I would give myself a hug and tell myself it'll all be ok.

Great approach. Check out ifs

Internal Family System. A therapeutic approach based on system theory approaches child-like inner parts and gives them the affection and love they needed (and still need) when those parts formed.

I think they are talking about internal family systems. It's a type of therapy.

Sounds like you went through some difficult times. Really glad things worked out ok for you

I hope you're good, man.

I think I'd be the opposite. I'd be like, "It still sucks, and the loneliness hits harder than ever, fella. But when you're 24, you'll get something that'll change your life."

Just to leave this oit there for the concerned; I'm fine.

I am, but it's a day-by-day affair. I recently found out I have bipolar along with anxiety, but even so, I came out 4 years ago and my life has vastly improved.

Hey, it's better than it always being shit. I'm sorry about the bipolar though. However, hopefully, it's been found out. You can get help more suited for that.

The anxiety is.hinestly such a bitch. And I'm so glad coming out has helped. I wish you all the best.
