Why do I always dwell on the same issue for so long? Why can't I let it go?

Maybe at first you did not realize what the dwelling was for. Identifying the issue and releasing yourself from the same issue is the first step. Seeing the problem is the other half. Doing something about it.. Take real action. They simply let go! Easier said than done but time heals all wounds.

If you still find yourself dwelling on an issue even though it has been already solved, it might be simply that your mind got used to the old pattern of thinking and can't let it go because then it would be empty. Try writing affirmations to promote new thinking patterns, it might help.

You can dwell on the same issue for a very long time and you aren’t able to let the affect leave you because of the behavior that person chosed to do therefore you are left stuck.

I totally understand what you mean. it happens to every one of us. The fear of change and unknown seems to play a great part in that. We're stuck in our comfort zone

This might be due to the issue might be too sensitive. The issue might be deep in the subconscious mind disturbing the mind all the time. One cannot let it go because it might have huge impact on life and thinking about it hurt you all the time leading to think about it again and again.
The issue might have disturbed the life and not able to forget it and about it consequences we keep on thinking about it and due to fear also the issue is not being able to forget.

Sometimes it’s hard for us to let go on things that we think about constantly or things we feel that are extremely important

It's hard to answer without knowing what the issue is.
Is it an issue that you feel has yet to be resolved and must be resolved? If so, then you have to ask yourself, why does this issue have to be resolved, really? Will it make you happier? Will it make the world a better place? Is it worth the trouble? If you decide this issue is worth pursuing rather than dismissing as a distraction, then you have to ask yourself, what are the steps I can take to reach the resolution? And this is not something that is so easily done, so good luck to you.
On the other hand, sometimes I dwell on things that I regret in the past. The best thing I can say for this is to redirect you to the practice of meditation, which is essentially the art of letting things go.

Don't worry, it's normal to feel this way because sometimes there are things that matter for us so it's difficult to let it but you survived 100 % of your bad days so I'm sure you can do it because you're strong and powerful and you're doing your best. I'm proud of you and surely there are other other people who are. The fact that you searched help is a great sign just by itself so I'm absolutely certain you can get through this. Anyway, time heals everything so just take your time and don't force yourself, don't worry, everything's going to be okay

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
