What Do You Regret You Didn`t Do In Your Youth?

17 posts in this topic

I`m 18 and now I have a bit of FOMO about some things that I`m able to do now, but won`t have opportunity to do later.

So what things you regret you didn`t do in your youth?

Like learning new language because your mind is plastic, in example.

Nothing i did everything I wanted too thats why I awaken.

I regret letting people gaslight me out of being myself thats it.

I wish I loved and respected myself enough.

I regret not being more selfish. I was parentified by my parents, as the eldest daughter, I was like a tiny mom not only to my parents and siblings but also to the children in the neighborhood I grew up in.

My pain was invisible to the adults around me. I always appeared stronger than I felt inside, and I wasn’t aware of that until people told me.

I wasted so much time taking care of others while neglecting myself.

It's such an odd concept because you have no idea what would have happened otherwise, and the hardship you have experienced is integral to who you are now and there is gratitude for that, but one thing I surely could have benefited from in some facets at that moment in time (from like 12 years old) was fixing my diet and maybe dialing down the insane levels of masturbation lol. But that kind of high carb diet and frequent masturbation could've benefited my guitar playing (as it benefits from a more serotonergic/prolactin tone). If you actually regret something you did, it defines your life, and there is more to life than one thing.

I wish I did a lot of meditation. I remember doing long meditations and that shifted my consciousness in such a profound way. And then I stopped doing it and remember the enjoyment and bewilderment but never returning to it.

Sleep and eat better, invest more, care less about a career, journal, more yoga, more peacefulness and peaceful time.

I probably should have majored in music production/sound engineering in college, but this is such a non-standard career option I didn't even see it as an option at the time.

Should have majored in fine arts.

Should have spent more time single.


It is far easier to trick someone, than to convince them they have been tricked.

I turned 25 today and few of my Youth years are still remaining. I regret running away from suffering and chasing happiness.
