    Stop looking for love and learn to love yourself. You are at your best when you are alone and not torn between introversion and tending to a relationship. It’s one or the other and you always default to the former. Always has been.

    I would tell myself to not push emotions away, since they would inevitably return as anxiety.

    The world is waaay dummer and less fair than you think so don’t stress about things too much cause it’s rigged anyway.

    Having said that, persistence does eventually get you there

    Girls want to date / fuck just as much as you do… So be cool, just chill… Work on your self, be the best version of you that you can be… Work on your communication, be upfront honest and forthcoming.

    You’ll be fine.

    You’re bipolar, you just hide it well.

    Get your meds sorted before college or you’re gonna wind up dropping out.

    Also, its a seizure disorder, it just doesn’t present typically; and its medication resistant. Keep trying. That alone is gonna set you back about 10 years.

    Ignore the financial “advice” of your parents, they’re retiring and still in debt. Real estate, and stock market. Those prices only go up over time, and although it may be difficult in the short term, long term you’ll thank yourself.

    Also college is a waste, don’t do it.

    Quit university and learn a proper job.

    (in the end I did, but it took way too long for me to make that decision)
