What do you do when you want a fresh new start in life? Disappointed with the past and i just want to start over
Fresh start = Move to a new city, though with social media, your past life can follow you to some extent.

I just got a new apartment this summer so moving a new town right now is not an option, although i have been thinking maybe when my lease is up

Take Xanax. Makes me forget my woes and start over psychologically.

EDIT: Not routinely/daily. Just when you’re feeling particularly down.

That's what I do.
Lol i think everyone feels this way on sundays :p
Every stage of my life has been a fresh start. A stage lasts for like not more than 2 years(that's the max) each time probably. I can COMPLETELY shut down the past... things I don't wanna carry around n start afresh every time. Definitely refreshing. I change the course, change places(not countries or cities necessarily...just houses if n when I feel like it), change numbers, change people I surround myself with... basically anything /everything n everyone which/whom I think is affecting me in a negative way or just when I feel drained or tired of stuff in general. It's like starting over every time n I kinda like it that way. Even if the past creeps in at some point during this time, it wouldn't affect me. Coz I'm also mentally done with all of that...not just by staying physically away from such things for a lil while ...though that helps. I think your mind plays a bigger role here.

Yeah i do think my mind plays a big role here. Ive just been wanting to go to a new town and start new and get away from people ive known. Its not that easy though :/
It's all in your mindset. Moving to a new planet won't mean squat if you don't tweak your approach to life.

I thought having a new name would give me that fresh start.......it didn't. Now I'm Jelle again, but life circumstances changed and I grabbed the opportunity with both hands to make the changes that needed making.

Moving to a new place on the other side of the city is a good start, new surroundings but you're still in the same city so nothing too drastic. My new place is surrounded by green and flowers, and the scent that comes into it 24/7 is heavenly. My boy tends to wake up at like 5am just to catch a whiff of that.

True change is about letting go of your old nasty habits and picking up new good ones. Otherwise you're bringing the same old crap into your new home. True change is internal, not external.

Aw I know it's not easy at all n I totally feel ya. But for now maybe, you can just change the area you live in or something? Also find a way you won't get in touch with these people by any means till you find another way. Not being on social media,changing numbers n cutting off ties with anyone or anything remotely related to them helped me.

I wish I could do that, I feel I drag shit from ten past lives. I move on so easily I suspect is a half assed recover. Do you do something specific to get rid of the baggage?

Get rid of your old wardrobe. I know sounds weird, but if you start wearing completely new clothes, you’ll feel a bit new.
Sure, let's go for the expensive option.

😂😂@ten past lives

N do I do something specific? Yes...selective memory lol. Can be hard initially. But once you master that, it'd be awesome. It's real n It's like a super power no kidding. You'll be like one of these happy lil beings without almost any baggage. It can help people in more than a few ways tbh.

Make new friends, take on new hobbies, a new job, new challenges, personal growth. It doesn't necessarily need to be location but can be. I've been there a few times.

This.
Moving to a new location may not necessarily help if your issues are internal. Picking up new hobbies and making good (or even better) friends is always positive strategy. Change comes from within first. Do things that make you happy and will help make you feel good. Be sure to delete any toxic factors from your life as well.
