Why am I stuck in the past?

Question

I always seem to think that life was better 1 year ago, or even when I was a little kid, Im never satisfied until I realize that the year has passed away, I really miss my life back then and the way I looked. . :( HELP!

Answer 1

i have the same exact problem. i always think that one yr ago everything was better and then the next i think the same about that last yr.

i always wondered y i feel like that myself.

when i found out y we feel like that ill definetly tell u.

i think its cuz something that we love always changes until we realise how much we liked it without that thing

Answer 2

sometimes its hard to let go of the past. for example. when i was in high school, i always thought i could lose a little weight. im 5'8" and i weighed around 135. i know i know, thats not fat, but, still, i thought i could lose some. after high school, i met a guy, got pregnant, got married, had a baby then got divorced. after having my son, i SO wish i could look like i did in high school. everything was tight and toned and where it was supposed to be. now, i weigh around 150. i wish i could still have my parents. they passed away in 2003 and in 2007. but, im an adult now, and i have responsibilities of my own, and i cant keep wanting and wishing for things that will never happen. everyone has a happy time in their life that they wish they could go back to. but, lets face reality, its not going to happen. sucks, i know! you just gotta enjoy life, it goes by fast! stop worrying about the past and enjoy the now.
