I think I cannot remember all of them.
I always was in favor of assisted suicide when I first read about it at the age of roundabout 13. So I was consistent on that.
I was when I was a teenager a conservative and now I am a lefty. I could explain a lot of policies which I have flip-flopped on but I don't want that this thread gets too political.
I did not take mental illness seriously. My mom always claimed my dad was just lazy and not depressed. I never could really grasp what it feels like not being able to stand out of bed. But when I experienced it it was shocking and bonecrushing. I underestimated mental problems a lot. But I was a teenager and kind of naive.
As a teenager I thought it was right to gaze into the abyss like Nietzsche put it. And by doing that I mean watching real life gore in order to see the true nature of humanity. I have changed my opinion a lot and I think except for some exceptipns one should rather avoid watching such stuff. So that the poor souls can rest in peace and it is often better for one's own health.
I thought it was easy to commit suicide. My mom told me one could simply take random medication and then one could die peacefully. Fictional series also depicted it similarly. I was so wrong about that.
I thought it was dumb to take mental health medication. Yeah I also changed my opinion on that. Since I take them my life quality improved a lot.
I thought one day there was an happy end for me. I thought this as a teenager. That someday my life will improve and all this abuse will have an end. Quiet the oppsoite happpened. So many new problems have emerged and I have been through hell since. Moreover I lost more and more the hope to find a gf.
Not sure which stance I had on gettng children. I think my dad always wanted me to procreate. And somehow I thought one should procreate for the sake of our country. (demographics) But I always was ambivalent on that. Now I am very very convinced that I never want to have children. Not even adopt one.
I thought it was great to live in Japan or the US. I was sad I was not born there. Yeah now I am know it sucks to live there even more than in my country.
I thought TV was entertaining, better than the internet, watched trash TV and I was fan of some asshole celebrities.
I was naive about soccer stars and confused being a good player with being a good person.
I read yellow press daily. My parents raised me that way. And I adopted some trash stances from that habit.
I had an unhealthy relation to my abuse. I thought it woud make me stronger the complete opposite is true. I am very vulnerable and fragile instead because of it.
I had some stupid and childish thoughts about suicide. I regret some things I told myself. I tortured me even more despite the fact I was already in a lot of pain.
I was somewhat religious due to the way I was raised. Now I am either agnostic or atheistic. I stopped believing in hell which comforted me.
I did not know how comforting suicide forums can be. I was kind of shy at the start. I think I am prone to interactions on the internet because in real life there is often no time for exchanigng deep thoughts. On the internet you get access to so many interesting niches. I love that on Youtube.
I believed that life was fair and that a true meritocracy would exist.
Now what are some stances you flip-flopped on?
