How do I release the past mistakes I made and stop blaming myself?

Sometimes you can't stop blaming yourself. I had to accept that about myself. That no matter how many good things I do, I will sometimes keep going back to my mistake and blaming myself for it. I learned to live with it. I can still be happy. I do as much good as I can to correct my mistakes. Sometimes you can't make direct amends to the person you hurt - reasons might be different. But I believe that it's not important, as long as you do good. I think good is universal, and even if you do something good for someone else, unconditionally, it will help you feel better, and will compensate to the harm you have done to others. Love you, wish you well.

Think of yourself as you would a good friend. Imagine someone you know is a good person who you care about came to you and confessed their mistakes. You would probably not tell them the mistakes were okay, but you would accept them, recognize they had moved on, and continue to love that person and think well of them. Nobody's perfect, so if you would forgive your friend in that kind of situation, maybe you can forgive yourself, too.

guilt, shame and past mistakes have all taken a HUGE part in our lives and they continue to scar many people; with that being said all our mistakes are in the past they're done you can't change them you can't go back now, we all wish we could but we can't. what we can change is our future. stop thinking about what you can't change think about what you can do TODAY not tomorrow or yesterday but today, think bout how you can give back to someone, how you can fix a problem or burden in your life, think about how you can help someone today, how you can give yourself some self love!

As cliche as it may sound, you cannot change what happened in the past. What you can change is how you choose to respond to it now (in the future). Often times we blame ourselves for something because we feel like we made the wrong choice. Keep in mind that every choice we make, especially first time ones, is a learned experience. Things may not turn out exactly as we hoped, or like we planned. Learn from that experience, and when the situation arises again you will be more prepared for it. You did the best thing you could at the time, and looking back at it you may see things different now because you have more experience. But at that point in time, you didn't. We are always growing and always changing, which is a benefit of being human! We learn new skills and learn from our mistakes, and that is the best thing to do when you feel like you've made a mistake. Learn something from the situation and think about what you would do differently next time, not what would should have done different last time.

Forgiveness is hard. Many people don't think about how you can forgive yourself. Something you can try is REACH. R Recall the hurt through imagination E Empathize with, sympathize with, feel compassion for, and/or love the one who hurt you (including yourself) A Give an altruistic gift of forgiveness C Commit to the forgiveness you experienced H Hold on to forgiveness when you doubt When you make mistakes it is often easy to beat yourself up about them, but it is always extremely hard to forgive yourself. Self-kindness is often condemned because many may think it is selfish. It isn't selfish at all. Taking care of yourself allows you to take care of others.
