*Ososan: all my hs friends pretended like I didn't exist. Dad was disabled/unemployed and even more mentally abusive. Community College stress. This was a big part of my life/ I made a lot of important friends but I was coping so hard and wishing I'd die every time I slept. 16-20
* Mob psycho:
This one is a mix of mainly good but pretty significantly bad too. Was in college in a different city, scared and alone bc I was away from family. Cried a lot between classes between loneliness and stress. This show helped me stay above water and distracted me
*southpark: Dad started becoming a mentally abusive alcoholic. Was losing my old friends from gradeschool since I moved to a different part of the city. Puberty. 13
*homestuck: High-school time. Family foreclosed on house and i was living with grandma again. Came out that summer and was shoved back into the closet and told I felt that way bc I was ugly and possessed. Depression/anxiety got really bad around this time. SH. 14-16
Bad nostalgia
*Death Note: made some bad friends in middle school who honestly made me a bad person. I was a bully and not proud looking back. Grandpa died. Dad started drinking heavily. 12 yo
* code lyoko: got me into anime. I legit remember watching this series on og YouTube In part 1 (2/5) type videos. Was my first summer alone. Family was finally financially stable enough to move into our own house. Was before grandpa died and dad became a drunk asshole 11-12 yo
Kinda big heavy vent/dump. But i can't stop thinking about it
realizing there's two different kind of nostalgia that really hits me hard.
Good nostalgia before my family life got shitty
Bad nostalgia aka nostalgia from things that helped me through--or I relate to--bad times
Good (in order from best)
*SpongeBob: this is when I was probably my happiest so like...4-10yo. This is how my best friend and I became bffs, birthday themes, dancing to the music cds. I'd go back to these days in a heartbeat
