I have cataloged in my brain most of the embarrassing things I've ever done and often when I'm alone and nothing is distracting me, I start replaying them in my head and have to yell at myself to make the memories stop. I'm terrified of screwing up because of this. I know it'll be there forever.
I do that too, it's like a sick torture that kind of feels good. It makes you squirm and blush but you think and think and think about it over and over again. I dunno why, but I do it too.
Animals don't get embarrassed? You've apparently never seen my dog fart. ;-)
I've never understood why humans "invented" a sense of embarrassment when no other animal has found a need for this. What use is it?
In your case, you've done embarrassing things in the past, you'll do them in the future. Just like everyone single one of us reading your post. Try not to punish yourself for something that's entirely normal.
My dog gets embarrassed wen hes taking a dump and im starin at him. I find it hilariouse!
My cat certainly gets embarrassed when he falls off the couch (or fall of anything) and I laugh at him. It doesn't last long but he clearly looks like he feels stupid.
Sometimes I look back too, at the dumb stuff I've done and shake my head, but hey, there's nothing you can do about it now.
Just use the past as a learning experiance & grow stronger so you don't screw up again.
I'm the exact opposite. If anything embarrassing happens to me I bury it deep down and never think about it ever again.
But we all have different ways of coping so you're normal.
