Feeling bad about your past in not necessarily a bad thing. You have your present to live through and your future that is coming along. Can't avoid those anyway, so better learn from the past deal with what's ahead as best as you can. Use reason and think for yourself.

Because you can't change anything about the past even if you really want to. The best thing to do is to talk about the part in the past you feel bad about and try to accept or understand the situation or happening. Talking about the past with people who are close to me has helped me to understand why things have happened and made me accept it. After talking about it things became easier and I started to think different about current situations but also other parts in the past who were not that bad. Long story short: you feel bad because you can't change it but you can talk about it to understand it.
