If you fail or screw up you need to forgive yourself and move on & continue pushing forward. There is no time to get stuck up & hold resentment towards yourself. Here is a tip: Forgive yourself cause you DIDN'T KNOW any better. You acted from what you KNOW and what you have been TAUGHT. You are not perfect, but you are for sure LEARNING! I failed the first business that I spent over 2 years building and it took a toll on me. But now I have recovered and started my youtube channel and even though not many watch me I keep pushing. My goal remains the same as 3 years ago, the method is just different. Get back up people and keep at it!

If you have PTSD, continue with the medications and tell yourself that you are happy and healed. Search for Law of Attraction videos for healing. Believe me it works wonders. Keep at it though.

This is what I've become. I'm 22 years old, I made a mistake when I was 18. That I doubt I'll ever truly get over. Not a minute has gone by since where I haven't thought about it. I spend months at a time laying in bed, my body feels heavy, sweats, shakes, none stop crying, in total devastation, overwhelming pain and suffering. Everything I hear, say or do relates back to the past. Times where I should be enjoying myself, as soon as I smile it creeps back into my mind and stamps out any hope. When something upsetting happens I focus on the past instead of focusing on the current situation. They are far too harsh punishments and judgements in the world. The person I am now can see past people for what they've done, realise they are a person, realise that it doesn't define or diminish them. There's laws and then there's morality. A lot of people have to suffer a lifetime over a mistake, a moral choice even. That's seen as wrong by the people in charge. I agree laws keep an order and some laws are a given but they are a lot of laws that just shouldn't be and therefore brand and label a person until the end. People believe everything they are told to believe, act how they see the other sheep act and that because something is written it's the be all end all. Without ever thinking twice, second guessing or researching. I can easily forgive just about anyone and cast no judgement. Everyone deserves a chance without that mark left on them. It's a crying shame the mass don't seem to feel the same way and things will continue to be how they are.

I'm going through the same thing. Just know that the fact that you are able to reflect on yourself and your decisions, whether good or bad, shows that you are not a bad person. Everyone has some inherent bad in them, but it's what we do to keep it at bay is what really matters. A quote I heard once that has helped me a lot says: "Good people mean well, they just don't always do well." You are not your worst moment, and I hope you know that.
@Nucleite2 жыл бұрын
I've been carrying the immense shame of letting someone in my family get hurt because I was too selfishly afraid to stop it. It's a burden that makes itself known every day of my life, and since it's a secret, that's another aspect of the torment. I keep fantasizing about turning back the clock and doing what I know is right and what I knew to be right at the time, but my selfish fear and cowardice stopped me from doing so. It's a horrible, terrible, awful feeling to know that you are responsible, even if only partly, for someone's pain and even trauma. It's such a critical strike against any sort of happiness, but then when you try to make things better, your thoughts tell you that you don't deserve it. Very recently, I've been getting into the philosophy of Buddhism, trying to shed the past, to realize that I can't change the outcome of what happened, so I can finally move on with life, build a better me, and to be of use to others currently in my life and who will eventually enter my life. I fear uncovering my secret for a few reasons, the biggest one is getting labeled as someone who wanted the outcome that resulted as a consequence of my negligence. I didn't want what happened to happen, but it's a reality, so all I can do is push forward and be better as a person. If anyone else is going through something similar, feel free to tell me in the replies. You're not alone, and no matter how bad something you've done is, whether it be criminal or something tiny that you've blown out of proportion, as long as you desire change and feel remorse, you're deserving of forgiveness and a second chance at life. You are much more than your worst, most hideous, most horrific moments.

You have went through so much, and in a way your regret shows your good actions. Sometimes we just cant bring ourself to do such things and thats normal, it may not be good but sometimes we just are scared for ourselves too. I am in shame as well for hurting an ex friend from betraying their trust and spilling a few of their secrets out of worry and naivety. Im still feeling guilty, but i just hope the best for him, and i hope i get to fully move on someday, and learn for the better Thank you for your kind words to other people going through things, its very difficult and hurtful, especially the fear and pressure from how other people would feel But your own forgiveness to yourself is also important.

Hi brother, I hear and see you. Reading your comment made me feel like I am not the only one who has to carry the shame of mistreating and abusing, who I considered a close friend‘s, trust. I have horribly screwed up to the point I lost people who are very dear to me. Many things I haven’t even realized myself since I was so selfish in my thoughts and actions. The thought of „what if“ often occurs in my mind but as we all know it is already in the past and we can’t change that. It’s hard accepting what I did and it’s hard to move forward with the knowledge that you broke and mistreated people‘s trust to the extent where they will never forgive you again. I am mentally at the worst state of my life and therefore I sought the victim role which was not ok since at the end of the day I was the one hurting them. Why would and especially should they feel remorse or pity for someone who screwed up their mental state. I feel alone and out of energy but I have to embrace and accept what I did and try to move forward. Thank you for giving me the space to talk.

Well said sister. Everyone who's locked up wants to be forgiven yet oddly enough, they're not to quick to forgive others. Unless society is willing to give someone another chance, they might as well lock 'em up and throw away the key. When I was on parole, I never ran into a fellow convict who actually had a job. I was lucky as I had an employer who stood by me but I was a very rare example.

It all stems from my childhood as well, because my father had insecurities himself, and was a manipulating controlling crybaby, that put down everyone! Born late to older generation of parents it was just awful. The best advice i can give to anyone is move away and make your own life and become your own independent person. And most of all, forgive yourself. And don't worry about what other ppl will think, because honestly... They don't care. Good luck.

It’s been years and most of these people are not even in my life anymore but I still can’t seem to get to a place where I see myself as a worthy person who is good. I’ve internalized everything said to me and also how i’ve felt about myself in these situations and can’t seem to let it go. I felt immense immediate guilt but it has only dwindled down in the slightest bit years later. I still harbor this shame everyday and even in new friendships and relationships I can’t allow myself to be free of my own judgement and past to the point that I cannot make genuine connections with people. I turn myself away which in turn makes me feel once again like I am a bad person.

Hi Lara-. It was so cool to see you on Ted Talks; one of mt favorite sites! I loved what you had to say; it needed to be said! My hope generator was broken when I got caught up with CPS. Falsely accused, I spent 3 yrs. jumping through hoops to get my daughter back. The scariest thing was that others can make you guilty with just a personal assumption and with no proof take your child - traumatic. Traumatic and hope destroying- that no matter how good you are, how strong you are, others' assumptions can manufacture a different picture and leave you helpless. My life was no longer mine; I didn't exist. And CPS knows how to wrap up a package and put a bow of success on it to perpetuate job security. My daughter was 3 then and has since gotten her Masters and is currently carving her niche. I was able to put it behind me and forgive the source of it all. And am currently active in a project I hope will change the way we handle our elderly in their last days - to die because you are surrounded by strangers all of a sudden because you were "put" in a facility is so wrong. Your physical life is still alive but your spirit and comfort/security has been taken from you by your own family who, you now feel, have written you off leaving you hopeless and lost. Anyway, Kudos to you and thank you .There's probably another book to be written in all these comments!
