There's an old saying. You've probably heard it.
"Learn from your mistakes." Another that would
apply here: "The past is a good witness."
If you hate anything or anyone--especially your-
self, the one with whom you live every day of
your life, and, indeed, have no choice but to do
so--then you're only making what may seem bad
much worse.
If you want to start over, because you lack any
sense of contentment, there's nothing wrong with
that. In fact, that's a first step in the right direction.
(Now it's time to follow up on that step.)
My advice: learn the philosophy of Buddhism. (I
said "philosophy" because that's what it is; it is
not a "religion"; although that's a very common
misconception.) And, too, learn the technique that
goes hand-in-hand with it: meditation.
Also, please ponder this: it is also a very popular
misconception that our discontentment with life's
problems arise from the problems themselves.
That's a falsehood. It is our reactions to any of the
various problems that arise that is the source of
our anger, bitterness, even hatred.
One of the premises of Buddhism is that we
should not think of any thought as a problem or
otherwise; rather, the key is to just look at it as
"thought"; nothing more, nothing less.
In the words of my psychologist, Jeffrey Simon
Friedman, Ph.D.: "Please be well."

When I was younger and things weren't going my way, yes i did wish i could have started my life over. I went through the poor me syndrome. Now I am happy with who I am and where my life is heading. I realise I can make the changes and I am in control of my own life and decisions.
I plan on only making the rest of my life better for myself and others.

sometimes it like that but you know it's not possible for you to start over. Even if it's possible, no one is perfect you might as well make the same mistake or more mistakes. why not face what is coming and try not to fall into the same pit you've taken yourself out. Don't let your pass hunt and affect your present life and future. There is a good reason for you to ****** up in the past.

You can't erase your past, but you can learn from it and grow into what you want to be. Set a vision, than make small, attainable goals that you can reach.

Yeah, all the time really, I'm at probably the most crossroad(ed) place in my life right now and sometimes I don't know where to end or begin, or what.
