Ashamed

[JustHeckinKillMe]

Do you ever feel ashamed when you fall in depressive episodes of yourself and the things you did when you were in a good mood? Like for me I'm ashamed of having been friendly or oversharing or funny or talkative or flirtatious or "crazy" moments when I acted immature etc

Every time

Guilt is my middle name

Self criticism is often part of depression. It can be a thought equivalent of cutting. It can be helpful to identify those criticisms that are true and useful from which we can learn and mature, from those criticisms that reflect a desire to torment ourselves.

Taking control of ones thoughts is critical to being able to manage depression. Being able to identify those thoughts that are untrue and exaggerated in order to harm ourselves can be a good first step in being able to reduce the effect these thoughts can have.

Not really shame but more a sense of regret that I wasted my time on the wrong type of people (as it seems) as they could only handle me at my best and not at my worst (physically and mentally).
