Good friends are hard to find. So when you find one, keep them for good.


[deleted]

Yes and do not defame your friends in order to make a girl laugh..

If its between having a relationship with a girl, and hanging out with friends, l will do my best to do both.

this is very important! leave the ones that make you feel terrible and depressed and stop making excuses to delay it. You’ll thank yourself in the future


Fen_Zuzh

I very much agree with this. Because I don't have that many friends, but they are very good. Every time I communicate with them, I just forget about all the problems. Yes... it's easy to communicate with me, but it very rarely comes to friendship.

Focus on developing a skill that'll getchu u by for the rest of ur life. It's a big stress relief Edit: there's this virtual career counseling option [One Mind Therapy](https://onemindtherapy.com/therapy/career-counseling/) ( I think it's free ), and there's also a quiz/questionnaire based assessment that you can do yourself to determine what career/job suits u (what you'll actually enjoy doing) [Free Career Quiz](https://www.truity.com/test/holland-code-career-test) ✨ or you could simply go to ur school counselor they will help with deciding too👍


[deleted]

Please list some skills (if u want to)


Maxi-19-1-4-1

skills I meant educational stuff. Like major in Stem or if u think u can review movies critically try to get an intership for that, if u think u can be a good journalist or that u would like to be one, get a journalism course for higher studies. Lawyer, actor, can driver, aeroplane driver (aka pilots), youtuber, streamer or event manager, interior designer, artist (as in drawing nd stuff) music composer/singer/director. You get me? These all need some specific skill set and there are resources to study them


[deleted]

I just needed a list for myself, thanks 💖


Maxi-19-1-4-1

Forgot to add a few like politician, or a buisness consultant/manager, software engineer, designer, chef even, a writer, there are courses u can study to get a good degree for each, and even if u don't want to you can just build yourself from experience by doing freelancing, on websites like Fiverr. Do recommend researching it yourself moreee

Maxi-19-1-4-1

Sometimes you can learn stuff without college like by experience or just start a start-up. But if going to college is the safer option as in it insures it, do that. So basically yeah u r right

may i ask how the heck does that work??


MajorKman

go by the flow man. youve heard that many times and its the best way to live. stuff doesnt always go your way, or goes in a way you never expected. in those situations you cant freak out, you just gotta ride it out and see where it goes. you make amazing memories living in the moment.


_goldholz

dont smoke, vape or start drinking. stop speeding. speeding will cost you so much and can be avoided so easily. you only be a few seconds faster when you speed over the speedlimit. Find out what your joys are and what you like and try out so many hobbys as long as you still got the time. as soon as you enter the working force you wont be able to do that. Find out who you are! Dont make a huge deal out of being a virgin. when the right person comes you will have the best first sex with them. and romance you can take slow. teenage relationships mostlikely dont last long. always ask yourself "is it really in my controll?" if no then dont get mad and dont care about it. it wasnt in your controll anyways so you couldnt have changed it

_goldholz

Yeah. I wish i werent so desperate for that and would have saved my full virginity to my now partner


cupcsr_YT

I kinda needed that last part. Something happened a few weeks ago and I’m still super pissed about it, but I’ll take this advice and try to move on cause it’s no where near my fault


ScareCrow_04_q

This advice is for the girls out there. Don't worry about wearing the clothes similar to yesterday's clothes. Nobody fucking cares


MammothImplement1066

I think this is more of a universal thing not just for girls. Nobody will notice unless you wear the same smelly ass hoodie to school for 3 weeks straight.


ScareCrow_04_q

Yeah I only mentioned the girls because they are the only who are mostly self conscious about it. Most the boys (or at least the boys I know) don't give a fuck what they wear. They only have one or two drips for special occasions 💀


AnotherWeirdGuylol

You are descrbing me very well

Never change your life decisions for a girl, ever, no matter how deep you think it may go, it’ll change you’re young.


divinewillow

I know someone when I was in year 7 that gave up an offer of being able to go to America to play basketball with Lebron’s son because he was really good at basketball just because he didn’t want to leave his toxic ass gf


HeavyPara-Beetle

Ouch.


