Im single and 17 and I get myself really down whenever im alone because i think of past things too much, like fun times i have had with friends, and crushes i know are never going to happen. I try to keep myself busy all the time but good times get me upset! How can i make myself focus on the future and all i have ahead instead of past times that might never happen again? Is this just another normal teenage thing?

Hi Hunny

It can be a teenage thing, You no thinking back to what times used to be like, Times are changing all the time friends come and go as you grow. You can be in a crowd of mates for years and then you grow and go your seperate ways things change and you look back on those times with happiness or sometimes sadness, Its all part of learning and growing up hunny. Sometimes we wish we were back doing those things when we think of the great times we had but we move on and have other great times meet new people and learn new things. I went to my daughters school for parents evening the other night and there were all my old friends married and divorced with there children and it took me back we talked about how our lives were back when we were younger and how we try not to let our kids do the same..LOL!!!!!But alot of us havent changed the personalitys are still there and its strange to bump into ex b/fs with there children trying to be all resposable and puffing away...Its growing up hunny and you will go on to have more good times you will look back on.. They may never happen again but the memorys are with you forever no one can take that away hunny...TAKE CARE WITH LOTS OF LOVE N HUGS MANDY XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
