Summary
Moments after Steve managed to keep the kids alive in the tunnels, he was dosed by the Upside Down itself and given dangerous powers he barely had control over. What could have been the worst thing to happen to him turned out to be the best. He gained new friends, a new family, and control over his powers. All before he graduated.
Then the summer of 1985 happened. The Russians happened.
Steve's been different since those gates opened. He doesn't know why, but he's terrified something dark, a part of the lingering gift of the Upside Down, is growing inside him. He doesn't know what it means, and he's terrified to find out.

What could have been changed by Max having someone else to talk to after losing everything?

Just Because You've Done It Before Doesn't Mean You'll Do It Better by foresthearts

Summary
In 1986, Vecna wins, turning Hawkins into a dystopian nightmare. Six months later, Steve―a hardened alpha―is sent by some primordial being back to the past. October 1983, exactly: before Will went missing, before Barb was killed, before Nancy broke up with him…before he even presented as an alpha.
At first he’s thrilled at this new chance to change the future, but soon he realizes that it's a lot tougher than expected. Altering the past has unexpected consequences, and Steve, unfortunately, is an idiot. Before he can stop it, things seem to be careening out of control.
In the middle of all of this, one question keeps nagging at him: why is Eddie Munson acting so weird?
