I ALWAYS feel guilty. And usually when I'm in the shower. I start to feel bad about everything and only want to do good things. Its like when you feel homesick for your family. Its preventing me from going out and having fun and having a boyfriend because I feel so bad. Its like I just want to be with my family and I hate it.
What's going on?
No, it's not normal, I believe you should seek professional help, guilt can be really painful and I'm sure you don't deserve to suffer it.
thats usually your self concious speaking, and it might be saying that you need to work things out with your family, because its preventing you from average every day life. and doing the things you would want to such as getting a boyfriend, getting married, and haveing kids. how do you expect to move on with your future if you have not yet faced your pass? take one step at a time. good luck and God Bless:)
Depending on your situation you may feel guilty because you've been conditioned to have an over active sense of morality. To clarify; when you do good things for others are you doing it solely to make them feel better, or is knowing that you made them feel better make you feel better, thus giving you personal satisfaction. For example; how many people do you know do good things and don't brag about in any way, shape, or form? What you need to understand is that you need to make peace that you are the way you are and only you can make yourself happy by doing stuff for yourself and enjoying the little things (zombieland). Going down the road of Ghandi and mother tereasa means you have to give up being happy. So answer the question: Are you gonna be happy for you or are you only gonna be happy when you bend over for others?
Guilt is a totally subjective, relative emotion. The fact that you feel guilty all the time implies that you may have low self-esteem. There are criminals, murderers out there who feel no guilt at all about their evil-doings.
I too feel guilty all the time, and yet I've done pretty much nothing to feel guilty about. I even get panic-attacks sometimes, triggered by feelings of guilt, so if it keeps bothering you, maybe you should talk to a professional.
I feel guilty a lot when I don't do things right or if I feel like I'm not being a good friend, daughter, sister, co-worker...the list goes on. I think it's a part of anxiety though. I have a lot of anxiety so I am exercising and am going to start meditating. Maybe all these sort of negative thoughts you start having in the shower are a part of anxiety. I too sort of obsess about being a good, kind person and worry if I am not.
i feel guilty at nite when im aboutto sleep and i repent from all the bar things i did during the day.
well, it's not normal in the way, if anything effects your well being you should see someone.
the reason why you feel this is because society tells you what is normal and what isn't. you've probably done too much "evil" to them which is such bull, i feel the same way as you...
