    I would tell myself to not push emotions away, since they would inevitably return as anxiety.

    Stop looking for love and learn to love yourself. You are at your best when you are alone and not torn between introversion and tending to a relationship. It’s one or the other and you always default to the former. Always has been.

    The world is waaay dummer and less fair than you think so don’t stress about things too much cause it’s rigged anyway.

    Having said that, persistence does eventually get you there

    When you were thinking about buying $100 of Bitcoin when they were $0.20 a piece, fucking do it, then sit on it for a decade.

    I seriously thought about it, and talked myself out of it because it sounded like a good way to lose $100 and it would probably only lose value anyway.

    It would be worth $50 million today.

    The best time to get into crypto was at the very beginning, it’s not even worth gambling with now.

      That’s what they said 5 years ago and bitcoin has doubled in value since then.

      That’s assuming you’d actually be able to cash out.

    You’re bipolar, you just hide it well.

    Get your meds sorted before college or you’re gonna wind up dropping out.

    Also, its a seizure disorder, it just doesn’t present typically; and its medication resistant. Keep trying. That alone is gonna set you back about 10 years.

    For all the bitcoin comments, just know that its never too late.

    I didn’t buy when it was pennies. I saw it jump from $5 to $20. Then, a few years later, I bought lots and lots when it was in the $100s.

    I held for a decade and finally sold this year. I now have enough to retire.

    Future you will say “why didn’t I buy when it was $100,000”?

      The thing is, in a year’s time bitcoin could be worth $200k or it could be worth $0.

      Trump loved crypto because he grifted with some NFTs and then he needed support to win an election. That’s done now so we’re 1 brain fart away from a royal decree that crypto is bad.

      People don’t sell up all their shares because they have enough to retire on.

        I’m a year’s time, 1 USD could be worth double what its worth now, or it could be worth 0.

        Most likeluy, however, in 10 years, bitcoin will be worth more than $200k and USD will be worth much less than it is today.

          That’s a false equivalence. Yes the USD could be worth $0 but the chances of that are infinitesimal in comparison to the chance that crypto will be worthless.

          You have no evidence on which to base an assertion of bitcoin’s most likely future value. Past performance is not an indication of future performance.

          The only surety is that crypto will consume egregious amounts of energy in the course of producing absolutely no value.
