Hey Pandas, What Advice Do You Wish You Followed Earlier In Your Life? (Closed)

Is there something you regret not hearing at the time it was said to you?

Don’t ever start smoking/ doing drugs/smoking weed. You’ll regret it later in life, especially when your old body fails you, particularly your lungs from smoking. Heed my advice while I hack up a lung…

Don't get those college credit cards. It will start your debts before you have a way to pay them...

Spend time thinking about what you want to do for the rest of your life.

I had depression and didn’t expect to live this long so I never thought about the future. Now I’ve switched majors twice and still hate what I’m going to have to do forever.

F*cking TAKE CARE OF YOUR TEETH. I'm out $500 so far and not even halfway through repairing what my younger self chose to neglect. Thankfully in my country, dental work is not insanely expensive... but it's still a lot of money.

Hi all, Kate here. Thanks for your responses and I sincerely hope that everyone struggling will find qualified solutions to their problems and in the meantime be gentle with yourself. You are worth the care. I found a quote from Gary Lew and I so wish someone shared this with me in my youth. “Go after what YOU want in life; otherwise you get what is left over.” Recently I shared my own thoughts with some college kids: as you go through life, however much control you have in your world, make smart choices so that you are never in a position where you have to say I don’t have a choice. Be well and find peace in every day.
