Does anyone get immense and self-hating guilt occasionally, or, for that matter, on a daily basis?
This really drags me down-- and I think it's partly because of how I was raised, a Catholic. When it comes to masturbation, there is immense guilt. When it comes to speaking my mind, I am extremely careful and guilty if I say something the least bit controversial. When it comes to expectations, I'll always feel guilty even if things are out of my control, or if I've done a great job. Always, and it's such a bummer. It's a feeling of constant worthlessness, and I challenge myself daily to get over it. However, I just get the feeling that it's something innate, that I've been channeled to behave like this since I was a child, and now it's second nature.
Anyone experience this?
