I used to think you could have a heart attack if you failed to fall in love.

When I was little, I used to belive that I could be a better football player If, at school, I drunk at the same fountain as one of classmates that played football and were good at it. One day I tried, and I dribbled one of the best mates playing football and then scored a goal. I thought my belief was real, actually not, I know I was just lucky.

There's an episode of "Bear in the Big Blue House", where Bear says that you should go to the bathroom even if you're in the middle of doing something.

I took that a bit too literally, and thought that it meant that if you were in the middle of doing something, you *had* to go to the bathroom.

So, whenever I set out to do something, I'd pause and go to the bathroom whenever I was halfway through, regardless of whether nature was actually calling.

When I was a child, I used to believe that when I had new sneakers, I could run faster. One day I told my parents that I wanted a new pair because I had heard that crazy story and when my parents bought me a new pair, I tried and I really felt I could do it ):

When I was young, I used to think that for the night to turn the day, everyone in the world would have to be fully asleep. When I couldn't sleep, I thought the world was waiting for me to fall asleep for it to turn day instantly, and then I would wake up.

When i was little i always had dreams where i could fly, so i used to believe that if i ran a lot, i could rise and fly like in my dreams.

I used to believe that someone was watching me while I was sleeping, that's why I used to sleep early with the lights on.

When i was a child like in kinder garden i used to believe the girls didn't eat like never and i know is very weird but when i was in the break of my school all the boys buy food or eat something but the girls didn´t do that they always play with their toys or play with other girls.
And other thing i used to believe is every country of the world has the same time like in Ecuador we were in the morning so Spain too or United States too.

I used to think that autism was some sort of childhood disease.

When I first heard the expression "going right to your thighs", I thought that meant that instead of cellulite, there'd be chewed-up food that didn't even go into your stomach or intestines stuffed between your skin and your muscles. Even to this day, I'm still grossed out by the expression.

As a middle schooler I believed your body was just full of milk and I was terrified of babies because I believed they could kill you by removing too much milk from your body

Apart from Hindu vegetarians and underfed people in poverty, I used to think all skinny people were anorexic, even when they ate normally like everyone else.

I used to think that having an eating disorder or dietary condition sort of depended on where people lived or originated from, because it would sound strange to say (probably as a teenager) that your parents were Italian, but your diet was free of pizza and pasta, or any other food associated with a certain culture!
