Ever since childhood, I see what I want and I take it. Is this normal?
As long as you’re not stealing, hurting or mistreating others to get it, go for it.
I miss my childhood but im only 15?
okay, since ive been a teenager, ive been depressed, bullied, and had lots of health issues, my family life has all but disappeared, my parents are close to getting divorced, and my my big brother is about to finish university and move out of house, and here i am, still trying to grow up, while it seems my whole family has done that and they are moving on with their lives, even though my immediately family still loves each other very much, i dont feel the same way anymore, we fight a lot, and my parents are alot older, and me and my dad are always depressed... i wish i could go back to the times when my family was closer and younger, when we had more money... my brother is 7 years older than me (hes 22 now) and ive ALWAYS felt that during my childhood , i was also leaving his teenager years as well. i hate my life now.. im always depressed bullied, i hate school, and i dont have any friends.... i just feel so depressed about my life. i wish i could go back to the times when things were easier... people say your teen years are the best of your life. NOT for me.... i want them over , but i also want to be forever young, i want to be free and happy. when i listen to the song "forever young" by youth group, all i do is cry. what am im i going to think 15 years from now???? i never want to remember this part of my life again. im always living on the past, im never thinking abou today or tommorow, i miss when my brother would come home and watch the television each night, and i would do my homework by the fire. i miss my routine, i miss when we used to go for bike rides together, and walk our dog through the bush. i miss going on family snow trips each year. what can i do to enjoy my teen years??? and so when look back in 15 years, on my teen hood i can say "hey this part of my life was okay' i think its unfair how my brother got such a wonderful teen-hood and i didnt.
Wanting to go back to my childhood?
I'm 15. I still have moments like that. I wish I could go back to elementary school. It's normal. And your childhood is basically over the way life is these days. Work work work is all we do now. Childhood, in my opinion, is when you don't care about what happens the next day. When you don't care about anything yet. When you feel like you can do anything.
I want to redo my childhood and teen years?
Ok, growing up I wasn't extremely shy, and I had friends at school but never really really close friends. I never spent time with them outside of school, and I had no hobbies or extracurricular activities. All I did was go to school and was a couch potato basically all through my childhood and HS. I feel like I didn't experience anything. I didn't go to a public school..I went to a small private school. I feel like I missed out on pop-culture, like talking about celebrity heart-throbs, or listening to popular music. I wish I had gotten into some kind of activity, whether it was sports, or arts, or academic, or musical, or ANYTHING that could have made me feel like I was a part of something. I wish I tried to become close with my friends, had gone to birthday parties, had sleepovers, or had just tried to have a life Now I feel like I have this huge void, and I have this huge attachment to the 90s. (I was born in '88). It's almost like I can't grow up. I still pretty much act like I'm about 16 and kind of have a grunge style, and I think it's because I want to live through the 90s the 'right way'. (Which sort of doesn't make sense b/c I was about 6 in the grunge era), but for some reason I really relate to that time. I know that I can't go back, and that the time has passed, but I still wish so desperately that I could redo growing up. Does any one else feel this way? What can I do? How can I move on?? I know I can't 'rewind', but is there any way I could get over this feeling like I wasted 20 years of my life?
I want to redo my childhood and teen years so bad?

I'm 23...Dont know why I just want to go back in my childhood..i always keep thinking that I have wasted a precious life..i want to start again..i remain silent whole day at home...sometimes I feel like I have to quit..how to deal with this situation?
I'm 54 and I've been struggling with this for years. My childhood was great. I had a stable, safe, loving family. I want to feel that again, but I want it on my terms. If I went back, I wouldn't have my son, who is the most important person in my life. Sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy because I don't want the responsibilities and stress of life. I want to crawl on my daddy's lap and feel his strong arms around me. I'm trying to learn to focus on the blessings in my life, right here in the present. I find that when I can be thankful for what I have in the present instead of comparing it to my past, I can enjoy life more. I know I'm blessed to have wonderful memories of childhood (it sounds like you do too). Too many people had a bad childhood and have to fight against dwelling on hurtful memories. I feel a bit selfish when I think of that. Have I managed to get over my nostalgic desire to return to childhood? No, not completely, but I'm making strides. Your feelings are normal and just proves that you're a sensitive person. That's a wonderful quality. I pray that you can learn to love yourself and enjoy yourself in every present momen. Remember what you are living now will soon be memories too. How wonderful it will be for “this moment in time” to be added to your good memories of that past.
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up - and how does it compare to your current career?
I wanted to become a doctor with specialisation in ENT when I was in plus two. I had deep interest in biology. Once, when I was in 9th standard, biology teacher asked me that what I want to become, replied that becoming a doctor is passion. But, somehow, I didn't do well in board exam of biology. After seeing board results, was devatasted and did not eat properly for a week then. Then, decided to do some other arts course. But, peer pressure forced me to go engineering. Applied. Got admitted in CEG. Decided to join software company. But, got placed in PSU.In PSU, was inclined to quality department. But, got Marketing department.I didn't choose my career. It chose me. Let's see how far it takes me.Now I left to it. Leading happy life.
What do flashbacks mean from my childhood?
I am 19yrs old. I still live with my parents and are trying to get on my feet and out asap, but with a car payment and a low income job it's hard. This pass week I got really mad and could not even say a word to my mom. Before I got mad I started having flashbacks of my childhood of my dad the way that he treated me. He did kind of abuse me and I did call CPS, he was always right and I was always wrong. Everything I did was wrong, he would scream in my face and I would have to take it. He would lock me out side when I i started crying and always told me to shut up. Now that I am having these flashbacks, I feel that I am going to lash out and tell my parents off. That it's your fault the way that I am. I have dreams for the past week about my child hood. They always want me to be home at a certain time, but they don't understand that I need sometime to myself. My brother is 20 and they don't say anything. My mom is always telling me that I don't pay the mortage around here but I lend her money and it takes her forever to pay it back. I lend her a 1000.00 that back up all my bills that went on my credit cards, that was 3 months ago and she still owes me 450.00. What does this mean? The flashbacks, the anger that I have inside? What should I do? Is this a serious problem that I need help?
