Discussion What's your biggest mistake?

[Labyrinth]

Abandoning myself was the worst mistake I could have made, because I let the world and things define who I am. In the two and a half decades that I lived, I was never truly me. I didn't find my way, I didn't do anything I would love to do, I didn't take advantage of the chances. All my little time was wasted.

As a young man I should have had a sense of direction and knew that I was alone in existence. I should have learned that my "self" is a construction and does not come ready from the beginning. Becoming who you want is the purpose to be fulfilled..

My death has no meaning, everything was for nothing. I feel completely useless. Daily suffering is like Sisyphus' stone.

Being born was my biggest mistake. Well, technically my parent's biggest mistake. I should have been killed as a baby

Existing in the first place but of course it wasn't my mistake to make, I never chose any of this after all. The existence of life was the most terrible, horrific tragedy that caused nothing but suffering and harm, more than anything I wish I never existed, only never existing is true perfection, there's no benefit to the futile and torturous burden of existing as a human. It disturbs me how humans procreate even know nobody can suffer from never existing at all with there never being a need for existence.

Letting it go on this long.

SW industry voluntarily

 

[Optimu$]

Not realising or being able to realise what physical problem I had, how it could be worsened and what I needed to do to avoid it.

Not understanding my mental health problems and personality and the problems it could cause me if I couldn't see them.

Being too "honest" with my therapist

Being too "honest" with my therapist

There aren't that many good therapists in the world.

My biggest mistake was getting in the stock market.

 

[Praestat_Mori]

Believing that I can rescue my sinking ship years ago and not killing myself when I was very suicidal. Now things aren't better, I'm hardly suicidal and stuck here. Recovery mission impossible. Too much hope.

Trusting doctors and not killing myself sooner
