I have been using this site since early 2007 and I had never made a thread on this board, but I am giving it a shot now.
Years have come and gone.
I have seen so many things happen in the internet and in real life, I don't know If it's the fact that I had an "overexposure" to drama, "happenings", or other people's lives, but I feel too old even when I am supposed to be young.
I haven't had the best decisions and I hold regret over many things, but a lot has happened in my personal life, good and bad, however I am left with the feeling that it could always been so much more.
Last year was the first I actually contemplated suicide as it had been the year where I had fucked and completely busted any chances of finishing college. I find it funny that teenager me would have never thought of this situation being possible.
In the end I decided against it and went back to live with my old folks at my home town, I am trying to keep my chin up now and even went to a psychologist, however after begin diagnosed with mild depression and some kind of late onset ADD, I was given some pills and told to fuck off.
I was okish for some months after that, but I'm currently living in my old room, every single time I clean or “rearrange” it to make me feel “comfortable” I am assaulted by nostalgia, a “bad” kind of nostalgia, this has been going the whole year, I have been trying to get a job now just to stay occupied and signed up for online college, but it doesn’t stop, I have this feeling of just wanting to go back, just seeing any object which holds some kind of sentimental value triggers a long trip in the memory lane for me.
As I said I have tried “cleaning” and rearranging” but every time it fucking keeps happening and I just can't stop, My mind wants me to go back and stay there, do everything again.
However the conscious me knows that I am 25 years of age and I just can't stop to reminisce, but even then, it just wont stop and it hurts so much.
TL;DR how to cure nostalgia?

Leave it in the past. Save up and Move Out.

Just burn your room, anon.

That's the idea, but no job yet.
I am mainly asking for advise on how to cope in the mean time.

Can't do, too attached and who knows maybe one day I will be able to look back to my stuff with an actual "good" feeling of nostalgia..

Got the exact same problem. Just a different backstory

I used to be in highschool and life was great for me. Had a gf, friends and especially one great friend. I moved countries for university. My depression started settling in, I kept relating to and missing my old life in highschool and I never really knew why. Everything I did, every breath I took smelled of the old version of me, back then, happy, alive, smiling.
Now I did realize something. Its been a year and 4 months of being in this nostalgic state. At the beginning it was unbearable. Everything i did reminded me of the old days. Now it's better but not conpletely non-existent.
I realized however that due to me enrolling into a major in uni that I have no interest in. I lost my purpose and now i'm making changes to fix that. It's feeling better. But I always wonder if this extreme nostalgia was diagnosed and it's reasons, how to cure it, etc.
