Excessive amount of nostalgia and grieving for the past to the point where present and the future becomes irrelevant for the person. This can be mostly caused by lack of happiness in the present and depression. The name destructive comes from the fact it causes destruction of the future due to being demotivated to do anything for it.
Patient: "The present and future has nothing for me, the brightness of my lost past is corroding my mind."

Disney Nostalgia:
"Imagine yourself in a white rose garden with a marble gazebo in the center. You are sitting in the middle of the gazebo, a wishing well a few feet away. The sound of the rushing water from the little streams surrounding you, and the mist created by the morning cold cools your skin refreshingly at midnight. You feel safe, euphoric, and at peace in this enchanting setting. Looking down at the river, you see the diamond-like reflection of the stars against the night sky and the warmth that is pure 'Disney magic' overtakes you as tears of longing and happiness dot your eyes. Take this moment. take advantage of it. Why? Because you haven't listened to these beautiful pieces in years and at long last, you can listen to them as if it was your first time. you will never get this feeling. so get a good cry in. But don't be sad, be happy."
