Selling/Donating My Speedos

I have been feeling very down lately - many reasons. In all honesty, I was hospitalized for being borderline suicidal. I still wish I was dead.

But as I was going through my swimwear, I realized I have too many swim briefs. I was just being stupid and made some purchases on impulse - stupid me. Moreover, because of my food allergies and food sensitivities, I'm not fat at all, but my abdominal area gets swollen so I don't look good to be in a swim brief.

What would be the best way to go about selling my swim briefs or donating them?

I will look at keeping maybe 5-7 only.

First off, I’m very sorry that you’re dealing with this situation man. It must be rough for what you’re going through. I genuinely hope you get better mentally and physically.

I’d be interested in your swim briefs! Depending on what size they are! You can definitely message me via notes or some other place. c:

I don't know about donating but any ones I want to sell I just stick them on ebay.

I had luck with Poshmark. If you're not posing in them though (which I did not, but I'll get to that later), they will be harder to sell. Be prepared to get asked for pics of you.

Sorry to hear you're in a rough place right now; it's only temporary. I'm going through a divorce now (yay, no more dealing with my wife's homophobia! Hence not being allowed to post pics either here or on Poshmark), and it just did not work out. I was suicidal too. But the woman I just started dating is very enthusiastic about me expressing myself in every way. She's getting a very personal fashion show this weekend!

So sorry to hear this Speedoboi. Hope everything starts to work out for you and that you can leave the dark thoughts behind you.
I also suffered from a burnout/depression this summer, but with some medical support, a bunch of good talks and very importantly enough time to rest and take care of myself, I feel already better again. Hope this can work out for you as well.

Sorry to read you are both going through some hard times right now. Hope both of you take care of yourselves and reach out for help when needed; especially speedoboi. Have enjoyed reading your posts over the years and look forward to many more to come in the future. FYI I have had good luck selling my older or not needed suits on eBay and have done so with only a photo of the suit and not any of me wearing the suit.
Good luck to both of you for a full recovery.

Definitely EBay. I sold loads of previously bought on an impulse but never worn styles on there.
