Watch out for debt accumulation. I lied to myself at that age when I got my first credit card by buying crap after justifying that I only live once. Never again. I suggest spending your money on experiences rather than possessions.

Oh and happy early birthday.

Get to know people, get to know yourself. Once you find out behaviours of yourself that don’t suit you get rid of them. Build discernament listening to others you can lear from do and don’t do as well. Cherrish everybody that is close to you.

Save money. Do not overspend. Learn about investments. Keep track of your budget. Stay on top.

Do not do drugs.

Do not overdrink. Two beers are enough.

Make lasting memories with friends but more important with a partener.

Do not over work. Find your joy and relax time.

Love.

Work on your hobbies as well.

Find good reads.

Make good conection.

Find someone with more experience in life as a teacher, one reliable whom you can trust and share your plans with him.

Check on your weight, comes easy, but jard to get rid of. Exercise.

Focus on your self, try to grow as a person through knowledge and wisdom. Read a few books on how to have proper small talk, or maybe how to deal with stress and obstacles like having to get a steady job, don’t worry about getting a house if you still live with your parents, and make sure to save up for retirement right away if you can.
Get disability money too, you can get it even though you are a functioning human being…

Learn ways to better connect with people if you struggle with that, I know I do especially at your age. Learn healthy boundary setting, self love, and try to establish meaningful connections.

I agree with everything everyone else has said too, and also remember your brain is still developing so take care of yourself.

For me the best thing I did was get on good terms with my parents

My parents are very strict and can raise a lot of fuss over things

When I was 23 I wanted to completely break from them as I saw them as a hindrance

They were never physically abusive to me in any way shape or form but emotionally and psychologically it was tough

Yes, good for you, but avoid hospitalization, because Sz is a chronic disease.

If you can work, concentrate on finding a good profession you can support yourself on if you don’t already have one. If you’re in school, work toward getting into a profession you can support yourself on.

At 23, I was married with a small house we took care of and updated. I had a bachelor degree I had gotten at 21. I was working at a job I could support myself on.

That was really important because my husband left me for someone else when I was 24. I bought the house from him and supported myself. My job had healthcare, dental, vision and 401k.

Oh, have and enjoy being young! That’s so important.
