Shame

[PsychoSerenity]

I want to post in this thread, but I've only read bits of it, and I don't have anything specific to say.

I feel shame often. And anxiety. And I often get very caught up in things trying to escape those feelings. And that tends to make things worse. And then I feel worthless.

Sometimes it goes away and I can be confident and happy. And I hope I'm improving at feeling that way more often and making the most of it when I do. But it's slow progress and I often fall back.
