Nostalgia trouble

[Paddy™]

I experience this too, and I'm 29. I've experienced it throughout my life, and it hadn't occurred to me that it might be a problem I should get help with...but it's definitely something I wish I didn't experience.

Do you have any other issues? Maybe it's co-morbid with something like social anxiety? You mentioned feeling depressed when the nostalgia hits; do you get depressed at any other times?

This is pretty interesting to me, especially because you explained the experience really, really well, which is something that had held me back from talking about it before. It's difficult to put into words.

I definitely think you should see a counsellor, and please pass on any info you get! haha
