>>21416380Those bad mindsets and unpleasant thoughts aren't something that will ever go away for anyone, it takes time to time to develop the skills to recognize them and even more time to develop the ability to compartmentalize them and not allow yourself to be taken out of your base sense of normality. Reflecting on the past and acknowledging who are you are now is not the same person as you where as a child/teen is important as well, with the caveat being you can't allow yourself to spiral into melancholy nostalgia. Some people might need medication, some people might need to lift, and some people find god or meditate.
