Wished

I wish I had someone to talk to.

How would you say the same sentence above in the past tense?

I wished I [ had / had had ] someone to talk to. I think "I wished I had someone to talk to" is correct. Could you help me clarify it? Thanks.

deborahjeong I wished I [ had / had had ] someone to talk to. It's this. Either 'had' or 'had had' will be fine, though 'had had' is probably the more technically correct.
