What do I do when I know I have done something that is wrong and need to quit feeling guilty about it and move on? Im obsessively thinking about it and cant stop.
I feel so bad I just feel depressed and anxiety.
I don't know what the heck to do... how do I make it go away?  |
In my case I find what I think is guilt really isn't guilt but some thing else. What i do is analyze the reason I am feeling "guilt", and you have to be totally honest with yourself. No one is listening so we can be totally honest with ourselves. 99% of the times I can identify the feeling I thought was guilt was really some thing else. Let me give you an example.
I cut in front of another car that could have caused an accident. I feel bad, I think I feel guilty but being perfectly honest with myself I discover the reason I felt bad was if I had caused an accident I would loose my license and have to pay a lot of fines. But before I really analyzed that I thought I was feeling guilt.
When you do some thing wrong, ask yourself what is really bothering you. Is it embarrassment? How about fear of getting caught or discovered? May be regret because there could have been a better less risky way to accomplish the same thing.
If it turns out to be actual guilt, I can't help you. Usually I found the reasons to be more about SELF.
