Time to see what life lessons you learned the hard way, maybe share your experience with us, so we don't make that mistake. It's always helpful to know your life lessons, just keep them relevant and appropriate.

#1

Never change for anyone unless you yourself want it. You spend the most time with yourself, so be who you want to be and listen to your gut.

Oh, now THIS is deep. I (and probably many others) will use this oh so much!

Stay in touch with people, and try to be honest when you cant/are struggling to. As someone who has suffered a lot of mental and physical health issues, including chronic depression, it can be the worst when you self-isolate out of sheer misery and pain, and your family/friends take that as a sign that you dont love or care about them and proceed to treat you coldly. Still, years later, attempting to mend bridges.... which doesnt help when my phone calls (that take 7 spoons to attempt) are answered with “hey stranger!” or “Wow I thought you’d died!”.

Woah, this is so deep! This makes total sense, and more people need to know this, especially with how important it is.
