    You're about to develop a very painful jaw problem. Don't bother with the TMJ specialists. Just go to your dentist. He rocks.

    Don't marry him! Run the other direction and just stay single and on your own.

    Well, I was eleven... I would probably tell myself to get therapy for my anxiety disorder NOW before it ruined my academic life.

    He will enter your life. Don't believe he is who he appears to be no matter how close it looks like he is to what you want. It's all smoke and mirrors. That's what they do - take on the persona of who they think you want them to be in order to make you want THEM. It's real for you. It's not for them. People that love you don't treat you like that. Never would you ever believe all the things you will learn about NPD. And never would you believe how long it will take for you to feel like yourself again. Listen to me!!!!!

    (That felt really, really good!)

    If I could go back ten years, I'd yell....don't do it! lol! BUT, I would not have learnt as much as I have if It had not been for the mistakes I had made. Just a thought. So, in hindsight, perhaps, it would actually have been...."Do it, but be happy being you and don't let anyone take that away from you."

    10 years ago...I would tell myself that no guy is worth what I allowed them to put me through, save money to buy a house, don't get married, go back to school NOW instead of waiting! All my choices have made me who I am today, and I try to not regret anything I've ever done, but I have to say there is one person I completely regret meeting and wasting 2 years of my life on...I try to pretend it was just a really long horrible nightmare...

    Also I would tell myself to NOT buy houses in California buy a bunch of smaller houses in Texas instead. Oh and invest heavily in that Google thingy.

    Invest in Goggle, Facebook, etc... Bike ride you enjoy it. Stop stress eating, you'll gain 70 lbs.

    Hug you mom more she'll be gone before you know it.

    Spend more time with family. Figure out what big data is.


    Cheers

    Realize that he's addicted to pain pills and divorce him now rather than 10 years later when it's so much more painful and there is so much more to a divorce. Hanging in there will never change the way he is even though he's not using anymore (that you know of), so you need to move on. Though now it feels like you've wasted 20 years of your life.

    You are going to go through some very trying, exhausting and sorrowful times with your children, especially your daughter. You didn't cause it, you can't control it and you can't cure it!

    STOP EATING DUMBASS!
  • Spend a little more time traveling! Don't give up on your dreams so fast, you just finished culinary school. It will be a while before you "make it". Gordon Ramsey didn't do it over night. Joining the military isn't bad thing, it's just not your ideal career.

    don't give up on school. Fight to do what is needed for your son and leave your mother and her husband behind asap before bad things happen...

    Things won't change

    Don't buy the house

    Leave your job now and go back to school

    After your daughter is born you'll go through a rough 5 years, but find strength you never thought you had.

    I would've told my 7 year old and 115 pound self to stop eating so much unhealthy foods because I'll regret it in the future.

    There's only one thing that I currently would absolutely tell myself not to do, I've made lots of stupid decisions in the past ten years but almost every single one of them has probably gotten me to the best things I have now.

    Don't Move to NC to try to form a relationship with your sister in law and DEFINITELY do NOT have a baby for her. Actually I only have to go back 7 years.
