"Dear Teenage Me,

If I could share three pieces of wisdom with you, they would be:

Stop Sweeping Things Under the Rug: Trust me, those problems you're shoving aside won't disappear. Deal with them head-on, even if it's tough. You'll save yourself from stumbling and hurting later on.

Keep Seeking Connections: Don't lose hope in friendships, especially when you're feeling low. Believe me, genuine companionship is out there waiting for you, even in your darkest moments.

Listen to People's Words: When someone tells you something, take it seriously the first time. It's not about potential or your own perception; it's about understanding and respecting their truth.

Remember, you're growing, learning, and becoming stronger every day. Embrace these lessons, and you'll navigate this journey with more grace and wisdom. 🌟

Love, Dr. Desiree Nicole

PS. You will smile when you see how far you come.

it's so wild to me when i see posts on r/teenagers or r/adviceforteens that handle relationships, everyone's first response is 'lmao break up youre young it doesnt matter'

okay but like. you shouldnt break up with someone you care about at the drop of a hat, young or not. some of the things these people advise a breakup over arent even breakup worthy, its just things where communication is needed, but everyone always jumps to push OP to break up.

it makes no sense to me because even if they're young and they don't work out, this is how to develop good and healthy relationship dynamics and habits. saw redditors tell a kid to break up with his girlfriend bc she was talking to his friend (not even in a cheating way) and he felt weird about it, talked to her, and she offered to block the friend to make him feel better. like?? they just need to communicate more. i dont give a fuck if they're 15, let them learn good relationship habits ffs.

How to cope with embarrassment around people

I don’t know about you, but I tend to get myself in embarrassing situations, some not even my fault but i’m left to deal with it. 

It’s even worse with people.

I recently heard some great advice from a family member: ‘(embarrassment) is a sensation, and all sensations are to be enjoyed.’ 

And i know what you’re thinking. Why should I enjoy embarrassment? My own personal answer for this when I asked myself is that it’s better than feeling sorry for yourself. 

So that’s tip number one:

Don’t feel sorry for yourself!

It takes so much practice, I know. This tip is along the wavelength of ‘laugh at your embarrassment’, but with a twist. 

Next Tip: Confront the situation instead of hiding.

Countless of times I try to hide in my own shame somewhere alone, away from people’s eyes. But sometimes the moment doesn’t allow for it, and then you’re stuck. So try to analyze what’s happening.

According to some science test, the best way to deal with an embarrassing moment is to use humor. So play those jokes and gestures like your life depends on it.

Next Tip: Apologize and then just let it go.

Depending on my mood I tend to either brush embarrassing moments briskly off like some sort of lawyer in a TV show or apologize a billion times for it. 

I and you should try to be a mix, a balance of both. Apologize and let it go. It turns out that apologizing all the time (even after the event occurred) makes you focus on the past and not the present. Crazy logical, right? Anyway, you don’t owe anything to any one of the people there (unless the event was REALLY bad), and neither to yourself, so pick yourself up!

Next Tip: Allow yourself to be flawed. 

Hey, I know what it’s like to beat yourself up about some little thing and make it into a big statement on how you’re a dumb-dumb human. 

Everyone gets embarrassed from time to time; what matters is how you deal with these situations. 

You’re stronger than you know.

Next Tip: Talk it out. 

With people, perhaps a friend or even one of your ‘witnesses’, or even just to the mirror. You just need to vocalize it instead of letting your mind dwell on it. 

Maybe your confidant will give the moment new perspective (which often happens to me!) or a positive twist to it.

And the final tip: Stop worrying what people think.

If you’re by yourself and you trip on something, you laugh at yourself. If you’re in public and you trip, you tend to look around to see if anybody just saw that. And god forbid if you tripped in front of your crush.

But hey, just act like you’re alone. Shake it off, laugh it off. Because people tend to be focusing on themselves more than you.

As humans, we greatly exaggerate our flaws. But to just not care and tell a joke about it does a whole great deal more than you realise. 

And guess what? If you’re embarrassed in front of people, then you obviously have something to lose. That means you have something with them in the first place, right? That’s a celebration in itself.

I hope you enjoyed this mini-essay! TLDR, embarrassing moments suck, but you’re stronger than you think, and as the age-old saying goes: just laugh it off.

If you want my advice to a question such as ‘how to cope with embarrassment’, then just write a question in my inbox thingy (don’t really know the tumblr slang ‘:D) and i’ll see what i can do. Until next time, readers!

PastMe

I recently learned about this website, FutureMe, where you can write letters to your future self.  What if there was one you could write to your past self, called PastMe?  Obviously, not to your actual self, but you would specify what teen angst you were addressing, how you feel about it now, regrets, advice, etc.  Did you fight with your mom a lot?  Are you BFFs now?  What caused the change?  Did you cut ties with her instead?  Why?  Do you regret it?  And people could search by relevant topic (i.e. rural small town, alcohol, parties).  And since you’ve been through it specifically, you could speak their language in a way that parents can’t, encourage them or show them what mistakes can cost them if they continue down that path.

Does that exist?
