A long time ago I tried to give up the idea of regret. Yes, I can behave... unfavorably... let's say. But when your in that moment it feels so real. What you're doing, however destructive, is the right thing to do... is the right way to react. I don't see it as destructive until I look back on it much later.

You can't beat yourself up over it. The best I can do is apologize to those I've hurt and hope for the best. But the only thing that can matter is the present. I can't worry about what I did in the past (although I do... easier said than done) and likewise I shouldn't get too consumed with worry as to how some future event is going to play out (again... easier said than done).
