I'm Sorry For many years, I carried deep feelings of guilt with me. Which have shifted again and again, as soon as I apologized to a person, for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself, for many years. Until I realized that the One I really needed to apologize to was myself. I tortured myself the most. So I apologize to myself for what I did to myself. And the intention to apologize is everything. So I find my innocence; which I had once lost. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And thus I do no harm to others. Because I am at peace with myself and thereby with the world. Therefore, apologize to yourself if you carry feelings of guilt with you. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts suffering and apologizing takes away suffering. "Anyway" and "yes" are the words that enable me to apologize to myself. Because I get impulses to get back into the hamster wheel of apologizing or torturing myself for certain things. But I say, "Yes, I'm apologizing to myself anyway." And I apologize to others when it's my free choice. And I use these two methods to do that. By either apologizing to people personally or apologizing to people within myself, if I don't want to make it personal. Because the honest intention is enough.

I m suffering from 7 years

[@maddi-t]

I don’t know who needs to hear this but you are not alone in your suffering. Everyone fucks up. That’s the reality of being a human. I fucked up pretty bad towards the end of 2023. I was lost for a really long time, I didn’t have a strong sense of self, I forgot who I was, I had all this toxic shame within me from traumas I didn’t know how to handle productively, and I gave my power away to way too many people in ways that made me very malleable to the influence of others, and which continued to damage my relationship with myself. And then all that self-neglect caused me to make a big mistake-I betrayed my partner at the time and one of my close friends. (*trigger warning*) And that shit almost made me kill myself because of how excruciating the remorse and the shame and the guilt felt of hurting the people I love. But I’m here, living to tell you that sometimes it’s in the moments that you’re REALLY lost, in those moments where that huge fuck up is staring you in the face that you realize “oh shit, this is not who I am.” More often than not, you realize more about who you are by experiencing who you are not. And you find greater compassion for others who are also lost, who have also made mistakes, when you experience what it’s like being on that end of the spectrum. It’s a humbling reminder that no one has any right to judge others, because we’re all suffering from something and we all have made mistakes. Everyone has been hurt and has caused hurt in some way because humans are super complex and that’s just life. You’re not any less than someone who hasn’t made the same mistake(s) as you, because you don’t know all the ways they’ve also made mistakes-And we’re all human. I’m not perfect, you’re not perfect, and neither is anyone else-even the people who we look up to have their faults. We’re all on this Earth learning as we go with literally no instruction on how to live our own life with the specific cards we’ve been dealt with. No one is above or below anyone else. Your past does not define who you are. The biggest truth in life is that nothing is permanent-everything is always changing. And there’s so much relief in realizing the beauty of that, because you realize you don’t need to attach to anything-and especially not the past versions of yourself. Every moment is an opportunity to change and grow, and to continuously redefine who you are and who you want to be. It is never too late to try again-to learn from your mistakes, and to take the action you need in this ever-present Now moment to do better. Like anything in life, you try your best, you make a mistake, you reflect on what you can do better, and you try again with the new information you have. The remorse never fully goes away-there will always be times where it may resurface, where you will remember the guilt or the shame. But as you learn to continue sitting with it and simply observing that feeling within your body without any judgement, you begin to see that feeling for what it is-a feeling. It’s not something that defines who you are. It’s just an emotion that arises within your body as a natural occurrence of whatever event triggered that emotion. And it’s something that you can handle and move forward with, and integrate as a reminder of how to not make the same mistake. It gets easier. And no matter what people think of you, no matter what people say about you, no matter how they treat you, you are not your past. You are not your mistakes. You don’t have to cling on to a past version of yourself just because someone else is holding onto it. Other people’s opinions and behaviors truly have nothing to do with you-You’re not responsible for anything else but the thoughts, words, and actions YOU have in this present moment. You can’t do anything about other people, the past, or the future. Everything you need is all within you and all you have is right Now. Spend your present moment giving yourself compassion, leaning into things that bring you joy, implementing actions that reflect the type of person you want to become. If you are still alive after all the shit that has caused you guilt or shame, you still have a greater purpose here on this Earth. All these mistakes and rock bottoms are just stepping stones to help you figure how to continue changing your actions to align with your soul. These are part of your awakening. Keep regular record of all the progress you’re making, big or small, because it’ll help you in the long run. And above all, you are so loved. No matter what has happened to you or what you may have done, there is always going to be the one truth: that love is always within you, always around you, and always here for you to return to. Love is ever-present and despite how everyone and everything in this material world will come and go, that Source of love-call it God, Spirit, the Universe, whatever-will never leave you because it is love without limitation or condition. You will always be loved no matter who you are, where you are, or what you do. For the sake of yourself, rise up against all of it and remind yourself that you are good enough, you are valuable, you are worthy, and you are capable. Live your life out of devotion to your soul and out of devotion to the Source of love, and you will find yourself overflowing with a light that remains constant even in the midst of your greatest adversities. Change your focus to change your reality. Sending love to all of you 🤎

