I would give myself a hug and tell myself it’ll all be ok.
Sounds like you went through some difficult times. Really glad things worked out ok for you
Great approach. Check out ifs
Ifs?
I would do that with a chainsaw
I’d push myself into a meat grinder
Kill him since I already know it doesn’t get much better
Is that suicide, murder or murder suicide?
Murdicide?
Imagine the disappointment if you then don’t stop existing. You still did a good deed, nobody can take that away from you.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. This really hits home.
No, it would hit you
Tell my young self that it isn’t a phase and that he should start the therapy to become she immediately!
I would tell my younger self to go to a psychiatrist and get some antidepressants about 2 years earlier than last time.
When you realize that’s why your parents were like that

It’s amazing how two otherwise generally intelligent well meaning loving parents can completely miss the fucking point so goddamn hard…
Obviously not universal, but generally parental strictness/harshness/unfairness is them trying to spare their children undue suffering from mistakes similar to those the parents themselves made in their youth.

I’d tell my younger self “you are gay” in the voice of that Ugandan TV host

I’d use a gun tbh. Gotta make sure.
