Is nostalgia depressing?

I hate nostalgia conversations though, something intoxicated students always bring up. No, Power Rangers WAS *****...

I need to open up, when I was once at a young and innocent age I was unaware at how great my life was. On winter nights Id walk home alone after schools football practice and arrive home to find my Mum had made me a nice dinner, Id sit infront of the TV and watch Nickelodeon without a care in the world.
On summer days Id climb trees and stay out with friends until the sun was setting, then Id walk home and run to the kitchen for a glass of water which would drip down my neck as I was so thirsty, Id go upstairs and play with my toys then watch Nickelodeon (it was good come on)

And i've just been on a nostalgia trip, its all come back to me. I can smell something, taste something or hear something which will take me back. But this is where it gets interesting, rather than me going 'wow those were the days, that was good' i think 'damn I wish I could go back, life was good back then'

So my question is do you find nostalgia depressing? is it meant to be? I'll always have those memories and I'll always love them, but when I compare those days to my own now I get slightly depressed.

...Growing up, what a b****

Here's the video that made me nostalgic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID-MXoD3h9Y&feature=fvw

Oh, incredibly so. I'm forever wishing I was a child again. You don't realise how bloody good you've got it until you grow up and it goes away.

And Nickelodeon rocked back in the day. It's total ***** now.

So true, what's wrong with the likes of Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon. I swear they have like 4 shows that they just repeat over and over. A few shows that stay in my memory are Kenan & Kel, Sabrina, Saved by the bell, Dexters lab, Coursge the Cowardly Dog and a short lived programme called Tucker.

I might write a letter to the head of Nickelodeon and ask them to have a ''90's week'' on Nickelodeon lol
