    Don’t go live with your dad.

    Don’t get on the motorcycle he buys you.

    Find this specific woman your age in the USA, she’s your soulmate.

    I turn 18 in around a month… I guess I’d tell him to take care of himself and keep working on being less anxious, though I doubt he’d actually do it.

      Take care of your teeth and learn as much as you can. Your teeth don’t heal and are never considered in health care, and there really isn’t such thing as irrelevant knowledge.

        I have braces right now and it’s very uncomfortable to have anything stuck in there, so I do take extra care of my oral health at the moment. Fortunately I’ll have free dental care for the foreseeable future, given that I’m going into uni and then healthcare (this is how it works where I live).

        Agreed on lifelong learning, I want to (somewhat) be able to keep up with the world changing as I get older.

    I know what you’re going through. Trust me it’ll get worse. But afterwards it’s good you didn’t do it. It gets sooooo much better just a year or so after. You’ll be happy just sit tight for a bitband do what you think is right.

    You aren’t lazy, you aren’t undisciplined, you just have ADHD. get that shit diagnosed and treated or you’ll lose your full ride scholarship.

    A desk job is fine, and you’re good at programming. Don’t be afraid to major in something computer related.

    BTC is a scam but buy a lot of it as early as possible, it’ll peak around 65k. God doesn’t exist, the republicans are fucking ghouls

    “No one will care about the GED. You did the right thing dropping out of that bullshit. You’ll get into college next year.”

    Incidentally, nothing on that GED was anything I hadn’t learned by middle school. I got an ‘honors’ GED because it was so fucking easy. I’m not trying to brag. I don’t think I’m some kind of genius. It was just really easy. And then I spent the next decade, even though I did get into college, thinking people would think I was a fraud because I took the easy way out.

    It all changed when I got invited to my 10 year high school reunion and realized even they didn’t care.

      I would still be a housekeeper if I hadn’t taken the GED. It was easy because it takes real ife experience in to account.

    Go to the doctor and ask for medication. It’s not normal to cry for a month in deep depression and then not sleep for a month due to manic excitement. Keeping it a secret and sitting the dark wanting to cut yourself while your friends and family are unaware is stupid and selfish.
