What is your biggest regret in life?

[LookingforAnswers]

Not getting help for drinking years ago

 

[Depressed Cat]

My biggest regret in life is being born.

 

[houseofleaves]

I don't regret anything. I followed my heart and always did what i wanted to do, not what others have told me to. I'm ready to die; and i will die happy.

 

[Circles]

Either wasting my early 20s doing nothing and/or Working at FedEx as a package handler where I hurt my back and knees to the point where I was bedridden for over 2 years.

 

[fullofregrets]

Trying to scrub my acne off resulting in permanent scars. Was not grateful for things I had and ruined everything apart (health, career) thinking I'll never have a good life with social anxiety.

Wasting my life in fear and squandered opportunity…

I tried it for 3 months and the side effects are horrible for me. The acne is not as severe now but the damage (severe scarring) has been done. Did you have acne as well?

[stellabelle]

Not being able to stop abuse from occurring.

Not being able to get the fuck out of it and stay out of it without the continued harassment, stalking, manipulation, lying, and shitty little "game" people like to "play" with one another.

And then "becoming" the problem.

Oh. Have you taken any treatment for it? Afaik, Accutane doesn't help with deep scars.

 

[indigomoon]

I think one of my biggest regrets is not having a voice for myself. What I mean by that is I never voiced how I really felt about things or what my opinion was. I was and still am afraid of disappointing people or offending them. I have never been good at articulating what I was thinking or how I have come to a conclusion on something. And now I've been doing it for so long that I just think it's too late to stop. I pretty much just agree with what's being said whether I really feel the same way or not. It's just easier that way. If I hadn't started doing this earlier in my life there would be things that wouldn't have happened because I agreed to them. And because of that I might have become a stronger and more independent person.

Same, wish I listened to the doctors to not use creams, dropped out of high school and lived with a paper bag over my head and then went for accutane my skin is damaged god I hate it
My regret is not dropping out of high school so I wouldn't damage my skin with acne scrubs and antibiotics that damaged my skin, antidepressants, and alcoholism that caused me to make poor decisions

 

[Deadly_Intention]

I regret not truly living!
I would not have gotten pregnant or gotten married (don't get me wrong, I love my son, but I was 18 when I fell pregnant and was far from ready to become a parent).
So many mistakes... I became a slave basically, which is funny cos when I was a child I was a slave for my parent now I'm a slave to my husband
I don't have a job, I can't seem to keep one for long with my mental health issues anyway. So I'm reliant on my husband and it really makes me hate myself for being so useless

 

[I need peace]

I became a sex worker while having SA trauma, because I'm extremely poor. It broke me in many ways, I didn't feel human l.
I've fucked up a lot on my life but that was something I'd 100% take back, maybe I wouldn't be so depressed now hadn't I done that

 

[Chico56]

Working at the company which ruined my life.

 

[symphony]

That I'll never be able to achieve my potential, get my PhD, do something great, use what I've learned to help others.

 

[TheWood]

I've more than one regret but certainly the main one is that of not having cut ties years ago with my toxic and dysfunctional family situation

 

[ThePaleWhiteLight]

Living.

I have a decent understanding of scar revision options. If you ever want advice my inbox is open. That goes for anyone with scarring or skin issues. I know DIY and cheaper options too.

I regret taking my time for granted.

 

[miserable_existance]

For me it's not buying a lot of Bitcoin 7 years ago.
I am not joking.
The reason I want to ctb is being poor and having to work which is a nightmare for me.
If I had bought say a 1000 bitcoins in 2014 I would have millions right now and would never need to work in anything.
I would be relaxed and happy right now without any worry or stress or anxiety and I would be able to actually enjoy life and not want to ctb.

staying alive

 

[hellispink]

Not reporting the big amount of people who abused me in different ways throughout my existence

 

[WorthlessTrash]

Breaking up with my GF in 2015 and still being alive today.

 

[outatime_85]

Aside from being born, living in fear, and the numerous opportunities I missed as a result of my fear, I would have to say worrying about what people's thoughts about me were.

loving someone, believing i was loved, fucking it up, being insane about it, fucking up my future

 

[dogofman]

i wish i never fell in love

Losing my wife and daughter. They are my entire life
Losing my wife and daughter my only reason to live
Losing my wife and daughter my only reason to live
