    Dear Jonathan:

    You wrote that you “finally beat it (OCD)”. What is our mental illness then, currently?

    Dear Jonathan:

    No one can make up for lost time. People try, but it is impossible. And we all lose time, lots of time. I for one lost decades. There is sadness about lost time, lost youth, lost firsts that didn’t happen.

    Accept this sadness over lost time best you can. Consider that it is the norm, not the exception, to lose, or waste time, youth, opportunities.

    And then, consider what is available for you. What is available for you is a Beginning. It is okay to begin at 30.

    “what now?” you asked. Now live the life that is available for you.

    You wrote that you have a “good job house car”, well you have something. Now have a healthy, loving relationship in your life. Make that happen.

    Hi Jonathan,

    If you moved you would be starting over anyway even if you didn’t have some missing chapters of your youth.

    By the way, EVERYONE has missing chapters of their life. I for one, never went to summer camp for whatever reason. All my other friends did. I missed prom, for whatever reason. But other kids might have missed playing sports, doing chores, family holidays, a best friend, etc.

    You have a job, house and car. Those are physical indicators of stability. No one who meets you will pick up on your missing chapters or past mental illness. And so what if they found out? They will have found out by then that you are a good guy. And by then you will have found out that they, too, are human.

    Best,

    Inky
