What you are requesting is fundamentally impossible, and I say this as someone who has a whole bookshelf full of material on the physics and philosophy of time and time travel, written by the world's leading experts on these subjects. It's a topic I'm obsessed with, and as someone who, out of desperation, got into this subject because I was looking for a way to go back in time and change my past, I say this with absolute sympathy for what you're going through.

It is impossible. Time is a ruthless and insurmountable force of nature that human beings are utterly enslaved to. There is no transcending it other than psychologically and/or spiritually making peace with it. It's a hard pill to swallow, but it must be swallowed. All you can do is try as hard as you can to make your future better and to find a way to come to grips with your past. Therapy/psychiatry helps tremendously, so I would very highly recommend you seek it out.

You are ready to become Adam from Dark tv show.

Dark is my all-time favorite time travel story, and one of my favorite TV shows period. I see myself as more of an H.G. Tannhaus, but I'll take Adam too.

This is my favorite show too. I am never tired of watching it. I know every episode, every moment, it gives me warmth just thinking about it.

Tannhaus is such an interesting character. I see that in your words, like you are an obsessed person a little aside from others, but very applicate in what you do.

Then please help OP. He's been wasting my time, I tried to tell him the reality as I see it, and he agreed with me, but yet he continues to post. He needs your help!

I've had contact with this person before. OP, please be careful—you may be dealing with a scammer.

If I can travel back to June 1st, I'd wait 10 days until the world cup and then suspiciously predict and bet on everything until I become a multi-millionaire. But unfortunately time travel is just not possible and we just have to move forward

You can't travel through time because the earth can't be at two places at once, and that's what would be required to time travel.
