Some things I wish I’d said to myself:
If I leave, what will actually happen?
It’s probably gonna be okay
If it’s true, I need not fear examining it
If I am not happy, that matters
What can I learn by leaving that current me will be glad to know?
I will still have my friends and if I don’t then those friendships weren’t gonna survive
Are decisions reversible?
I can fear something and do it anyway
I am likeable and loveable
