We've reached out to Ian Wright, the admin of 'I love Nostalgia' and here's what he had to say about his love for the golden eras: "I’d love to go back to the 80s because it was such a simpler more fun time. Plus, I was ages 8-18 which are very impressionable years! There was more freedom to do and say what you wanted. We were free to do and think many things without today’s pressures."

He also mentioned a few memorable events that reminds him most of the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s. For example, In the 1960s, the world was swaying to The Beatles' tunes, and mini-skirts were all the rage. Transitioning into the '70s, warm tones of brown and yellow painted the era. Evel Knievel's toy motorcycles raced into our hearts, while flares and big collars defined fashion. The 1980s brought the mind-bending Rubik's Cube, along with vibrant neon fashion. Ghetto blasters boomed, and the Commodore 64 sparked the digital age. The 1990s saw the rise of Tamagotchis, while homes resonated with the melodies of elegant HiFi music systems. Chatrooms on clunky PCs marked the Internet's early days. As the 2000s dawned, iPods revolutionized music, and MP3 sharing took flight. Meanwhile, mobile phones transformed into sleek and indispensable companions.

The members of the account surely love a nostalgic throwback into the golden eras of the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, and '00s. Here's why: nostalgia is a sentimental longing for the past, often linked to positive memories. It brings comfort during tough times. However, it can also create bittersweet feelings, making us yearn for better days.

Nostalgia was first mentioned in 1688 by Swiss physician Johannes Hofer. Initially, it was believed to be a neurological illness. According to psychologist and author Arlin Cuncic, "It was not until the 19th century that nostalgia began to be seen as a positive sentiment, rather than a pathological condition. Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, for example, saw nostalgia as a way of reconnecting with our past and understanding our present. For Jung, nostalgia was a way to access the "collective unconscious"—the shared history and experiences that we all have as human beings."

Nostalgia comes in three categories: personal, social, and cultural. Personal reminiscences relate to memories of specific people or events in one's life. Social recollections are tied to memories of feeling more connected to others, while cultural remembrances involve memories of feeling more connected to one's culture.

Nostalgia offers a range of benefits, including boosting one's mood and increasing self-esteem. Studies have shown that it can provide a sense of social support and aid in coping with challenging life transitions like divorce, retirement, and loss. Cuncic thinks that, "Nostalgia can also have positive effects on physical health. For example, nostalgia has been shown to boost immune function and reduce stress levels. Nostalgia can also help to increase life satisfaction and reduce anxiety."

However, nostalgia can also have negative effects. For instance, it might lead to a sense of loneliness and isolation, cause people to excessively dwell on the past, and become dissatisfied with the present, making them less likely to take action in their current circumstances. The good thing is that there are a few tactics on how to avoid negative nostalgia. For example, you can try focusing on the present and doing things that make you happy. Spend time with loved ones and talk about positive memories. If needed, seek support from a therapist and be mindful of dwelling too much on the past.
