Work stress definitely doesn't help, mostly from dumbass co-workers more than anything, long hours and general mentally draining work, toss in a splash of PTSD and liquor helps with a dreamless sleep which is what I need. I legit do not remember the last time I got more than 6 hours of sleep, most days it's 4 hours or so; at this point outrunning the hangover is the goal, only days I do not drink are days I work double shifts so 3-4 days no alcohol but I make up for it on the other days.

Oddly, never once puked from drinking, no clue why; blacked out a lot, but never puke.

You regret never having had a serious girlfriend, or you regret that you ever having a serious girlfriend, because you could've smashed many other women? If it's the latter - I mean if you're in a serious relationship and regularly feel regret that you're in it because you want to smash others - GET OUT IMMEDIATELY.

This is bodybuilding.com - some sweets are fine, I'm sure

That's crazy. But what haunts you so much that you think of escaping? Smoking and drinking are a killer combo. Sorry to read you hit those bottoms - it can be really tough. I hope you're okay, or will be.

Kinda regret doing so much speed and all the other drugs when I was younger. Although I am thankful I was such a hardcore addict that I crashed and burned in my early-mid 20s and didn't waste my entire life away. But am happy with where I'm at now so can't say I regret it that much, live and learn

Maybe not taking up a melodic instrument as a kid.

There are many significantly more consequential things I wish I would have done differently, but I find it hard to regret them given what I knew at the time; yeah, I'm pretty unhappy now because of my decisions, but I still think they were good decisions for what I knew then.

I guess I make few mistakes but plenty of wrong choices.

Are you financially fu*ked? Location: Toronto. Anyone I know there has been focused on money since birth, except some of the Forest Hill and Rosedale types.

Yeah I felt it yesterday - a sort of headache. I'm on decaf coffee now, we started that since my wife's pregnancy. I felt weirdly 'wired'. I go through a myle mini a day I guess? Sometimes more. Googling says it is equivalent to a pack of smokes (1 mini), god damn...

Two things:

1) Not striking it while the iron is hot with gorgeous girls. Lost my chance, and definitely would have wifed the chit outta one of those girls, and have a family underway already.

2) Not getting my PhD topic right the first time, it cost me a few years and dragged it out into my 30s. I really wanted to be all finished with school by 30.
Back off, Warchild.

Seriously.

Not realizing that partying and getting bad grades in university closed a lot of doors later in life and were expensive to reopen in both money and time. Once I figured out what I wanted to do for a profession my university transcript was useless. If I'd just gotten B's instead of D's it would have made a big difference and didn't require a lot of effort (which I know now).

I had an amazing time at school in many ways socially but that's the one thing I wish I'd done differently.

I was a 14 year virgin in 9th grade and two girls in my class offered to have a threesome with me. I was too scared and had no clue what to do so I declined. Would have been epic way to lose it.

I think back, 15 years ago, and wish I had never tried that cigarette. Might sound like a very minor regret to you guys, but it's the biggest regret I can think of right now.

You vape too? And shouldn't you have never tried cigarettes, like I suggested in the OP for me?

...Being overly conservative financially.

I have no clue where the money went I responsibly didnt spend but I've tracked the investments I could have made and I would have been a LOT richer at this point.

Spending WAY too much time obsessing about men--what does their text mean, how to get them into a relationship, constantly checking my phone.

What a waste of time and energy in retrospect.

I used to. Switched to ecigs so I can quit smoking cigarettes. Realized what a horrible idea that was like two years later. Now I'm back to cigarettes but down to about 3-4 a day.

Ecigs are the worst way to quit smoking.

SRS: have you sought help? PTSD and the combination of your stresses takes a serious toll. You don't have to carry thar heavy burden forever breh.

There are folks on Wall Street who studied English....who worked their way up. Just saying.

Yeah, live and learn. If you learn from those moments you don't end up beating yourself up over them, srs. I tried plenty of that in Berlin's party and sex scene. Don't miss it at all.

That is the strange thing for me too really. Nicotine is so powerful yet all these other "hard droogs" people mention had no addictive effect on me at all.

pissing away hs, college, and early 20s on being a loser gamer. Luckily i sorted myself out a bit with better hobbies, landed decent career and got a great gf now with friends but that time will be lost. I regret it but also at the same time, it could have been way worse lol

cigarettes are definitely one.

I regret every time I stop a regular workout schedule.

Watching really stupid TV shows in the 80-'s and 90's...now if I can't find anything great on I find other things to do.

I wish I had spent more time outdoors skiing, camping and hiking, love that stuff

Biggest one, not cheating on my ex-wife. I remained faithful until I moved out and just pissed away shots with some great girls.

Being wreckless with my health when I was young, drinking too much, smoking cigs for years

Being incredibly irresponsible with money and buying stupid fuking cars, racking up debts for nothing and not investing my money and buying property as soon as possible when i was young as well

Not being serious about a career immediately out of highschool

Luckily I have my chit together now and have a family, house, dependable car and get by but I could be so much further ahead in life

Could be much worse of course, incredibly grateful for my life
money, cars, clothes and hoes is all a miscer knows
