Discussion if you could travel back in time before you ctb, which time would it be and why? what would you do?

[xoirse]

i've been thinking about this a lot. probably because i wanna feel something again that isn't cutting my wrist lol or maybe the nostalgia is just too comforting. people with privileged childhood often wanna go back to being kids but i personally would prefer going back in time when i still have my pet alive haha. do you maybe wanna change the world before dying and change the trajectory of someone's life?

going back in time when i still have my pet alive

that's exactly what i would have said,it'd be hard to pick which one though as there are 2 that i miss so much. they were in my life at separate times.

Probably the 70s-90s so I could see all my favorite bands in their prime live and also being able to experience anime conventions before anime became super mainstream, or the 00s so I can see my one of my friends who passed away again.

I'd only want to go back in time to make it so I never existed in the first place. Only never existing is true perfection to me and I wouldn't wish to exist under any circumstances, existing is very undesirable and only not existing is the way to avoid suffering

early 2000s to prevent my parents from ever meeting each other

Why 2019?

Why 2019?

To safe myself from a lot of pain

Oh okay, wait could you elaborate on that intergalactic war theory you mentioned? I asked you in that thread but maybe you didn't see…

If I could go back in time, I would go right after I got out of high school and leave and abandon everyone around me instead of staying and hoping it'll get better with time. That was my biggest downfall which helped lead me to where I am now.

There's a testimony from a military nurse who allegedly interviewed a Roswell alien. It explains what's going on with Earth and it also ties to the prison planet theory.

 

[verrobasd]

Depends. Travel back in time to being young(er) again or coexisting like Back to the Future so I could change future events?

Hopefully the latter, because then I would do whatever it takes to take myself away from my parents after being born or prevent them from ever meeting.

Oh okay, thanks for lmk. I'll watch the video. Btw is this related to starseeds? I heard that there was an intergalactic war btwn the galactic federation and the anunnaki

1999. there's someone i would've liked to seen & known, even if just vaguely. but that's my attachment to a dead man i never met speaking. it's all conjecture.

that's a clever way to actually ctb yourself. if only it was that easy but it is what it is indeed

there is no hope in this world, sometimes you just really have to gaslight yourself it'll get better so that you can stop feeling shitty all the time but it just makes it worse. it's not always that everyone thinks and wants what's the best for you, although they think it is. i believe what they say all about it is just a reflection of what their standard for living is. so i wouldn't trust them. but i fell for that mistake too. i applaud you for still wishing it'll get better, it shows you actually care

i'd go back to like 2018. this may seem silly but it was when i moved schools.. i was in 8th grade, i think this was my 2nd or 3rd day of school there? when i got to art class, the group of popular girls invited me to sit with them. i declined and sat with the girls i met the day before, they were the "weird" kids. i often think about how different my life would have been if i sat with them instead. if i could go back in time, i'd sit with them. i imagine i'd have a completely different friend group, never would have met my toxic ex, and my mind would have developed differently.

I'm curious, why did you decline their invitation?

mainly because i had met the "weird" kids the couple days before. they introduced themselves to me and seemed nice enough, they were the only familiar faces in the classroom. that and i was extremely awkward/anxious.

"Hey, Franz Ferdinand, there's a guy who wants to assassinate you over there, so please take a different route."
"Thanks for the tip, man"

Idk, maybe I'd travel to some random time, where people are okay with accepting me. I know I don't really deserve it, but maybe it could avert my suicide entirely. Ancient Greece or Rome maybe? I can't speak Greek or Latin, but know enough university math to be able to kickstart much research more than 2 millenia early.

Ah okay

 

[Silent Raindrops]

I'd go back about 150 years and live in the old west, be a gunslinger and lose in a duel on purpose.

There's really no way to know I wouldn't make things worse if it's the fantasy sort of time travel where you go back with a mission etc. But if it's just my own life, and I was given a second chance, I'd take it. You know the kind where you get to cheat because you've already lived? That would be fun, but I'm sure still challenging. Imagine what you could do though if you had the mind of an adult who lived once already, knew what the future held, and you were going through childhood? That's the only exciting fantasy to entertain for me
