Well, apologize, whether you like it or not. Sometimes you should keep your internal monologue exactly that: internal. More than once I've said things I meant that had to be taken back. It's not pleasant, but things get better.
Remember, when you're on the bottom you can only go up from there.

We all make mistakes at some point in our lives...and at times it's hard to cope with it. But in the end, we learn from all those mistakes and take advantage of the knowledge we gained for a better use in the future.
Apologizing is a first step to take. Be honest, no denials. Don't say that your life isn't getting any better! It's definitely gonna go for the better~ stay strong and true to yourself.

Hope this helped you a little! =3

Wrong. Your life can get WAY better. It's not about how you got down, it's how you build yourself back up. Build yourself up stronger. Apologize to the people you said it to. DOn't deny, don't lie. Say what you said and come clean. It might take somepeople some time to be able to forgive you, but you'll be a better person because of it.

Good luck, hope i helped

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said "Regrets are wasted unless you can correct the wrong or alleviate the pain."

I wish you had been a little more specific in your question, but thats alright.

What you can do since you realize you said things you didn't mean, you need to own up to it. It's like when your watching people make mistakes and they constantly blame it on other people, don't do that because that does make it worse.

Notice that you said some things, and apologize, do whatever it takes to make it right. Sometimes apologies aren't enough, if this is the case, actions speak louder than words, you have to show that you are truely sorry.

And yes your life will get better, but you have to take the initiative and make things better.

My guess, start off with an apology, it might go a long way. And you may not be able to take back what you said, but you absolutely can correct it from ever happening again, how? Learn from your mistake(s)

Best of luck! :)

My policy: No regrets. Just lessons learned :]

I'm sure I've managed to vomit up some words on people, but nothing I can actually think of right now. Heheh, sorry...not the greatest advice..

but those little words of encouragement have helped me through half of highschool and IM STILL ALIVE :DD

I know the feeling. I've said and done things which I will always regret.

I give you an example. When I first came to my new school (this is like 3 years ago), I was quiet and closed up to others and wouldn't really socialize and I would do things which would make my peers think of me as some kind of freak and because of that, I became even more of a recluse and wouldn't really talk and I never knew my friends as much as I did and I thought "well, my life here isn't going to get any better". But a year ago, I came out of my shell and began to talk to them and socialized with them a hell of a lot more than what I used to, due to a big epiphany which I had and which I won't go into here. And now, I deeply regret not knowing them better than I do know and how I wasted those years keeping to myself, and with our time here ending with each day, I feel so upset and wish that somehow, I could turn back time and start all over again and behave differently and maybe, everything would've turned out differently.

What I learned from this experience, is that we do make mistakes in life, but when presented with the same/similar situation, we can get another shot with a whole lot of different people and avoid the mistakes which we made in the past. And not to get stuck on what we did in the past, and to make most of the time which is left with the people who're around you.

What you said, whatever it was, is now a thing of the past, but there are many more opportunities to avoid saying those things again in any other situations.

In other words, don't worry about what you said, you can't change it now. Now take most of the opportunities to make up for it.

I hope this helped,
triquetra

Alin75 answered Monday September 29 2008, 4:43 pm:
It would really help to know what you said. However, in almost all cases you just have to remember that life will get better. The short version of the advice is:

- Realise that we all make mistakes and learn from them. Dont let it happen again. Everyone can screw up once, but fools repeat their mistakes.

- Apologise or explain if you hurt/ offended/ embarrassed someone and let them know how you feel. Even if you cant take things back, and even if your apology or explanation will not be enough, it is all you can do. It is also the first step towards regaining someones trust (I am going on a limb here with what happened since, again, I am not sure exactly what went down).

- Remember that we all have things that we regret. Its part of life. In most cases things seem much worse in the moment than after some time has passed. Learn from it, and become a better person.

Good luck.
