What Would You Tell Your Younger Self?

Hi, everyone! This is Bunnie ~

So as a background story, I was listening to a song earlier about how the singer wishes that she could meet her younger version so that she could tell herself about the things she learned as she aged up, especially during times of difficulty. I was just wondering, if that's possible, what would you tell your younger self (plus what age would that younger version of yourself be) and why would you tell yourself that?

Hoping for your answers, lovelies <3

@passionatePlace4554 Hi, place thanks so much for sharing! <3

Ahh--having kids can be difficult, it requires utmost responsiblity, as well as going into a relationship, too! Would it be okay to ask why would this be a good reminder to your younger self?

I would tell my younger self - Things change. Stuff doesn't look and feel this bad for a long long time - even though it does feel that way. Life IS worth living, dear. Keep going! Things for other people in your future just would not be the same if you were not there! Keep fighting, dear one!

This is talking to myself at age about 12-13 and also for sure ages about 16-18. Probably some added things I'd say to my younger self when I was about 19-20 years.

@BunnieLuv, the "why would I say that" I will keep to myself for now. Good questions! I wonder what the name of the song or artist is as you refer to this song in the first post. There is a similar song (I think) that I know, but it is sung by a male vocalist. Oh oh! The Oscars shall be in .... less than 3 days! :) Okay so maybe that doesn't have anything to do with this, but I just thought of it. :) Platy

i think i would tell my younger self that coping shouldn't have to leave scars, emotionally or physically, at the age when i started sh, i don't remember when it was. but i would tell her that because i wouldn't want anyone to hurt themselves to feel better or find comfort. there are other better and healthier ways to cope, and to anyone reading who's struggling with sh, recovery is possible //
