Does anyone wonder what you would do if you would meet the 10 year old you?

[CoolGuy9]

For me it would be quite depressing. I know I would ask what has happened to me and telling him(me) that you will become a worthless piece of shit is not what I want to answer, but I don't wanna lie either. I could also maybe safe myself. Tell him to stick to old friends and don't do stupid shit, because someone said so. Maybe id be normal then.

 

[Can'tStandAnymore]

You are an aspie, don't ruin your life while trying to socialize with people. Don't ever lose your self confidence. Go and learn some programming. Pass the first episode of black mirror.

 

[_milo]

I don't think I would want to do/say anything. It would be interesting to see my choices from a 3rd person viewpoint though.

 

[Pentobartbital]

I would tell him, very sternly, to run away from mum and go live with dad. That it is never worth it to expect love from someone who is neglectful, stupid and vengeful.

 

[Wolfjob_dayjob]

I would teach 10 year old me to be more tough, savage, rip out the eyes of anyone who attacks or tried to rape her and if she can't it she's scared that's ok, I would burn down houses and ruin callous adults and kids alike, us against the world. I'd sign her up for karate like she always wanted and never let her down by denying her basic medical care, shoes, a warm coat and never breed more mouths to feed and dump them on her to parent. Get her some counseling. It sounds like lots of kids didn't get the life they wanted to varying degrees.

 

[F_ckthisplace]

Shoot him

 

[Onomotopoeia]

I have no memory at all before like 16, so I would be truly curious what I was like.

Forget trying to give him advice to change things I would just want to know who I was then, what was I like? Did something happen back then? or was it later? or maybe nothing ever really happened at all. Was I always a cynic? oh so many questions but they would all be to appease the adult me. Trying to change the past seems like dangerous business things could be much worse however nobody could tell me better than me what life was like then and adult me wants nothing more than the pieces of my past that are forever lost to me.

 

[Kikoo Loool]

I would tell: don't have any dreams and don't waste your time in studying.

 

[Meretlein]

I would tell them to never trust their parents.

 

[Roberto]

I would hug him and say I love him. But having in count what the future holds, I would suggest him to ctb as soon as possible ... sorry I can't tell that to him.
Study, don't leave university like I did. follow your dreams, focus your dreams in your mind.
Success is mix of being in the right place and the right time, don't feel bad if you don't achieve it. If you worked hard for it, you have chances.
... I think I need to think about what to say ...
Don't sleep with your father. He will abuse you.

 

[marcusuk63]

Shoot him

I was thinking of throwing him/me under a bus , it would save me having to catch it later on in life

 

[JJ-NOHOPE]

Shoot him

Me too.

I would shoot her, before she got raped, betrayed, abused, neglected and abandoned. Before she had to live her life 100% alone forever. A life of unceasing pain and torment.

It's the only merciful thing to do.

 

[nanimonoka]

I would tell: don't have any dreams and don't waste your time in studying.

That's funny, because I grew up in a seventh day adventist (a terrible pseudo-christian cult) household and the air was that God's reclamation of humans was going to take place so soon that I concluded it wasn't worth really trying for anything in life. And that was one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made.

I also would have told myself, "skill over telent," and I probably would have hauled an immense smack on myself.

Then, I would have punched myself in the stomach, pulled my hair, spit on myself, and maybe gouged my eyes out. (re: Eminem - Just Lose It)

 

[CoolGuy9]

Shoot him

Wait, is that murder or suicide?

How do you not have any memories of when you were under 16?

 

[CornerE]

Shoot him

That's fuckin genius .

But of course if I have a gun I wouldn't be alive so far .
I would think of a way that will definitely kill the young me .
Something I couldn't do to myself and always needed someone's help for .

 

[CoolGuy9]

This little thought experiment is odd. It's odd, because when I see this 10 year old as another person, I would be kind to him, because I know what he will go through and I can relate extremely well and I really wanna save him even if it didn't save me, but I treat myself like complete garbage. Infact when I see people in similar situations, I feel bad for them and I hope they get better and don't commit suicide, but when i'm in this situation, I just despise myself and plan to ctb all the time.

 

[Onomotopoeia]

How do you not have any memories of when you were under 16?

I'm not entirely sure. It is likely related to a condition called SDAM that i have it messes with my ability to form memories. I remember some facts but do not retain many memories. I typically lose everything after about 5 years but some things stick, however i have nothing before 16 and even 16-25 is almost entirely gone

 

[CornerE]

There's not much really that I can change , cause most of misery wasn't my fault therefore I cant control it .

But here's some head lines that wouldn't make much difference but still I would like to undo .

• Don't ever try to join that college , forget about that field all together .
• Choose the easiest college that doesn't need much studying , you're not working either way .
• Never trust amyone specially your family or anyone in their side .
• Never take any medicines , specially psychiatric ones , you (young me ) were right about psychiatrics being frauds .. don't trust them thinking they would take responsibility for whatever decisions they push you to . they never wanna really help either .

Damn, what an odd life you must live. In a way I can see it as a blessing, because I would sometimes wanna forget who I am, because I despise myself. Still, I would imagine it being more of a curse than a blessing.

 

[StillWaiting]

Stop trying to seek approval and do something you like instead. Dont think too much about life.

 

[TAW122]

I would tell my 10 year old self to be more alpha, pursue my hobby more aggressively and relentlessly, and just pursue my dreams and not go to college, don't take the traditional path. Also, maybe socializing more oftenly and maybe I just might not end up lonely (doubtful but a lot of variables).

 

[Cookiedough8956]

Tell the 10 yr old me

Don't even think about living; you'll result in nothing.

Or....just stab her to death. (2nd one is more preferable)

 

[Onomotopoeia]

Certainly a curse. Stories of my own life are like listening to fiction. Photo albums full of people I dont remember. Probably worse than all of that is when old friend's come around I often don't remember why they where "old" friends..

 

[Zamolxes]

I would tell him to end it as it was his fantasy ever since he was like 8 and got locked out to study......... It's a pitty he didn't do it then

 

[ithappens]

I'd tell 10 y/o me to get it right the first time when they attempt to ctb, that nothing gets better from that point on. It wasn't too long after 10 y/o that I had my first attempt anyways, and I was starting to think about it at that age.

 

[Fallen bad23]

I would choke her to death by my bare hands

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

Keep your confidence up. Push through things even if they feel difficult/super uncomfortable. Don't get hung up on dumbass girls who don't care about you in the end.

 

[justabouttobedone]

Push yourself to study more, don't let your fears to stop you, do not escape from reality and do not release yourself to the sweet arms of video games' artificial world, and most importantly do not make lazy and reckless friends because you feel comfortable around them. But probably he would not even listen to me, so I would just strangle that little shit right there.

 

[silentsinger]

Never let other people make you feel worthless would be a good start.

 

[VikingWinger]

I would say I am God and that I would kill me if I didn't buy all there is of bitcoin


Plot twist edit: I am my own God and will kill me anyway