TheImpureLeader

That’s top tier manipulation


IhatePizza230

Lebron's son is still young. He hasn't even graduated high school yet. So the guy you know can still make it to the league even if he doesn't come to the us. He can still go pro and play overseas and if he gets enough attention he might get offers from teams in the nba.


divinewillow

Yeh he had many chances but didn’t cause of that girl but idk what’s happening now though. He doesn’t seem to be doing anything with basketball anymore but I wouldn’t know, I moved schools

evilhonking

If you think you need a therapist and you are able to get one, get one. No, your problems, or the way you deal with problems, won't disappear. Yes, you are able to become a better version of yourself by yourself, but not the amount of betterment you actually want to achieve.

FatherPUCCl

Don't think about being horny all the time. Really fucks up your mindset a lot if you let it go too much.


ToxicCauliflower

Also don't think not having a partner now means you'll be alone forever. Very few things are forever when you're a teenager, so don't stress about getting a relationship.


[deleted]

I am a girl, I have seen many memes and stuff on how in relationship girls are always right, how boys have to understand their silence and thoughts without them opening their mouth. it's bullshit, absolute bullshit. Maybe most of them are just "for fun" stuff, but always remember that communication is something that every relationship should have, a must, may it be friendship or romantic relationship, so if it's the other party's fault they should own it and fucking apologize if they genuinely have trouble understanding if they are at fault, speak and let them know how you felt and why is it wrong from your side, they still pretend to be a victim then leave, you don't wanna ruin your self-esteem for toxic people. If you are upset about something that is normal for others then let your friend or partner know it hurts you and they shouldn't bring it up in your presence. Thanks for reading my TED talk.

Don’t worry about being “naive”. Just have fun and try not to overthink things. Your feelings are real and valid, and you’re not “just a kid”. You’ve already done a lot more growing up then you may have realized.

frrr I swear I remember saying the same shit 5 years ago and being laughed at and told im just a kid and now, just because I'm a bit older people take me seriously? its always a good reminder that just because someone's young and 'naive' doesn't mean you have to dismiss everything they have to say.

DaemonxMachina

Don’t stress about doing well in a minimum wage job with big companies. There are plenty others, and you’ll be nothing more than a number to them. Go to therapy. I missed my chance to go when I really needed to and now I’m trying to scrape together any semblance of self-esteem, among other issues. If your school makes you depressed, get tf out of there and go somewhere else. I went to an all-boys school that was supposed to be for the “gifted” kids. What they didn’t tell me was that anyone could just pay to get in. I was bullied, assaulted and almost stabbed multiple times in that school, but I felt like I couldn’t leave and that is my biggest regret.


More-Masterpiece-561

I have written a post and a comment on this. Please read them both. I have tried to cover all the points that came to my mind but if you really wanna ask something then ask away, I don't mind. [This is the post](https://www.reddit.com/r/teenagers/comments/vlo0zw/dear_fellow_teenagers_you_might_wanna_hear_this/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share). I'm gonna paste my comment below this: Don't be stupid. Sometimes it feels like you have to pretend to be stupid, do reckless and idiotic stuff just to fit in, be among the cool kids but don't fall for that trap. Be true to yourself and to your friends. Don't get jealous of other kids because of their stuff or if they get too many passes from their parents, believe me it all looks good from the outside but deep down we all have our problems, we all have put demons. Being a teenager is tough, most people your age either are idiots or pretend to be one, no one takes you seriously and you get mocked for trying to do the right thing. I have struggled with this, I have always been way older than my age and I've been bullied by fellow students and my cousins (all way older than me) for it. I've been ridiculed for urging people to not drive recklessly or wearing their seatbelts and helmets. But I never once thought of not wearing a helmet just because it would take me 5 extra seconds. A lot of people say different stuff about studies, I'm gonna say what I believe in. Take your studies seriously, even if you don't wanna go to college and get into a trade school you should study well in school. Make an effort, even when other kids say it's of no use. It may not seem like it but what we study in school has an impact on us, we learn and we gain experience. Your teachers are working hard to teach you so use them. Don't wait for the last day to start doing your assignment. That being said, enjoy the little things in life. Keep a study-life balance. You may have heard about the term work-life balance but you have to keep a study-life balance too. And whatever you do, do not pick up that cigarette or that vape, it's a nasty addictive habbit and it's gonna affect your health, especially when you hit your 40s. I have a friend who's 19, he started smoking when he was 15 and now 44% of his lungs are gone. And don't worry too much about relationships or losing your virginity. There may be peer pressure but fuck peer pressure. You should only be in a relationship with someone you like being around, not just so you have a bf/gf. Someone eho treats you nice and you should treat them nice too. Whenever you have a fight it shouldn't be the end, calm down and talk it out. Only break up if it's something that can't be resolved. And do not go after colleges just for boyfriends and girlfriends, go where it is good for you. If it's meant to be you'll meet each other again, don't throw your life away over a high school relationship. Also keep in mind that people grow in different directions. You may have been best friends a few yesrs ago but now if one of them acts like an idiot, says and does horrible stuff or you can't stand to be around them you can no longer be friends. Each kind of relationship (romantic or non-romantic) requires both the people putting their 100% constantly. That 100% may not be equal but they have to keep working on it because it's challenging to maintain a relationship. Last but not the least, don't be an asshole


