As the title states, I create strong negative associations with places and then it just ruins it for me. I feel like this is part of black or white thinking. I moved and haven't had the best experience so now I hate this place. I didn't have a good high school experience so I don't want to go back to my hometown. I feel the need to go somewhere with no ties or connections, but of course that has it's own issues. I hate that I am so emotional and let things bother me so much. Logically, I know it's ridiculous to let my interpersonal relationships impact how I feel about living in a certain place but I guess I just feel like it's constant reminders. I have reduced black or white thinking but I guess this is one area I need to practice it.
