I'd say:
"Protect your ears all of the discomfort you've been experiencing is from a condition called "hyperacusis" it will only get worse with time if you don't protect in environments where vibrations reach above 90db so go on amazon and buy some iems or earplugs & take them everywhere you go." - 406 opinions shared on Other topic.
Get stationed in Japan, not NC.

I know we're limited, but I'd probably choose any of these, though I think even if I had tried these, I probably wouldn't have gotten far, so I wonder if I'd be in the same situation with not much improvement.
1) It does get a little better.
2) Do what you can to get out of the house, and don't let the parents control you as much as they did with me.
3) Hell, get out of the state when you can. It's not a good place for you.
4) Learn and practice interacting with women - It's not fun, because many will remain horrible to you, but learn how to deal with them - stick up for yourself and work to become as attractive as you can be. (You'll still be too short, and probably too poor for most of them, but maybe if you look better, you might feel better). - 972 opinions shared on Other topic.
Just have fun and don't let anyone else try to tell you how you should enjoy life.

Stand up for yourself earlier excessive violence will spare you years of torment.
I waited until I was almost 17 to stand up for myself in a brutally sadistic way resulting in my bullies being terrified for the next 2 years of school. Had I done it at 13 that would have saved me a lot of problems. Sure the person requires assisted care now but he'll always remember that bullying and assaulting people has consequences and hopefully he has shared that message with others. Fuck you Doug enjoy the consequences of your actions

I asked pretty much this same question maybe a year ago or so...
" Broaden your thoughts , understand the plethora of options you have , invest , invest , invest , be cautious with associations , you can achieve anything "
- Which is probably the exact opposite compared to what I had forced upon me at age 15 - 16 , very negative parent.

Be kind to yourself. That you're worthy of love and basic human kindness. While you may not love yourself someone will and be able to show you maybe you are worth living

My is a harsh one and I will get a lot hate but I don't care. For me woul be stop taking over your parents role andstop worrimg so much for your youngersiblings. In adulthood your mom is not going to give not one dam s*** that your struggling so why waste my time in helping mom around the house. Watching younger siblings is not your responsibility that is mom's JOB! I am 100%honest this is the advice I would give my younger self.

Your viewpoints you had of the future, not what you wanted to happen, but the others in the back of your head, it did happen. Read the bible even more, dont procrastinate. Look into things. Be prepared.
At any rate, the truth is...
The past is the past, it can't be changed. Only the present, but people dont want to listen to the voice in their head that tells the truth. Its the carnal mi d vs the frontal lobe,... which one will win? - 755 opinions shared on Other topic.
love yourself and trust those who are always there for you

You're actually a really handsome dude even though you don't know it right now, and so you need to keep your head up and start asking girls out if you want to realize your actual dating potential.

To my 16 year old self,
Quit trying to find a relationship. It will save you 4,000 dollars in dinners and gas to get to them. I went on 40 dates with 40 girls. One date and the said they "Weren't interested", or "I'm too nice", or "I'm not their type". I've had enough of this time and money wasting bullshit.

Let him know what confidence really is, give him guidance on what a real friend is, and tell him to make sure to spend time with grandma while he can, and make sure the doctors understand her blood pressure issues, so they don't kill her during cancer treatment.

Love yourself and workout hard because there isn't anyone out here ever gonna love or fulfill you. Focus on school and getting money. Forget the fairy tale dream of a loving husband, 3 kids, a dog and a white picket fence, because that's not for you. Stop being scared to get mental help, just get antidepressants and anxiety pills it will make dealing with others soooooo much easier, when you're not constantly overthinking everything lol.

Nothing, he has to take the steps he did to become me.
There is one bit of advice that would have prevented a life altering mistake, but he'd have become a politician if that didn't happen and he would not have liked the end result now I know what the end result would have been. - 2.3K opinions shared on Other topic.

You don't need to care what the vast majority of people think about you - only the opinions of maybe a dozen people you really respect should be of concern to you

Save every cent. Don't get angry, it's a waste of time, instead look for solutions. Try out everything at once, on the way you will find your passion.

Don't starve yourself but eat normal and still lose weight. Why I chose this is because in my teen years I had a poor diet and messed my whole body up, still today I'm paying for it.
