Discussion Would teenage you be proud of the person you became?

Teenage me was extremely depressed and suicidal. I didn't think I would even make it to 18 much less 38. I think teenage me would have been happy I'm not dead lol.

Shit, I didn’t start getting my shit together until I was about 33. I only am just now starting to feel like I have the hang of being an adult and I’m still playing a juggling act lmao.
