I’m order to forgive yourself for hurting someone, it’s improtant to acknowledge all that’s been done. And if you haven’t done already you need to apologise for this deed. There’s always a villain in a story, it depends on perspective but if you feel remorse, regret, guilt. I can assure you, you are not a villain. Forgiving yourself will be the most difficult thing to do. It’s a rocky and tricky road. A good start would be making amends with the person you hurt.

We all all human and we can unwittingly hurt people. We need to make sure we can talk things through before they escalate out of control. People will always have thier own agenda therefore putting extra meaning onto the problem. I’m then takes on a life of its own. Go to the person and apologise or write to them to try to resolve.

You can forgive yourself by realizing the fact that past is gone. It only exist in our brains. Whatever bad happened cannot be improved if you dont do anything to improve it. If you hurted someone then try to apologize for what you did. Try to make that person feel better. Try all the possible ways which can improve the situations between you two. You can begin with forgiving yourself and try to shift your focus on improving the situation.

There is nothing you can do about it now except apologize and accept that you cannot change the past. Carrying your mistakes with dignity is hard at first but then will build your character.

Forgiving yourself is way harder than forgiving someone else, because we judge ourselves way too much. But we have to remember that after all, we’re still humans and we do make mistakes. We do things we’re not proud of and hurt people we love, but if you have realized that what you did was wrong, then you’re not a bad person. You’re a good person who made a bad choices and you shouldn’t judge yourself just because you made a mistake. Try to think about yourself more in a positive way and if you can do anything to make up for what you did or do something good for someone else it might help.

First step: DO NOT punish yourself. I found that does no good, and makes things worse. I very much understand how you'd feel the need to hurt yourself after doing so to others, but it's not worth it.
But ways I've forgiven myself is:
- Talking it out with the person, and seeing how they feel now. Exchanging opinions and facts.
- Remembering God does not think you're a bad person; just sometimes we do bad things.
- Give it time! Very important. Wait a few days. I've waited years to forgive myself for something wrong I've done.
- Admit. You need to admit to what you've done. Take responsibility and learn from this experience.
- Don't forget about the people who care about you! This can help your self-love. Which can then help with forgiving yourself. It's easier to forgive when you're full of self-love; not self hate.
- Remember, you cannot change the past. You can only move forward from it. But maybe you can show the person you've learned from it and have changed to become a better person. Show you care about them. Care about yourself.
