RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Everyone has stuff they cringe about themselves. If you don’t, you’re probably doing cringe-worthy things lol.
Like others said, you’re growing and this is maturity.
Plus, don’t feel bad about what you did when you felt suicidal. You clearly were not right in the head. I hope you are doing better now.
At least you can say that for yours. Some of the stuff that keeps me up at night is just me being a dumb kid lol…I remember posting on Facebook about “hacking” when I was talking about rooting my phone using tools that were publicly available. Ughhhhhhhhhhh that shit lives with me daily. One acquaintance called me out on it that real hackers don’t post their shit online and I just shrivel up and cringe inside whenever my mind randomly reminds me of that.
Take care. You’ll have more as you grow into adulthood, as we all do.