[@nictibbetts]

If you feel guilt or shame that is good! It means you have a functioning brain. The worst kind of people are those who have no guilt, remorse, shame, regret, etc. typically people who are psychopathic in nature, simply too stupid or have no emotional regulation. If you have one of the aforementioned emotions take them in, ponder them, and adjust your life in a way that will allow you to avoid such emotions in the future. When you experience emotions like these it’s your mind/social conditioning telling you something is wrong and you need to pivot or change your behavior moving forward.

[@cecasheille]

popular lying interchangeably, you just described almost everyone. you know all about ~all social conditioning? its ~always the most subnormal psychopathic thing impossible normalised. being innocent guiltless independent of it is able to gauge any morality or anything at all to provide voices of reason independently of fakely looking normal by fully lying contexts. ppl use the inventions of the few conscious ppl as insulting them all the times for everyone else having no guilt shame remorse as reversing it ref nazis witchhunts crusades crucifixions infinite etcs normal moral social approvals agreeable autopilot herd mentality ppls (*i dont value being fashionably wrong, wrong measurements low rank is high rank). i see most social conditioning leads to ~all psychopathy in all of histories, you only hear about one singled out news headline outcasting targets to make everyone else dishonest to avoid the same creating fictitious minorities *its also deeply true, its an invisible weight only those sensitive to this carry when living a sold out life not worth living i think these are true good advices thank you ❤❤😊

[@nictibbetts]

@@pearlmiller3868 not sure what you mean by “preprogrammed” in this context but if you’re referring to deeply seated childhood trauma then nothing changes except overcoming said emotions is much harder because they are firmly rooted and your brains structure and chemistry is likely very well established. In my opinion there are three* ways to go about fixing* something like this. Your first option and probably most the conventional way would be to seek therapy. Your second option would be to take some form of drug that would immediately give your brain neuroplasticity allow it to change. People typically do this under guidance/supervision. Lastly maybe the harder or potentially easiest option would be to just “not care” and to try and make the best of things. You can’t change the past and the only thing you have control over in this life is your mind (assuming you aren’t a schizo or something). Best of luck.

I'm living with this guilt right now over something that happened 10 years ago. I've been contemplating not being here anymore. I don't feel worthy of a good life, friends, and a healthy relationship. I'm trying to make my way back to God. I know He's always with me. I just wish I wasn't going through this alone on earth..... I needed this.

I also dealt with feeling suicidal this year because of guilt. I just want you to know though that no one is perfect. We make mistakes and sometimes we donthings we shouldn't but we have to learn and grow from those mistakes. You are not dirty or filthy or unworthy. You are beautiful and pure. You dont have to punish yourself you have already suffered so much. I pray that you experience supernatural peace. I know god gave me peace . Know that how you are feeling now is temporary sis.

[@j.aravena2158]

The thing that killed, anihilated, destroyed and erased my guilt was studying philosophy and society. It would be very easy for me to claim that we have free will, but we have so little that its minimal compared to what ir could be, everything is influenced by something 99% of the time. The other thing is, society, justice, culture, institutions they all asume we have this enormous free will, so then we have all the responsability for all of our acts as if we owe something to society everytime a group of predetermined facts about our psyche its transformed into an action. Our will is trainable, we could think and reason more but not everyone does it, society is wrong, culture is wrong, institutions are wrong and that is what causes this pathological guilt you have, you feel judged, if you were alone in an island you wouldn't feel this for sure, its the unnatural claim that every action of yours is under absolute control and that is a delusion, a delusion in which society works of course but not the most objective truth you can get, its far from that. Now that you know this (study this, without a bias, even without wanting it to be true) forgive yourself and move on and be better, be concious, be here and now, accept your past but SIT and do all this, its gonna take some months probably but your brain will let it go and start to function again normally, like mine now. I copied my comment because I didn't wanna type the same advise over and over again. And get to know Jesus, He is the truth, I don't follow Gos because of confort btw, I accepted him after I cured all my guilt on my own so you could say I cleaned myself before the shower 😂 but whatever, thats me

