Hi there, thank you for the response.

Can you explain what you mean by "copy AA"? Do you mean the AA support groups? I do feel as if I need to forgive myself but I am finding it very hard. I am also very very ashamed of the past mistakes I mentioned so it is very difficult for me to talk about.

Therapy would be an attractive option but I think at the moment it is just not feasible for me, sadly. Do you (or anybody else here) have any experience with dealing with guilt and shame through therapy?
