Full of Regret

I’m full of regrets and I’ve got to stop thinking this way. I think mostly, if only I’d tried in school most, I’d be better off. I guess I think I could have avoided mental illness if I’d been “good”. And it’s strange I think this way because I believe my fate was sealed very early on and it can’t be altered. Anyway, I’m full of Regret. But I was a nasty boy.

Only if that’s what you truly believe. Today is the first day of the rest of your life, so why not do something with it?

I think these things about myself too. I think my mental illness is partly my own fault but I also think mostly it’s not. I feel bad sometimes about dropping out of high school and college but even if I didn’t I’m sure I still would’ve ended up working a job I hate.

just run with it is my feeling. make the best of your situation and the best of your life and it will build on itself.

i don’t like to remember that i also feel guilty about being MI. i didn’t sink anyone’s ship – they sunk mine but i will go on.

I go through periods of bitter regret too.

I’ve lost the desire to blame others for my life though. I guess that’s some “progress”.

Its not your fault. The inflammation would have happened regardless of if you did school or not.

The illness is often seen from a psychological perspective but oft forgotten to be a neurological one

Please dont feel bitter or bad about yourself

Sometimes I rack my brains about the This and That of my Life and other times I see my mental illness cannot be denied as the main cause of my trouble but at the same time I type this I think maybe it is maybe it isn’t… I go thru my ups and downs and hate it and the good is great and the bad is horrible - sounds like I’m a manic dep - I would suggest you frame your thoughts and build them on good ones and hold them - steady as she goes

Regret to me is doubt. I’m trying not to doubt myself so much these days. Difficult for me to say the least but I believe is attainable.