@@mnvn YES! 'NOs' are necessary for Healthy Boundaries! I had no idea what narcissism was, never heard of it, but then my sister said I was a narcissistic sociopath. Then she threw her head back and laughed. Always a clue with her that there is more to the story! I went home and looked it up and her picture was there! I knew her ex husband was going to a shrink because of her. They had been separated for decades 30, 40 and she wouldn't let him go. When I asked her why, she said, " I find him entertaining." I suspected his shrink diagnosed her. He left her while she was on a ski trip. He'd bought a house in the mountains and was already moved in when he 'disappeared'. She would have him come to family holidays even though he was then living with someone else. She is SOooo controlling! I've come to find she is a narcissistic psychopath. She and my other sister conspired to take my mother 'out' because she wanted the house, our inheritance! She rewrote my mother's will to give her total control of the house after Mom's death and then conspired to up costs for us to pay which she tried to sue us for, while she rent the beach house out, and spend all the estate money for the next 7 years by keeping the house in probate for control. I have been 'no contact' for those 7 years except when I heard from her lawyer. The judge had ruled the house be sold so she dropped the suit to keep control of the house. Then my brother died, and we were on the same page with this. I'm now suing her to get her removed as executrix. Money well spent. She is rewriting her lies and running in a panic! I've never seen such a panic! Those 7 years of 'no contact' were the most difficult, and intense self awareness 'lessons' I have ever experienced. After receiving GODs download of wonderful Healthy Boundaries, and practicing yelling NO into my bathroom mirror (what a wonderful sound! So freeing). The next hurdle was denial! A codependent carries around denial for protection and it is extremely heavy, a burden. Denial is simply lies you tell yourself. Why? Because the truth is too painful, however, no matter how difficult the Truth will set you free! The lies I told myself were destroying my life, and relationships as they little by little chipped away at me. Celebrate Recovery was the catalyst for that! It was tough but Truth is free from the self inflicted emotional wounds of the lies of denial we use to survive in a situation. Getting out of that situation is the only way to heal, and find out who you are, not who someone else says you are. The truth is when I'm around them, their toxicity is more than I can handle now because I'm healed and recognize it for what it is. Codependent people are groomed to be kind, considerate, have unlimited patience, are helpful puppies and so much more! Wonderful traits, however, it's the Healthy Boundaries that have been denied by a narcissistic parent or two! When you find you have value, worth in GOD'seyes, it changes everything because you know you're loveable! If the GOD of the universe loves you, King of all kings, hey! Nothing can stop you! You are royalty, sons and daughter of the living King! Just sayin', it's good to know your GOD's beloved! 💌

When my son passed away I was racked with guilt. The first day he was in the hospital he had symptoms he never had before and I questioned the nurses. They told me I was feeding his anxiety. He was in acidosis & the steroids he was on skewed hid true glucose numbers. He was on them because it's how they treat Addisons disease. The local hospital he was in was not the best. By the time I asked him to transfer they said he could die in transfer. After he passed I developed Hashimotos disease my mind had turned on my body. I worked in health care I felt I should of known. It is so hard to forgive yourself & tell yourself you were not in charge of his care. The mind-body connection is strong. You have to give yourself grace to forgive yourself.

There is valid guilt, and there is false guilt. As a Christian, I believe in both, and I believe in repentance, forgiveness, and grace. I also like the Serenity Prayer.

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried deep feelings of guilt with me. Which have shifted again and again, as soon as I apologized to a person, for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself, for many years. Until I realized that the One I really needed to apologize to was myself. I tortured myself the most. So I apologize to myself for what I did to myself. And the intention to apologize is everything. So I find my innocence; which I had once lost. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And thus I do no harm to others. Because I am at peace with myself and thereby with the world. Therefore, apologize to yourself if you carry feelings of guilt with you. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts suffering and apologizing takes away suffering. "Anyway" and "yes" are the words that enable me to apologize to myself. Because I get impulses to get back into the hamster wheel of apologizing or torturing myself for certain things. But I say, "Yes, I'm apologizing to myself anyway." And I apologize to others when it's my free choice. And I use these two methods to do that. By either apologizing to people personally or apologizing to people within myself, if I don't want to make it personal. Because the honest intention is enough.a

Hey. Don't know if anyone is going to read this comment, but we all know why you're here. It's the same reason we're all here. Maybe you just scrolled across it, or you're searching for ways to forgive yourself, like I am. I messed up incredibly bad the other day, and just about got sent away for what I did. But I'm still here, mainly because I think that there is still a purpose for me left in this life. If you're still here, you have a reason to be. I don't know how many of you who read this are religious, but I believe that there is a God above who loves unconditionally, even if we don't show him love back, and I believe that he still has a purpose for me left here. But that really isn't the point of this comment. The point is that you've messed up if you're reading this. I've messed up. We all have. I know it's hard to do, but you have to forgive yourself and move on. Yes, you may have to face consequences for you actions. But if you aren't dead by the time that you are done facing the consequences, then you still have something left to do here. I believe in you. You have a second chance. Keep going. The race isn't over. You've got this.

