You are the only person that can answer your question. You have to think about your intentions and what you did. Once you rationalise that, you will come to a conclusion.

If we're getting technical, I could say I am always the one at fault. In the end, the life I am living is solely mine, so everything must come down to me, right? However, after experiencing certain situations and living through certain things, I can also come to the conclusion that despite being the one "at fault", there are some things that are beyond my control. I'll wonder and ponder why I did something and think-- why on earth did I do THAT? The answer is I don't know. So to the question, "Am I the one at fault" I can honestly answer-- both, yes and no. :)

Blaming self won't solve any issues. Instead try focusing on the solution and try different ways on how to overcome the obstacle. It might seem overwhelming to you for the problem that is at hand but solving it might ease the burden. Think Carefully.

Hi there! This is a complicated question for any situation, and completely normal to ask. Sometimes, it helps to consider what fault means though. Did you harm anyone intentionally or unintentionally? If so, how would you go about fixing it? What were the reasons behind your actions? Asking questions like this can help us grow as people, and admitting fault doesn't make you a bad person. We all make mistakes, and it is important to admit these to ourselves and reflect on how to avoid them in the future. If it wasn't your direct actions that caused something, but instead your actions were part of a chain of events or indirectly contributed to something bad happening, that doesn't make it entirely your fault. It might help to think of some ways you can avoid a similar situation in the future, or how you can help whoever was hurt. Then there are some things in life that are no one's fault, but we feel like we are to blame anyways. These are hard because even if logically you know you couldn't have prevented it or known it would happen, it doesn't make you feel any less guilty. Perhaps what happened even hurt you. It's natural to want to blame someone or something for a situation, but sometimes who is at fault isn't the important part. What would you say to a friend who was in your situation? What advice would you give to help them repair the damage or move on from the hurt? Try writing a letter to this friend, and see what words of forgiveness and help you can find to give them. Then read it to yourself. I hope this helps!
