Hello everyone - I seem to struggle a lot with nostalgia since my childhood days. I have had very modest and lonely childhood with very very few friends and if there was any nice experience with an event - that would remain forever stuck in my memory. There was a time when I used to cry and talk to the walls in our house when we shifted our living space from ground floor to 1st.
I know we all have a feeling for down memory lane (the song 🎵 Yesterday once more by Carpenters), especially in my culture the most famous poets have written their most famous masterpieces on the subject of Nostalgia and for me I've always kept my past memories in the most precious vault in my heart (storing time, date, events in dairies)
Currently I think my biggest challenge in moving on from my marital separation is Nostalgia, I dont know how to get over this phase of constantly ruminating about my past memories and all the insignificant episodes I shared with my spouse. She has moved on with her life but I cant, I keep going through different stages of grief and cannot even think of starting anything new. Since I joined LAA around February this year I seem to have some awareness of what is a healthy relationship and what isnt. I know it sounds crazy -the past its gone, time moves forward I cant relive those moments in the past anymore.I think this is all but a fantasy my brain is playing and Im powerless.
Can anyone share if you relate with difficulty detaching from past memories and what actually works for you to move on?
I know there many great resources on this topic but would really love to hear from others any practical tips.
Thank you 🙏
