i agree with the writers above, Our past can only hurt us if we allow it to. It is our own perception that gives it power or takes the power away. I can relate to the notion of things from the past. I think we all have things we have done that are not pretty or helpful, but as I learned from DBT. The past is what it is because we did the best we could at that time. If we could have done better at that time, then we would have. Beating ourselves up only hurts us. I hope you can find some peace within the words written in our posts. Be safe my friend.
