Hi, I'm struggling. In a nutshell, I had a very traumatic experience back in March, got extremely depressed and anxious, reached out to someone inappropriate for empathy and understanding, and ended up harassing him with emails, forcing him to rightfully demand that I stop (he had good reasons - my problem involved domestic abuse and because he's a family law attorney, there were legal ramifications/conflict of interest). It wasn't a sexual attraction or anything like that, by the way - He was just a kind person who works with abuse victims and I was feeling REALLY needy. Anyway, I feel so ashamed of myself. This whole thing went on for a few months. I have to see this person a lot as well through my son's sports. I'm mortified. But more than anything, I feel ashamed and regretful and I can't stop beating myself up obsessively about it. I know others have seen my earlier posts on various forums about this situation, but I'm so miserable. How do you let go of these things, when you act so out of character? :-(
