polyps blocking my sinuses, requiring surgery. All because I didn't know what a toothache was supposed to feel like and didn't get regular checkups.

Squirrelly Panda 2 years ago

Some people cry easily, some find it impossible to cry no matter how sad. It has nothing to do with being depressed or stressed easily and totally how your body responds to emotional stimuli. However, see someone and get help if you think you might be depressed, have anxiety, or if the free flowing tears are hindering your life. I've learned to partly manage, partly live with mine.

I also was very emotional to stressful stuff, reacted strongly to sadness or anger. I have depression, and now as I'm treating it I don't react that strongly to things, bad emotions don't fog up logic and thoughts. I also had other symptoms too tho. So if you feel it might be depression it's good to check up with psychiatrist (not psychologist). Also, lots of people don't even suspect they have depression, they just think it's normal

It MIGHT be depression, or you just might be very good at expressing it. Be GLAD. I have a lot of trouble expressing emotion. I rarely laugh out loud, and I basically cannot cry.

So I was a mouth breather, which is why I could never chew with my mouth closed. We also discovered that I have a poor sense of smell because of it, but if I breathe through my mouth, I can smell it.
