I had 3 older brothers who sold drugs who made me do bad things to people that I didn't want to.
I know it was stupid now, and I've left them behind. I still have trouble sleeping though and I just want it to all go away.

Try to make it into a positive...maybe going thru this made you the person you are today. We can't totally forget things we have done...they are learning experiences. If it keeps you up at night, maybe you should seek counseling.

I've done a lot of effed up things in my life. I'm 27 now.....and to this day, I wouldn't say I regret any of it. I wouldn't do it over if I could.....and do you know why?
Because .....it made me into the person I am. All experiences you have in your life, good and bad, build your character and the person you are....
And I have some bad things in my personality because of it, sure. But.....I am a really crass, silly person. All my friends tell me I'm the funniest girl they know. I can crack lines about nearly anything.....
Those experiences shaped YOU.
As much as you might want to, you can't erase those things from your memory or "forget" about them......
I think THE BEST you can do..... is first, forgive yourself. And second, think about those experiences and what you learned from them and think of what you can do to make the changes in your personality positive ones..... you know what I mean??
Best of luck to you. <3

You know i've always learn that we must never live in the past! What's done cannot be undone,but you have the means to get rid of your bad souvenirs! You must use your will power to be able to move forward instead of moving backwards! With my experience I know that to tell someone to forget is quite difficult,but you must try to do it! I too have some prob which I can't deal with even now.but I try to coz it's now and I can't lose time thinking of the past coz time does not wait...Have faith and believe in yourself...u are a new being now...

You learn the hard way. But you learn your lesson. It may never go away, but that can help you to become a better person. I know you can't take anything back, but you can volunteer your time to help young people that may be in the same situation. And a lot more. I'm sure you will feel better.

Again I'd like to reiterate the joys of marijuana usage.
I can't remember what I had for dinner. And I like it like that.
If worse comes to worse, light a candle for your memories, and blow it out... I've done that. The symbolic nature of it actually helps, but you've gotta set the mood right for it.

Learn from it, life doesnt throw anything in your path just for nothing, learn to forgive yourself( this you can only do if you know what you did was wrong) and believe you deserve to be forgiven. See a therapist, they can help you sort out why you cant get over it, and remember that we all make mistakes.

life is a learning experience and one hopes as one gets older and more mature that one changes for the better.....it sounds to me that you have changed and regret your actions...forgive your self and if you know who you have hurt and know how to contact them, one could reach out to them and tell them you are sorry.....if not, move on and treat the people in your life like you want to be treated. try to be strong and know that you are a good person...............

You can't forget those things, all you can do is move forward and be a good person from here on out.

It never goes away............try to do the opposite..........try to be good to others the much you were bad to them
It is a matter of coping
History can't be wipped off........learn from the experience.
