Correct.

Well, I can't say I do things that make me feel ashamed, except for cutting that is. I feel ashamed a lot though but that's mostly because I think I suck; I think I'm a lousy person who can't do things the way I "should" be able to (due to autism). My psychologist, however, is convinced I'm a good and smart person and she says I have nothing to be ashamed of so none of that affects our relationship. I know that's probably not what you meant, but still, it's the only example I can think of.
