    I would have to come clean if I was feeling really guilty. Or I would convince myself I did the right thing..

    make a promise to yourself not to do whatever is bothering you again

    forgive yourself ~ it was a 'learning experience' & useful in the fact that your attention was brought to a place where you can make better choices in the future

    try to find a way to repair the situation ~ it's the honest effort that counts, not the outcome ~ so don't beat yourself up if whatever happened can't be fully straightened out ~ just resolve to do your best, considering the circumstances

    that should do it

    I would apologize for it and keep it moving...they either accept or not. That simple.

    I try and think of why I did what I did or said it. Sometimes I try and get creative, write it out, draw, sing, dance, anything that is creative in getting it off my chest.

    Haha I kind of figure it wasn't murder, cause if it was, you wouldn't be on here asking for advice, cause most murders are sociopaths and they don't have a guilty conscious....

      Geez, I feel guilty ALL THE TIME. There must be something wrong with me. How can a normal healthy human being possibly feel guilty about EVERYTHING he/she has ever done? I mean everything really. How can a person possibly have inner peace with this mentality? Is this some kind of psychological disorder?

        I don't feel guilty all the time, but I'm constantly feeling some sort of strong emotion. I don't think I'll ever have inner peace.

        RE: "I feel guilty ALL THE TIME."

        Impertinent query follows. You may choose not to reply. . .

        Is the guilt from things you have done; or guilt from things you have not done, or have not done as well as you believe you should have.

        Have a feeling 'tis the latter - a self critic with the bar set so high it cannot be realistically cleared.
        In short - Do others think you are doing fine, but you are not living up to your own expectations?

          hmm.. both

          The inner turbulence comes in cycles: maybe it is the fish swimming in 2 directions.
          Fish constantly feels guilty, but when it swims in another direction, it doesn’t see conscience any more. It switches into sociopathic mode--not appalled by bloody consequences. Maybe some fish has seen more guilt in this world than in itself, pondering if worldly guilt can only be destroyed by more bloodshed. That constant guilt torture isn't doing the world any good...

    see it as a learning experience, not something to feel guilty about but a situation that you can learn from, and maybee try harder next time to hide the bodies...and wear gloves, fire also works well if you cant get a hold of high concentration hydrochloric acid.

      In my rage, I say messed up things to people sometimes. I tell them I am sorry about it later and take back what I said. My problem is that I say things that hit people real hard that they dont want to hear about themselves that I reveal to them, but I am always pretty damn accurate.
      Its hard to take back some of the things. So I go and apologise and they throw it back in my face telling me that I always use the excuse that I have a bad temper and Its okay for me to say messed up things because I apologise for it later...............would they rather I didn't apologise?..........That just pisses me off again and I say more messed up things...... fuckem '......they keep coming back for more.
      I gain inner peace from it because I know I try to apologise, even though sometimes they deserved what happen anyway.

    I just detach myself totally from it , then smile satisfied .
    But it took years and years to learn to do it and not to eat oneself .

    I have learned several techniques whenever I feel rotten. The most powerful technique is comforting myself. I sort of split up in two persons. One of them is extremely loving - unconditionally so to speak - and forgiving. This part of me comforts the part that feels rotten. Of course I cry. I go on comforting myself (it goes like comforting a baby who's upset) until I feel peace. I say things like: "it's OK, you did this because you had no choice, you are OK, I love you - I love you SO much". This is not theatre. I DO love myself unconditionally, when it comes to it. I know deep down inside I'm OK.

      but, there is always a choice ~ maybe the thing you prefer isn't one of the choices and/or the whole situation isn't fully revealed, yet ~ but, there is always a choice

    peace cannot exist without war or complexities, and also peace for everyone is different, peace for me is a bit chaotic but still beautiful if you know what I mean, my favorite saying " smile before you kill me"..............

    I always reflect upon my sense of guilt , when it happens, and it always hurts a little. I try to take the full responsability for the guilt feeling and let it bleed out until it goes away. Making a note to self - Thanks for a valuable lesson. After that i feel pretty calm and relaxed
