Your most important lesson learned?

Don't sweat the small stuff.

When i had psychosis I thought people were trying to kill me, other times I thought I had crossed over into Hell. It's time like that you realize a speeding ticket or a stolen video game aren't really a big deal because at least your not being hunted by killers or in the 5th circle of Hell.

Sweating minor problems is a sign that you fail to see the big picture and don't appreciate the physiological and safety needs you have met. If you don't have to worry about your next meal or your health you're extremely lucky. Count your blessings instead of obsessing over small problems.
 
never date a girl who suffers from bi-polar and panic attacks

IT WONT END WELL
 
Be very, very careful with your money.

Well, ok not the most important for me but it's up there.
 
Learning to expand my taste in music has been extremely valuable. When I was much younger I used to only stick to one realm of music, and if I caught myself liking something outside of it I would try to force myself not to like it. After I got out of high school I started expanding what I listen to and it's been great. Every genre has its own joys and treats.
 
I've learned not to judge people until you get to know them, even if you're around them a lot. Very often I've judged people by how I've seen them interact with others, but it wasn't until I interacted with them that I realized that I was wrong.

Also, you will never be ready for anything, but you can be prepared.
 
To realize that none of us deserve or are entitled to anything, and that I am the individual. I lay down my own path as I see fit and must walk it accordingly, for only I can walk it.
 
That everyone else on the internet is wrong, and you have to correct them.
 
^^
Lol, So true.

I learned that food goes in your mouth.
 
Where were you putting it before? :huh:
 
Don't cross the road if you can't get out of the kitchen.
 
No matter how unfair is the situation against you or even if you've decided to leave, quit opr abandom a person, project, job or whatever because of that very unfair situiation, if you're rightfully angry, don't speak or act untill your head is cold. You can make a strong statement with a silent act.
 
Never stick around longer than you should. Sometimes, when your instincts tell you to leave the first time, its best to listen.
 
I remember a switch that clicked in me in college. In high school, I was so painfully shy. I was sitting on my hands waiting for opportunity to fall in my lap. While I did ask people out, I still waited for the optimal situations and go through the friend route.

Then I stopped caring, if she said yes, great, if not, move on. And really stopped trying to go the friend zone.
 
Never ever get caught in huge amounts of credit card debt.
 
There's a difference between trying to help someone and trying to change them. If a friend has a problem, you should help them, but if they do something you don't like, you shouldn't try to force them to change, even if they say they want to at first. You just may end up making them angry and have them resent you.
 
Disappointment is inevitable, but misery is optional.
 
DO NOT push the Red button!*






(Unless you need to, of course.)
