My mind wanders back to being under 5, my dad had major depression the first 14 years of my life. I could feel what he was feeling ,i would cuddle up to him and try to make him feel better. I often sensed his anger and frustration, i held his hand we needed each other
I think back a lot but feels like its not good for me. Ive nothing else to think about
If there are good memories there it can be nice to revisit.
There are memories of some people I’m not friends with anymore which is kind of weird to think about. But there’s also good memories with people I’m still friends with.
I understand @Mr_Hope so its ok to think about memories
You are an empath @Ducky but sometimes as an empath you forget about your needs. Give yourself permission to pay attention to your own mental well being, nourish and uplift your warm and kind spirit so you can take care of others.
I have put my painful past behind me and that keeps me from getting depressed.
Thanks for recognising that about me yes im an empath. Ive been having accurate premonitions occasionally from age 5 which is strange but true
