Persisting Guilt & Rumination

Somehow I can't shrug this lingering feeling inside and it's becoming a big problem. I'm not even sure if this is depression issue or anxiety, but it feels like a mix.
I struggle with both of these. I don't know what forgiving yourself means or how to just let go of things and let time get some distance.
I hold onto so many mistakes and transgressions and have repeated mistakes that perpetuate the whole cycle of feeling terrible. I feel like I deserve any bad things that happen.
I have done some lousey things to people, nothing horrible, but definitely selfish and foolish things. I don't know how to let go if I have wronged someone and not obsess over remedying the situation, even it can't be done.
