Regrets and Carrie Bradshaw

Not being able to sleep, crying for no reason and being stressed about the future? If you are experiencing any of these symptoms you might be dealing with some regret and definitely over thinking those regrets. This is what I've been dealing with for over a year now. I am starting to realize that it's not worth it. If you are ruining the present day and what could be happening for you in the future because you're so stuck on what you have done in the past... You're going backwards, like me. There are some days where I literally make myself so sick and upset because I think of mistakes I've made in the past and what I could have done to prevent them, which then leads me to drink out of anger or depression where I usually end up doing something else stupid that I'll regret the next day. It's a vicious cycle and finally, I'm starting to realize it. I found a nice little quote on Pinterest the other day said by the famous Carrie Bradshaw from "Sex in the City" and she has it down pat. She is not necessarily talking about regrets... But her flaws, which I think in turn... reflects on the mistakes we make. We are all human and we all make mistakes. Especially at my age. I'm in my 20's, which is the prime age group where people make most of their mistakes, but I don't want that to be an excuse for me anymore. I definitely want to remember my past memories and my mistakes so I learn from them, but I surely do not want to dwell on them and not enjoy life because of that reason. So, I'll share this quote with you and I hope it makes you think about letting it go. You are you, and you can't change that; but you can change certain things you do in life and the people you surround yourself with to make yourself feel better and to also make others feel good when they're around you.
