Emotional viral post reveals heartbreaking truths people wish they could tell their younger selves
Briefly

A Reddit thread on r/AskReddit asked users what advice they would give their younger selves, generating emotional responses and life lessons. Participants shared stories of regret and wisdom, advocating for self-care, leaving toxic relationships, and embracing independence. The heartfelt responses highlighted common themes of bravery and self-acceptance, with many users wishing they could reassure their past selves about future happiness. The thread quickly went viral, reflecting a collective struggle with life decisions and the desire to impart knowledge gained over time.
