How to not dwell on the past
Express your hurt.
There are many sources of pain in life. You may have made a mistake, regret a decision, failed to take an opportunity, hurt someone, or were hurt by someone.
Instead of reliving your past over and over in your head, get it out. Express yourself by writing in a journal, talking to a trusted friend or family member, or talking to a professional counselor.
