And then feel like burning with shame? I feel that now.

The things we need to do the most are the hardest.

Sometimes, yes...

I think we all do that at some point.. But there is no judging here. No worries

Shame is the feeling you get when you commit an action that is outside your own standards. Trust me everyone feels this at many points throughout their lives. However feeling shame about things you do due to mental illness is not quite the same. I no longer feel shame if do something odd in the presence of others unless it caused by me skipping my meds. However if I do something odd at any time I still need to think about what I said/did in effort to train myself not to do it again. Seems like I'm always training myself about one thing or another.

Shame is just a reminder that you have a good set of standards and that all you did was take a quick step outside of those standards. So just learn from it, apologize if required and carry on.

Sorry to hear that...i don't personally. I'm responsible for what i say and realize that this is a public platform open to public input, so there's going to be the chance that i hear something i don't want too. It's part of the process...but this is a place for helping each other, we shouldn't have to feel ashamed for reaching out or offering input.
