your biggest regrets in life?


Recommended Posts

Hurting people I like and not saying sorry because I was too "proud". I lost many friends just because "only weak people apologize". :juanny:

Not knowing when to say no to recreational drugs (or using prescribed drugs for a recreational purpose, rather than its prescribed purpose), and I say this as someone who's been sober for about a week. Now, I'm not talking about IV'ing drugs or doing anything like cocaine/heroin/meth, but I'm talking about taking edibles just because I was "bored" or it would make domestic chores/living more interesting. I'm lucky that drugs never interfered with work, relationships, or family, but they did take a toll on my mental health. When you have to take drugs to "escape" something-- whether that's boredom, insecurities, or life problems-- not only does it get expensive, it also affects your ability to process and regulate your emotions naturally, and it becomes a crutch. Instead of making time for yourself or loved ones, you say, "I rather just get high than do X." Also, if you have an anxiety disorder like I do, be careful with substances, such as marijuana, that can exacerbate anxiety symptoms. I'm not saying marijuana will 100% make your anxiety worse-- for some, it helps anxiety-- but just keep in mind virtually all drugs (recreational or not) have side effects. It's up to you (although, if you ask me, it should be up to your provider) whether the benefits of that drug outweigh the risks.

Moving out of the city into a small village as a teenager leaving all my friends and hobbies behind. But it worked kinda out in the end I guess

I wish I stayed in LA when the pandemic started. I ended up moving out because of COVID but I wish I found an apartment and lived there for the rest of college. I miss that city so much.

Losing my virginity to this guy that was grotesque all because I got mad at my dad for moving out and moving back in with me and my grandma causing me a lot of stress. He was my age but later I found out he had a thing for kids. I wished I shared that experience with someone I loved. Also for not going into Tech when I got into college years ago taking History instead and flunking out. It was a waste of an opportunity. Thankfully I’m taking a tech certification course now. I feel as though I’m on the right track now, so my  regrets hurt less.

Hmm, probably neglecting my language learning - if I'd have studied hard I'd be fluent in Japanese and Mandarin by now. The career opportunities. I also regret COVID-19 existing and ruining the world the last few years but alas, not really "my" regret.