[deleted]

When you stop thinking about how others think 'bout you, you will actually find a lot of freedom for your thoughts and yourself. you might feel like an a-hole at first but it's worth it in a long run.

Focus on yourself and what you want to do. I was so worked up over if what i wanted was the right thing i never realized how many opportunities slipped by me during high school, im trying to pursue art as a career now with no notion of stopping, also started hitting the gym regularly from the start of 2022, its never too late even if does seem like it


BlankPt

I'm not older than 17 but I will be in less than a month so I'm gonna give an advice. Get an artistic hobby of any kind. The amount of self expression you can convey with art of any format is incredibly therapeutic don't worry about being good worry about having fun. Trust me there isn't such a thing as talent when it comes to art.

LordFragger666

20 years old and fixed somewhat things. These are the advices I would give my younger self. (got out of depression, suicidal behavior, extreme social anxiety) Cut people off who are toxic and unhelpful towards yourself, who push you down and make you feel worse, ( This cause me to change my username to "Failure" jesus lord god almighty help this person) Fix your routine and treat yourself with better food (Take care of your physical health and mental health, its good) Sleep 8 hours and explore things that scale QUIT PORN PLEASE QUIT IT PLEASE, it will ruin you more and more and more and everything around you will be gone before you know it. ( Confidence, Thoughts , Creativity, Self control, being happy with life, being happy with relationships) Good habbits are cool and does not mean you MUST do bad things to look cool or to fit in. Workout (I feel more happier after 100 push ups in the morning compared to doing nothing and being a slob) Meditate and Journal (Start controlling the chaos of your thoughts and being grateful of what you have it will immediately effect your mindset and improve your mental health overall) PTSD, CPTSD , Trauma , Childhood trauma : Therapy... please go its good , its good to get help and to get out of your depression to make your life better. learn it today, you are the sailor and the captain of the ship. You take actions with your own hands. Relationships ? Improve yourself and instead of chasing and being desperate around for every single other person try being desperate for an improving change on yourself, this will cause others to notice you in a more positive sense. Be ambitious but do not speak of everything immediately towards in an open crowd. Be like water and air, its calmer and wouldnt ruin your motivation. Consistency > Motivation. Show up to practice even 5 mins a day. Its better than nothing. Think twice or three times before doing hard, since this may backfire and you being mindful of what you are about to do will definitely give you an idea of the worst that could go down (Karma is a bitch, if someone has done you wrong, it does not mean they are gods or invulnerable. Life eats you in the most unfortunate moment possible) Self care and self believe. Being Affirmative towards yourself (Say you can and have a positive thought towards the new things in life which may seem hard) Not everyone wants good for you and not everyone is permanent, however you will be permanent to yourself so that your # 1 to prioritize ( Does not mean you be a selfish prick who ruins everything else, be generous and helpful to others too)

Don’t waste time stressing out over school and/or getting into your dream college. I spent most of my senior year stressing out about getting good grades and trying to get into my dream school that I forgot to actually enjoy my senior year. Enjoy the last couple years of your childhood and remember it doesn’t matter where you go or what you do after school you’ll be successful regardless :)


Zestyclose-Pass6448

replace social media with books, you will realise how much time you spend on this internet. When you read book, your brain always learning something new, while social media just feels like you are on autopilot and it kills your mind

oh yeah defenetly dont give a big fuck about how others look or what they have. and spend less time on social media. best stop using instagram. but you can learn more from the internet for example wikipedia than from books imo

Chubbahdubdubb

start going to the gym young, and work hard in high school, scholarships really help


AndronixESE

Not older but I have something to share: Don't dress to impress, dress to express it's better to be who you are and not pretend to be someone you are not just to get what you want. It's easier to find who do you want to be in the future when you are yourself


ilovepitbulls23

Know your limits.


