Answer:
I write letters to myself frequently. Sometimes to my past self. Sometimes to my future self. Sometimes to my present self. Sometimes I even append the same letter several times throughout the year, as if I have a pen pal with future me and past me. It’s the most bizarre thing, but I do it. Frequently too.
These letters are important. They allow me to see things clearly. I delve better insight into my emotional patterns. My motivations. My struggles. Anything really. They allow me to talk to my past self. Comfort painful memories and ease worries. I can write freely without a filter. I can capture ideas that are pure to myself without worrying about being judged. After all. I’m writing these letters to myself. No one else is going to see it.
Sometimes I say things like:
Dear future Chris, I write you today letting you know that you’re going to be okay. Whatever hell or high water is at your door today, you are going to be just fine. We have been to hell back and before and managed to get through it. We will do it again if needed. I pray it doesn’t come to it but I know that life is not fair and it is going to tear into you once more. I feel it in the air future Chris. I feel this bitter storm of grief and sorrow knocking on your door and I hope you’re ready for it. When it hits, it is going to be stronger than anything you have ever encountered. Just remember you’re going to be okay. You’re going to be just fine. You will get through this. Come hell and high water you will survive. I believe in you and I believe that you can survive.
Usually, I say things like this before a stressful event or right before I am about to experience a depressive episode. These letters give me hope in the present. They allow me to comfort myself at my darkest moments and be the cheerleader I so desperately need. It’s also extremely comforting to read these words several days or weeks or months later when I need hope. Reading these words when I am in a dark moment really helps soothe whatever mental health issue I was dealing with.
Other times my letters are shorter. Much more concise and simply provide friendly advice:
Chris.
Remember to not let your heart get consumed by hate, it is the only part of you that still feels joy.
Remember to never act on insecurity, or fear. Your actions are never of the right state of mind and they almost always blow up in your face.
L. used to tell you quiet frequently that you must accept what you cannot change and change what you cannot accept. There’s wisdom in this quote
This advice is both bleak and helpful, even two years after writing ( and I still have no idea what the first point was all about).
In some rare cases, I get a glimpse of myself when I am experiencing darkness. Freeform writing to myself is extremely useful for understanding baggage from my past, and allows me to better prepare myself for it in the future:
Dear future Chris,
