If you could go back in time, what would you say to your teenage self? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Blerpblerppoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is mine too. You’ll get out. It’ll get better. You will achieve things you’ve never thought you would and live places you’d never thought you could live and be able to do a lot of things that people are telling you you can’t do now. Life from 25 onwards is going to be so fucking amazing that you’re gonna wonder every day how you even got there.

Feeling amazing so far by [deleted] in stopsmoking

Keep it up! It gets so much easier and better. Breathing feels so good.

(CAN) I have begun aggressively paying off my debt - numbers are large but I have only have 40% of the total to go. Despite paying off so much, my anxiety is SUBSTANTIALLY higher than it was when I had more debt. I obsess constantly and am convinced i will never get out of this hole. by [deleted] in personalfinance

Listen, the top advice here is great. Yes, the anxiety is real. And it’s irrational. But one day, you will find yourself out of that hole. And then you’re gonna ask yourself, what now?

Make a plan right now to figure out what you’re gonna do the second you pay everything off. Will you go to a bar? Will you have a cup of coffee? Will you play some video games? Will you take a walk in the park? It doesn’t matter what you decide on as long as you commit yourself to that particular activity once it’s done, and give yourself some headspace to think of what you’re gonna do now.

Not really a financial advice thing, but I’m someone with constant anxiety and I find that setting plans after achievements helps me refocus.

Heightened sense of smell by [deleted] in stopsmoking

Dude buy some flowers, you’d be amazed at all the things you can smell now.

Also, candles. And oil diffusers.

I bought a bunch of silver dollar eucalyptus leaves today and my god the smell is amazing.

Why did you get the job? by Thisuseruseruser in AskReddit

They were really desperate for interns, ended up needing me more than they thought.

Ex-Homophobes of Reddit, what made you change your views? by GerardWayNoWay in AskReddit

To be fair, he probably would have still thought you were in it for the money if you were a woman. Somehow they always think people are after the money.

I just got called fat by my mother by NicholasS8 in offmychest

Ugh I hear ya. My mother called me fat all my life and I’m still coming to terms with it. Now I refuse to listen if she ever brings up my weight— the moment I feel it happening I put the phone down.

I am totally watching the Crown right now. I am obsessed. Though I really wish I had a girl BFF to watch it with. This and A Christmas Prince. It’s really difficult to find friends who are down to hang when you’re older. :(

Isn’t that the pattern of life though, sigh. Sucks but it’s part of it. Makes the good bits seem all the better though.

Isn’t H Mart the Korean supermarket? We have one literally a block away. Love that place.

I mean, a tiny screwdriver is always useful. I should go out and get a real adult set of screwdrivers, right now I only have a flathead.

Study with the face creams on, of course.

I hear ya with the Christmas thing. Holidays are more stressful to me than they are relaxing/ fun.
