Yes, every knew about those ketchup popsicles...</p><h2>1.</h2><blockquote> <p>Wine, my parents kept it under the TV stand in their room. I&#39;d crawl into their room on all 4 (was around 6 at the time) and just sit under there. They couldn&#39;t see what I was doing because of the bed blocking view from that area. They probably saw me enter and think I was doing harmless kid things. Nope, just taking swigs of wine. - <a data-testid="comment_author_link" href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Ken_Lol/">Ken_Lol</a></p> </blockquote><h2>2.</h2><blockquote> <p>Salt. Just pure salt. I realized that this was a really weird thing to do, so I hid this. I kept some in my room in a little ziploc bag. This meant that at one time, people from a cleaning service found a hidden ziploc bag with white crystals in it. They never said anything, and I really hope they realized it was just salt and not cocaine.</p> </blockquote><div className="ad-splitter"></div><blockquote> <p>Years later, I ended up being diagnosed with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, it causes me to temporarily become confused, lightheaded, and pass out). It turns out that for me, the most effective and easiest way to keep my blood pressure high enough that I don&rsquo;t pass out is to eat a lot of sodium.
