Good question! I would go back to when I was about 10 or 11 and tell myself that no matter what happens, not to cry and to be strong. I'd also want to go back to when I was about 16 and tell myself not to date that guy, hes REAL bad news.

Wow- how great it would be if you could give your love and support to that little child you were. I often wished I could do the same thing. Just to let that child know they had a friend in the world and everything was going to be OK.
Oh, and I understand about the boyfriend too...how I wish I could have warned myself about my ex-husband!

To stay a way from boys and stay in school. If I had stayed away from boys, my life would have been on a much different track.

Great advice!! If only we all knew that, right? I wish I had gone on doing just what I liked doing without worrying so much about being in love or being attractive to others. But there are these crazy hormones running around our bodies telling us otherwise, aren't there? ;)

Don't waste your time helping people that don't want help. But you know...I don't think I would listen to me anyways. I am who I am and I really have stayed true to my beliefs as best that I could. After all, you know why hindsight is 20-20? So you don't miss when you kick yourself in the behind for doing something so stupid! Aloha!

Ohhhh that's a big one. I wish I had known that as well- help people who ASK for help!
Great that you have such a good attitude about who you are now.

i wish i would've known that my bipolar disorder needed to be treated, and to take it more seriously.
i was diagnosed at 14 and didn't begin treatment until 26. that's a long haul, baby.

Wow, that's a tough one. My daughter has bipolar disorder (since she was 11) and doesn't think she needs treatment. She's pretty hard to live with because of it. I worry about how she's going to make it in the real world.
