I know what you mean, sitting, suddenly a pang of guilt, a bad memory, something I did many years ago, why? I have negative thoughts like that, usually memories like that come back, very sharp very vivid, completely out of the blue, cringe, something I have not thought of for decades, "Did I really do that?" then remembering the occasion, guilt comes in, try to forget it, but because it was so vivid, it might last for a long time, nasty!

I am sorry you are experiencing this. In the past, people have suggested trying to replace negative self-talk with positive self-talk. It is not real easy, but each time I catch myself in negative thinking (saying I am not good enough), I try to remind myself that I am good enough and to not give up. It has helped me, but I don't always remember to do this every time. I am holding you in healing light because you are worthy. 🙏🙏🙏

Hi Nothingnoted, I am sorry that you are feeling so down. I often can find some self compassion for myself if I go back and look at motives for doing things. It doesn't mean I feel good about it, but I can understand where I was coming from. David Burns has a lot of methods for helping with our thinking errors. I also found it quite freeing realizing that our worth is static, we cannot add to it or detract from it. I wish you peace on your journey ☮️
