    Though knowing myself and my past. There isn’t anything i could say that would have any effect. Younger me wouldn’t believe, listen or trust anything i would say.

    It’a never as urgent and stressfull as your brain tells you. Relax! And do some stupid shit instead of learning all the time.

    Probably that all the things I felt were in fact not normal and there’s no shame in trying therapy or asking for accommodations.

    Definitely would have been good for my academic career.

    Not that things turned out bad for me, I followed my heart and it led to a good place. But I lost a few years and relationships to anxiety and depression that I could have fully lived.

    The circumstances of one’s birth are irrelevant; it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are.

    I’d tell myself to prioritize my hobbies over partying. Be serious about the music and join a band. Move to a bigger city.
