¿What year would you like to go back to if you could?

Considering when you were happy, if you consider that you are not happy now? I would go back to 2007, there was no schizophrenia or responsibilities.

I would like to go back about 3.5 hours ago so I can see where I set my phone this time.

I wouldn’t go back. I don’t want to change the end result of being with my husband.

All the troubles in our lives eventually brought us together.

Can I say back to the future?
The future will become the past to another point further along the timeline, it is all relative.

Or perhaps I would like to go back (say a few decades behind) to before western civilization ended, which was probably somewhere around the early 20th century, so back to the ~1870s or even the pre-civil war era for me.

Imagine you could build up entire empires with the fine, and advanced art, of bathing with soap.

(Seriously, the mortality rate was atrocious for basic things like disease and hygiene management.)

2023 because I could have started the programme i’m on then, and been starting third year by now. But my housing hadn’t been sorted till later that year.

This year is more interesting than the last 12 ones. So I wouldn’t go back in time.

2009 and break up with my ■■■■ boyfriend at the time. I was so optimistic and full of life at the time.

2009 also. I was the fittest I’ve ever been while in the middle of a medless stint. I would take the meds and be careful not to gain weight on that night where the ambulance and police picked me up! :innocent:

I would go back to 1986 when Eddie Money Covered Rock Band Billy Satellite’s song “I want to go back”.
I had great times in 1986.

  1. I would make sure I got help for my illness sooner.

Or maybe like 1918. Victorian era England interests me.

I also wouldn’t go back. My childhood was extremely traumatic. But now I’m with the loml. My symptoms are managed. Things are so much better now than they were before.
