Couldn't I go back in time and just tweak this one little thing?

This was a response to a post by Gina at Slappy in the Face.

The hardest part of the not dwelling on what might have been is the thought that if I had just been properly diagnosed earlier I could have become a little more stable emotionally and started working towards being someone I could respect even if that someone could never be considered "normal." Hell, normal's overrated anyhow. I just feel like I've wasted so much time, and sometimes that really hurts.
