How do I deal with this nostalgia problem? It seems like it's gotten more intense this month.

Whenever I think of something nostalgic, it seems like I almost transition back to that time. Maybe like I'm dissociating.

I have all these "most" nostalgic things. Like the most nostalgic song is Walking On Broken glass. I heard that song the other day and I like transitioned back to summer of 5th grade. I could even feel the sun on my face. The room I was in was freezing. and I think the most nostalgic commercial is that old Mazda "zoom,zoom, zoom" one. I watched it on YouTube a couple of months ago and I like transitioned back to 2003-2005.

I have dreams of stores coming back. I don't get where this is coming from. I don't mind being an adult. I like working. When I was a kid I had no money. But now I have money to buy the things I couldn't have when I was a kid.

I'm sitting here using my phone and a tablet at the same time, with an empty plate of lobster and shrimp on the table next to me. I feel like I'm living my childhood dreams. So I just don't understand this nostalgia problem.

I try to not be obvious about it. If my mom has caught on she doesn't say anything. Its not something I'm proud of. So I try to keep it to myself.

What does this mean?
