Discussion If you had the chance what is one thing you would tell your younger self?

[UninformedLover]

For me it would be - "It doesn't get better so just go ahead and kill yourself now" or "save money, actually focus on school and get good grades so that when you are 18 you can move out and go to a great college."

Edit: Also "Get into Marvel movies now so you can be able to watch the mcu grow into something amazing :)

 

[unnormal9]

I have this to tell you.

Remember it it once and awhile...

Twelve years ago your past self...

Prayed for your happiness.

Please don't...

Lose hope...

 

[cgrtt.brns]

fucking leave him alone, he doesnt like you. also give your dad a break hes not mentally well, just dont piss him off and he wont hit you.

 

[FuneralCry]

That I should just leave as soon as possible to prevent all future suffering, but of course I still wanted to die when I was much younger so I doubt that words would had changed anything. The problem for me is that suicide is so difficult and inaccessible in this cruel world, I would had left awhile ago if it was much more straightforward.

 

[numbnesshuman]

I would tell myself OD is stupid…

 

[Dot]

Eithr 'tll sme1' or 'whn h/ blocks u in th/ ally-wy scream v loud'

 

[i need go]

go now or you won't have the courage later, this life is nothing more than the suffering you're going through now, it's incessant, or you smoke and get drunk, or you live in constant suffering

 

[Float On Okay]

Tell someone/seek help.

 

[Homo erectus]

Isn't this the grandfather paradox? There is one thing that can never happen. Only the other direction is possible. But if I could inform my younger self, other people probably also could. It's just an arms race on a different scale. The nature of life and outcome wouldn't change much.

 

[Forever Sleep]

I'd tell myself next weeks winning lottery numbers.

 

[Message In A Bottle]

"Quit worrying about what others think, and stop starving yourself you idiot.

Being a door mat and pretending to be someone your not is NOT cute."

Then I'd give myself a bitch slap.

 

[Dead Ghost]

When I was young, I didn't pay attention to anyone... as if to address that stupid guy (that's precisely why I am the way I am now).

Jo quan era jove no feia cas de ningú.. com per dirigir-me a aquell estúpid (precisament per això estic com estic ara).

 

[loopdaloop]

"Save up money, and never return home after going away the first time"

 

[g56f32Z4n8#uExEuU*@]

Try everything. Feel everything, deeply. There's nothing to lose or worth preserving for the future.

 

[Hollowman]

Don't do drugs.

 

[strawb12]

I'd either direct them here so I would have information on viable methods when I was younger, & that even if it gets better it gets worse too. Life's not worth it.

 

[The anhedonic one]

None of this life shitfuckery is worth living, so save yourself a shitload of suffering and end it asap.

 

[madhatguy]

I'd tell him I'm sorry and hug him

 

[nerve]

"Take school seriously."

 

[lokabe82]

I would definitely tell myself that it does not get better. I will fail everything I try, I will crush every dream that I have ever had by my own hand. The stars are gone and they are not coming back for you.

 

[acerace]

To stop pretending but also to never let anyone know.

 

[12_Years_Late]

"Cut open every inflatable slide in sight with a knife."

 

[sunsh1n3]

"You can forgive them from afar."

 

[loyalskateboard]

"Make an appointment with insert current psychologist's name to get proper treatment and a correct diagnosis."

 

[seaspray]

Its not your fault..you are perfect as you are..

 

[StolenLife]

"Don't even try at school, it doesn't matter, your mind will collapse in on itself and you'll develop paranoid psychosis. And you will never ever feel safe again."