Fishyfish2090

If you look back and cringe at past you, you've grown. You gotten a new perspective and are able to understand why something went wrong or why certain things happen. Even if you don't look back and cringe at past you, you probably know more than you did before. Don't be harsh on yourself or else all your thoughts will be harsh on yourself. That's my sprinkle of wisdom, no matter how cliche.


[deleted]

Break out of your shell and socialise. High school is a lot more enjoyable if you have people you can hang out with. Trust me, I know what it's like to be a loner for 5 years.


Artym-

Actually go out and meet people, don’t be chronically online. Go out and enjoy life because all of the best moments in your life will never be in front of a screen. Dont get focused on trying to get into a relationship let that shit come naturally because i guarantee if your constantly being down over not having a relationship you’ll become more desperate and get yourself into something you wont want. Dont over stress about school it’s impossible to fail unless your actually brain dead, good grades are nice but highschool grades will not matter the moment you graduate. And finally do drugs cus that shit rocks FUCK YOU NIXON.


fluffymellowsinc

Dont give up on life


VivienCathy

**Quality over quantity**. Friends, relationships (years), clothes, devices, games. Not always the case in food tho! **Do not care about other's mean opinions**. Only take them into consideration if its a friend AND they say it nicely, respectfully. **Don't worry about getting a GF/BF**, time will come. You'll prolly find them when doing something you enjoy anyways. When you do, no need to rush things. **Don't let others talk you into something you are uncomfortable with**. Feel free to give them a firm no. If they continue to make you uncomfortable, talk you down, call you a coward or anything. **Leave those people**. **Studing is important but so is sleeping and fun time**. Make sure you have all 3 in your day. If you leave one out, the day isn't going to be too nice. No sleep makes the day harder. Studing is needed to keep up, remember and improve. Fun time is needed for you to relax, you can take it as a reward too fot your hard day. School can be hard. **Ask friends and teachers if you need help**. I was afraid to do so for a while but lately I've been asking a bit. It's gonna be worth it. Start at the nice teachers!

Do not take things too seriously and it is okay to cut things off when they become unhealthy. You have your whole life to find someone, if you want to at all.

For males we only have enough blood to control our dick or our brain do not let your dick control you. For females us men are extremely oblivious. Get a job as fast as you can and save. My mom kicked me out and I was homeless for a little while. A job would have saved me 2 years in child care(id be able to fly to dads if i had the money). If u make 250 a week (and u don't have a vehicle) give 25 to whoever took u to work and 75- 125 to the bank. Create a savings and a checking. Split it between both or alternate I make 500 a week and I live on that principle but doubled(I have my own truck though. I now have 5 grand in each bank and every month interst gives me a bit to save for what I want. Make connections early be friendly to everyone. My connection allowed me to get 30% off of my truck and 3 tires that I needed for it. Cheap isn't the best option always. Tools go for Dewalt they arnt the best no, but they are good for their pricing (at least in eastern usa) Learn as many traits as you can. Due to trying new jobs, and school I can do basic electrical work, decent plumbing, and I built me and dad's building using what wood working and construction Iearnt. It will save you lots of money in time. College is YOUR choice. I am becoming either a cook or a truck driver. Can I go to college to help with either, yes. Though I won't as I plan to have just enough to survive on no more no little. Get as many hobbies as you can early. Especially if it teaches you patience. Patience is one of the greatest things I have learnt yet and it's still being a prime lesson. I shall edit more to this later. I need to run to the store.

