Three things.
- Brush your damn teeth.
- Spend time with your elderly family members while you still can.
- Compound interest.
Last year, when my daughter moved to college, I wrote her a letter containing my best advice.
Brush your damn teeth was at the top.
And I extend this advice to ANYONE ELSE who needs it.
A fucked tooth is one of the most painful things I’ve ever experienced, and the way you fix it, is to pull it. And it NEVER comes back. Repeat this a few times and you’re embarrassed to smile in front of anyone. It really messes with your self worth, and there’s no coming back.
Please, brush your damn teeth, and don’t start smoking.
Please everyone,
My kids think I’m annoying for nagging them about their teeth, but I’m on a mouth fixing journey due to medical tooth loss and it is slow, painful, expensive, and embarrassing. People think I either do drugs or never learned to brush my teeth and I’d hate to see my kids go through that. It’s a secondary reason to my continued masking in public and masking is absolutely the only reason I was able to find the job I have. Not that I am unqualified, but if I had smiled in an interview I never would have been called back.
If a girl invites you back for coffee, don’t decline because you don’t like coffee. She is probably the one who would send you your first Valentine’s card a few months.
Delay your mother for just a minute on this specific day in 1997, you will save her life.
Go and see Sasha on this day in 2019. She’s going to die and there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
You aren’t lazy, you aren’t undisciplined, you just have ADHD. get that shit diagnosed and treated or you’ll lose your full ride scholarship.
A desk job is fine, and you’re good at programming. Don’t be afraid to major in something computer related.
BTC is a scam but buy a lot of it as early as possible, it’ll peak around 65k. God doesn’t exist, the republicans are fucking ghouls

Most of your problems are due to undiagnosed ADHD.
In November 2020, you will invest all your money into Gamestop. Sell once the price hits $200.
- Don’t date her.
- Don’t ever start drinking.
- Turns out you’re gay and you don’t know it yet.
Buy bitcoin.
- If someone is willing to cheat with you, they’ll cheat on you too
- Stay away from cocaine
- compound interest
- Delayed gratification is usually worth it
You don’t have super powers, you’re not having a “spiritual crisis,” you have ADHD and you’re losing your shit. See a doctor. Medicine is good.
That’s it. That would basically rewrite the last 18 years of my life (not that it’s been bad, but I lost out on doing cool stuff in my 20s to figuring out I had, and how to deal with, my mental illness)
Two things: you have ADHD, learn how to deal with it now or things will get worse.
The other thing would be a hint on where to find my current SO.
Nothing I could change would affect her path in life up until I meet her. Our lives are very separate.
Dump your highschool sweetheart, she’s a cheating bitch when she goes off to college. Instead, date the girl you liked for 3 years but she didn’t come around until you started dating the one who broke your heart. Though she was late to the game, and broke your heart 3 years straight… when she came to you with that 12 page letter, she was legit. She found and married the guy who was just like you and they lived happily… until covid killed her early on in the covid saga. But if she’d married me, she wouldn’t have been in Georgia. She’d still probably have been a nurse, but not there. She might still be alive. Oh, and that rebound gal you dated, knocked up and married after the first gal, the cheater, broke your heart? She widows you. And shit just gets worse from there.
DONT START SMOKING.
This is the way!
Strive for independence with every fiber of your being. Your family that you live with doesn’t love you.
That’s why they’re dicks to you. They lie and tell you it’s “for your own good” or some other bullshit. But really they’re afraid to admit that they don’t know how to love you… They may not know how to love anyone.
Being grounded for 2/3 of the year every year - when you have no disciplinary or legal troubles - is imprisonment, it is not just punishment. Making you eat vomit is not an important life lesson, it is abuse. A person who openly favors one child over the other doesn’t love any of her children, least of all you.
Your brothers learned to love from someone incapable of loving. That’s why they are indifferent to your suffering. That’s why they only care what you can do for them and feel no obligation to do anything that benefits you.
You can’t snap your fingers and be independent. But it is within your grasp if you reach for it. Reach for it with your entire being.
Your dad is reaching out now because you’re 18 and he doesn’t have to deal with a psycho to get ahold of you anymore. Hold him accountable, but trust his intentions. He’s rusty at relating, but let him show you how much he loves you. And use that to remind you of how much the others don’t.
