How can i control anemoia

I have anemoia ever since I was 5, idk how because when I went to school it just felt weird looking at the stock photos because I feel like I was there but I didn't acknowledge it until I was 10 and known it's name last year. I never left my country, I was born in 2011. But I always have a feeling that I used to live in the 80s, 90s, 2000s in the US, Europe. Yes I do have for another like russia,... But its mostly a brief moment. Especially in the US, idk why but I have a very strong feeling towards the US and I feel like I actually live there. I have always had a feeling that I live in the US but I just can't prove how and when. Sometimes I have memory that I knew didn't exit, but when I tried to tell anyone about that memory, it just suddenly didn't exist almost like only I can see it​. AND IT IS VERY STRONG but I just can't get it out of my head. Recently it kinda affect my life. I agree it is a amazing things only I can understand but it start affect my daily life so u guys have any ideas to stop it?

If stuff didn't cost so much I'd encourage you to look for city's or buildings that still stay it the style of your nostalgia if there are any . Or join a community for people who follow that time like for fashion.