[@Dostoevskymyman]

Thank you, Doc. I have this tendency to blame and push myself into guilt. I have been told I am too hard on myself once or twice, but I do not think I need to change that. However, guilt and shame are forms of corrosion. Taking self accountability too far, and thinking you are the reason behind every goddamned terrible thing, it eats away at your sanity. I am under confident, second guess myself too many times even when I'm evidently correct, less assertive than I'd like to be. I'm working on it. I will let those parts of myself burn and chip away which make me weak. And I must come out of the fire as the individual I aspire to be. Needless to state, it's excruciating, but so is this.

This clip is so helpful. It is so validating that Dr Peterson has observed this, because in my experience being consumed with guilt and shame is a very common thing of childhood trauma. As he says, we operate on the assumption that we are guilty by default, so we can’t defend ourselves. Incidentally, I found this passage in the Bible where Satan is referred to as the Accuser ( and also as the Dragon and the Snake… the same snake from the garden of Eden). The verse is in the Apocalypse (or Revelations): Ap 12, v9-12.

As someone who has suffered exactly what you describe, it is so freeing to hear your treatment and understanding of our despair and depression. Thank you, Mr. Peterson. I wish you had been my psychologist through the years of deepest darkness. There is no pain like mental pain. No pill can fix it, and no compassion can soothe. It is inner healing that most doctors in my experience know nothing about. I am 70 now, and because of God's love and word of truth, I am better, far better than I was in my 20's, trying to raise children. My husband tried to understand, but no one could explain to him why I could not rid myself of guilt and shame at not being perfect. It is hard still, but you said it well.

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried deep feelings of guilt with me. Which have shifted again and again, as soon as I apologized to a person, for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself, for many years. Until I realized that the One I really needed to apologize to was myself. I tortured myself the most. So I apologize to myself for what I did to myself. And the intention to apologize is everything. So I find my innocence; which I had once lost. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And thus I do no harm to others. Because I am at peace with myself and thereby with the world. Therefore, apologize to yourself if you carry feelings of guilt with you. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts suffering and apologizing takes away suffering. "Anyway" and "yes" are the words that enable me to apologize to myself. Because I get impulses to get back into the hamster wheel of apologizing or torturing myself for certain things. But I say, "Yes, I'm apologizing to myself anyway." And I apologize to others when it's my free choice. And I use these two methods to do that. By either apologizing to people personally or apologizing to people within myself, if I don't want to make it personal. Because the honest intention is enough.

Forgive yourself first. I find it hard to tell myself im a victim. I find it easier to look at my own actions and self punish rather than say it was not my fault, even though it wasn't. I find it harder to allow others to be held accountable for their actions and forgive easily even though i can not do it for myself. I am finally accepting to listen to my own voice and tell myself it wasn't my fault. which, in turn, helps me stay strong to hold others accountable and set boundaries, which helps build the defence. I found that people who are hurting you will feel uncomfortable with you saying you're hurt and damaged from their actions because they have "careless self" righteousness. Because they have to live with their actions. You need to defend your soul, and i need to defend mine. You are so profound in your innocence and injuistice and the guilt and shame is on me... the level of attack on my soul tells me level of guilt they carry. They way the mind and the brain works. 🧠🤯 I forgive you ❤ God forgives you 🙏

@@user-so4sv1dq4z what I did did to my previous gf was monstrous.. insane even. I hurt her not physically, But mentally, emotionally, and from sense a trust betrayed her. In the time since, I keep apologizing to myself knowing right now if possible I'd do anything to help and rectify what I caused. Knowing she doesn't ever want to see me again, I've been taking steps towards self forgiving. Asking for Christ's guidance and forgiveness for the Inherent evil in me. Now I'm happier knowing I've taken responsibility for the monster in me and he will never find his way out to another soul. Thanks you for your story. It meant everything to me.

