Yes - but then you go into the vicious cycle. Something in the line of The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: Why are you drinking? — the little prince asked. - In order to forget — replied the drunkard. - To forget what? — inquired the little prince, who was already feeling sorry for him. - To forget that I am ashamed — the drunkard confessed, hanging his head. - Ashamed of what? — asked the little prince who wanted to help him. - Ashamed of drinking! — concluded the drunkard, withdrawing into total silence. --- What helps is self-forgiveness and being gentle towards oneself. (I also was in the mode of guilt-tripping myself; and still, I do that often. But it does not help.) |
