Forgetting a difficult past can be a complex and individualized process, but here are a few strategies that can help you cope:

1.Accept your emotions: Give yourself permission to feel and recognize your emotions about the difficult past. Don't try to suppress or ignore these feelings, as this can delay the process of accepting them.

2.Seek support: Talk to trusted friends, family members, or professionals such as psychologists or therapists. Talking about your emotions and experiences can help you recognize them, as well as get valuable advice and support.

3.Practice self-care: Take time to care for yourself and your physical and emotional well-being. Engage in exercise, meditation, deep breathing or other relaxation techniques that you enjoy. This will help you release tension and focus on the present moment.

4.Gradually let go of the past: Try setting boundaries for yourself so that you don't get attached to past events. This may include letting go of intrusive thoughts or practicing a space and time dedicated only to the present.

5.Create new positive memories: Take a trip, meet new people, take up a new hobby or study. Creating new positive memories can help shift the focus from the past to the future.

6.Forgive yourself and others: Forgiveness is an important step in the process of letting go of the past. Try to forgive yourself for mistakes made and accept that the past cannot be changed. Also consider forgiving others to let go of grudges and resentments.

7.Live in the present: Focus on the present moment and strive to create a happy and meaningful present. Practice mindfulness, enjoy the simple pleasures of life and strive for growth and development.

Remember that the process of forgetting the difficult past takes time and patience. Be kind to yourself and give yourself time to heal and move forward.