You are an amazing human being. Not knowing the concept of forgiveness can have many negative consequences mentally and physically. Fear, guilt, shame are triggers for personal growth but can also devastate a life. The external consequences can be dealt with from an internal position of forgiveness and innocence as you mention.

After I attend somebody's presentation, I always think that I will also work hard. But then I get distracted always. Then when it's my turn to present I mess it up and look so dumb in front of everybody, I feel like people are laughing at me. My boss has started taunting me occasionally and I feel like I deserve it. I feel so ashamed of myself, but at the same time I feel so weak and burnt out and lost.

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried deep feelings of guilt with me. Which have shifted again and again, as soon as I apologized to a person, for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself, for many years. Until I realized that the One I really needed to apologize to was myself. I tortured myself the most. So I apologize to myself for what I did to myself. And the intention to apologize is everything. So I find my innocence; which I had once lost. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And thus I do no harm to others. Because I am at peace with myself and thereby with the world. Therefore, apologize to yourself if you carry feelings of guilt with you. Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts suffering and apologizing takes away suffering. "Anyway" and "yes" are the words that enable me to apologize to myself. Because I get impulses to get back into the hamster wheel of apologizing or torturing myself for certain things.

Yes, our natural inclination is to self-righteousness and righteousness as a means of defense. What we really need to do once those natural defenses come down is to look at our actions with a cooler, dispassionate eye to see whether we were really in the wrong. John MacArthur recently did a sermon on "Dying to Self". I was really impacted by this.

The worst regret and guilt you will ever have is when you physically damage your health or your physical for taking back decisions! If you’re someone that is going through some regrets about things you did did you said please get over that that’s nothing compare to when you take bad decisions and you physically hurt yourself and damage your health. Those are the worst regrets and guilts you will ever have, if you’re Christian, please pray for me. God bless you.

I once dated this girl for 2 yrs and we broke up becoz i wasnt good enough to handle the relationship and afterall she was the heartbroken one and she felt i didn't love her at all. i got to know that her family's financial condition is really bad and they sold their house and shifted to a rented property to maintain the survival. I really really feel empty by the soul that i hurted her while she was suffering through such phase and it's really been eating me since a long time. Its been 5 years now and if i ever cross paths with her i will surely give away 50% of my wealth to her and help her in the best way but it will just portray like i am donating her due to her problems and she won't accept it, she is a woman of pride and self respect. She will die but never accept anything like that from me or from her parents too. I really want to help her but I can't

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law having become a curse for us. We thank you Lord that thru the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross we have passed out from under the curse and entered into the blessings of Abraham whom you blessed in all things, exaltation, health, prosperity, victory and God's favor.

For me it was about facing the seriousness and depth of damage shame does. Being accused or chattered about cheekily or ignored in one’s needs or dignity, or facing an ambiguous seemingly harmless indictment means facing an enemy whose power is not immediately obvious . So seeing the enormity of power this emotion has leads indeed to mounting a serious defense ; you cannot turn up to a fight with a multiple headed hydra with a bottle of beer and self deprecating irony . You need a sharp sword and a keen eye.

Because you can't torture yourself and apologize to yourself at the same time. Tormenting inflicts suffering and apologizing takes away suffering. "Anyway" and "yes" are the words that enable me to apologize to myself. Because I get impulses to get back into the hamster wheel of apologizing or torturing myself for certain things. But I say, "Yes, I'm apologizing to myself anyway." And I apologize to others when it's my free choice. And I use these two methods to do that. By either apologizing to people personally or apologizing to people within myself, if I don't want to make it personal. Because the honest intention is enough.

I think sometimes Bad choices are instinctual responses that will take us to safety ?

2 years ago my son accidentally shot and killed his best friend in our home. They were 17 at the time. I don't know how to help my son. I hear him whimper in his sleep and say sorry. It's all absolutely heart breaking. My son had charges pressed against him also. I don't know how to help him...

Youve just identified an important part of the process that i wasnt doing while evaluating my own part/transgressions/character detects. I havent been realizing the worth of my genuine innocence and pure intentions.

I'm Sorry For many years, I carried deep feelings of guilt with me. Which have shifted again and again, as soon as I apologized to a person, for something. I carried the guilt with me and tortured myself, for many years. Until I realized that the One I really needed to apologize to was myself. I tortured myself the most. So I apologize to myself for what I did to myself. And the intention to apologize is everything. So I find my innocence; which I had once lost. And by apologizing to myself, I release my guilt. And thus I do no harm to others. Because I am at peace with myself and thereby with the world. Therefore, apologize to yourself if you carry feelings of guilt with you.