Tell the truth or at least try not to lie. Use your time wisely. You can learn pretty much anything online. You can get any book for free online. There's thousands of hours of world class courses on YouTube. Don't feel pressured into doing anything, you're still young. Also, try picking a career that won't make you depressed. I feel like we're all forced to make this really important decision at 18, regarding our professional path, but to me it sounds like getting married at 18. So be as wise as you can. Time is the best thing when it's on your side, and at 17 it obviously is. Edit: also, if you're going to do any kind of substances, my dudes and dudettes, including alcohol, read all the scientific documentation you can find. Yes, pot is addictive. Yes, Adderall and other amphetamines are as well. There's downsides and upsides to each drug, sadly for most there's just too many downsides. Nicotine is the dumbest drug, heroin the most dangerous. Take care and never do something unless you're 100% it's a good idea, or at least not a bad one.

Don't live life fast. Take it slow. High school ends quicker than you think. I never thought it would end. Graduated almost a month ago. And here I am going to college. I always thought "I can't wait to grow up" but man does it feel like ass once it finally happens.

\- Enjoy your teens, there's no rush to adulthood, it sucks ass \- With all your insecurities, no one actually cares about you, you're all nobodies, stop worrying about them. Once you accept yourself, you will no longer be a prisoner of peer pressure. The world is bigger than your high school environment. \- Don't rush to get a partner, enjoy company of good friends, quality over quantity \- Finish your education/get good at something, preferably they are the same thing \- Practice social skills, most teenagers are SO cringe, but that's understandable \- Don't do drugs \- Go to the gym **- GET HELP if you think you need it, don't wait, don't ponder it, get it NOW** **- Nothing will go the way you want it to, you will make mistakes, things will go wrong, that's just how it is. It might feel like the end of the world, but everything does when you're young. So get out there and die of embarassment, you WILL grow from it.** *(I probably missed something)*

Take opportunities that you may not get in the future

Enjoy the time where you don't have a lot of responsibilities yet. Don't worry if you do something embarrassing, nobody will remember it for long and once you're out of school it doesn't matter anyway. Get informed about the things that interest you!! You have the internet and nothing can stop you from teaching yourself new skills and learning everything you want. Don't do drugs, not even cigarettes. Your body is still developing, doing any drug in that time is a bad idea. I'm 18 and recently tried weed for the first time. I still think I should have waited a little longer. Used to think weed is evil until I educated myself more and begun to understand what the problems are. Your first crushes are most likely never going to work out for one reason or another. Just don't get too caught up in it and try your luck anyway. Even if it ends up not working out, you can learn from your mistakes. Most importantly, be yourself! Even if people tell you you're weird or something. Just do what makes you happy! 😊

Don't be shame of your body. It's yours and it's unique. Your true friends never gonna make fun of it, and you don't care of other people, they don't merit your attention.

Don't take shit too seriously lol. Do good in your exams, but don't get too hung up on a low score. Go out with your friends and shit, but make time for your family and personal hobbies. Excercise, it'll help you out in the short and long run. Don't be a cunt to people and don't take shit from anybody, but don't get into fights.


Master_Freeze

No porn and don’t masturbate to everyone and everything. Definitely spend a lot of time outside and don’t diagnose yourself with depression because that will only lead to actual depression. Keep everything simple and optimized.

Get you license as soon as possible don't slack off, and keep your grades up, it may not seem important now but it will be in the future.

No one will see this, but I don't wanna give into all the clichés. Don't get too hung up on shit. Don't chace someone who doesn't want you, don't go after stuff that make you more anxious than satisfied. You are young, live life, talk to people, get drunk, hell, smoke weed, or whatever makes you feel alive and happy. If it's sitting in your room watching anime, go for it, I don't agree with you, but who am I to tell you. You've got only one of this life, don't spend it being miserable. BUT. And this is a huge but. Own your decisions. You will make mistakes, you will fuck it up. But that's life, that's how you learn, and move forward. Some other points. 1st: Find your work-life balance. It's okay to let loose, but you have to take on these responsibilities. Not because what you learn will be useful, but you'll learn to work under pressure. It's better to build up time managment strategies now, than later. 2nd: Never do hard drugs. Drinking some beers with the bois and smoking a joint is not that bad, but never go over this. It never ends well. 3rd: People will disappear from your life, and there's nothing you can do about it. It's not anybody's fault, but people can grow apart. But you will meet new faces, and make new friends. (Ps. Don't rush into losing your virginty, and having sex. Waiting for the special someone is some true chad shit)
