I must be severely deluded

Unusual Beliefs
1

I must be severely deluded to miss where I grew up. I was never born there, and my nationality is not from there. But why the ■■■■ do I miss it? Nothing ever good happened in both countries anyway so me thinking about the places I hung out with friends and did stuff must be a huge delusion on my end.

I was never going to immigrate, just stay with parents, and neither countries want me anyway. Why do I think that places actually want me and why do I ■■■■■■■ miss it although I can never return there? I have no friends anyway.

I just hope I can get rid of this delusion somehow. I’m not from there.

I find myself wanting things in my past that really weren’t that great at the time. Maybe it is some kind of survival mechanism, so that if, God forbid, I did end up in one of those places it wouldn’t be totally horrible.

Maybe you can go back one day on vacation.

It’s hard for disabled people to migrate because they are a burden to the healthcare system.

I just consider myself lucky that there is free movement in the EU, so there are several countries I could migrate to within Europe including my favorite.

I hope things work out for you and that you start feeling better more frequently.

I don’t want to go back yet I miss it.

I don’t maintain contact with most of the people I know from there.

I deluded myself into thinking that I was one of them. I was never one of them, but just a burden on their system.

Being a third culture kid is painful.

hmm i wonder if it is a delusion. Like they say “the grass is always greener on the other side”.

I wasn’t born there. I grew up there from age 12- 22.

The thing is my cultural identity is largely from where I grew up because I was a kid in elementary school where I was born and bullied most of the time.

I was never wanted by anyone there because I got cut off from the community there after moving here. I can never go back because I’m disabled now. I suspect no one back there wants me.

I wasn’t criticizing you. I’m just simply venting- sorry if that came as offputting. I’ll delete the response.
