He Has Health Issues
OP has low blood sugar and dehydration issues, so his doctor recommended drinking Gatorade.
A Neurodivergent Man
OCD causes OP to have problems with even very small changes to his routine.
Doctor’s Orders
OP’s therapist has recommended that he stick to small things, like drinking his favorite Gatorade so he can work on the bigger problems of his OCD.
Restocked at Last!
OP’s grocery store restocked their Gatorade, and OP quickly grabbed up all the red bottles.
A Mom Asks for Help
A mom asked OP if he could spare a few bottles for kids because her local grocery store was out of red Gatorade.
He Tried to Justify Not Helping
OP explained that he needed the red Gatorade for medical reasons and could not spare any.
And Mom Got Angry
The mom got angry and started yelling at OP and calling him selfish.
What to Do?
OP did not know what to do, so he ignored the mom, and she stormed off.
Redditors Weighed In
Redditors thought that it was wrong for OP to take the entire stock for himself and they pointed out that maybe the mom’s kids were neurodivergent too.
Redditors also thought OP might be exaggerating things to gain sympathy.
What Do You Think?
Should OP have given some of the red Gatorade to the mom, or did he do the right thing by keeping all of them to himself?
