When the Furniture Moves: Chronophobia, Regret, and Depression

I’ve never been able to cope with the passing of time, and over the years this single fact has got me into so much trouble I can barely even describe it. When I make a decision or don’t follow my heart, or even occasionally when I feel I’ve made the RIGHT decision, I still absolutely yearn to go back and do things differently. It’s like a sort of emotional heartbreak, and without any exaggeration, I find it practically impossible to cope with. For me, chronophobia (or the fear of time) is very real.
