Yes, guilt and shame. They put you in an awful place: between being a misfit, prone to social dereliction and death, that you have to trigger and it's bloody hard.
i'm a failure let's face it, the only thing i can be proud of is i never hurt anyone, i slowly ruined and killed myself, i'm suicidal, not homicidal.
ctbing is just the cherry on the cake, i don't want to die, i'm dying slowly.
I know that i had an anxious overly protective mother and a weak depressed father, it doesn't make good children, specially boys.
so, yes, guilt and shame are powerful.
