I am sorry

I am sorry that I didn't think of other people's feelings more, sorry I was rude to them. And on this forum I was either upset or drunk at times and didn't mean everything I posted.
I feel I am looking after myself more, not drinking, going for exercise. I still really need helplines and phone them maybe ever three days on average. I still really need my mental health nurse too. I had a counselling session today and I will have more. I am on meds for depression and sleep issues. One of my three meds has began given me bad side effects though so I hope there will be an alternative that works. I have had traumatic experiences as a young child, older child, teenager and as adult.
(If I have feelings of self harm I will seek NHS help immediately)
I struggle to get regrets out my head, it's immensely difficult 🙁😭
 
I hope that the efforts you are putting in lead to you feeling better and having a more balanced life. So often, feeling sorry and taking accountability for past mistakes is the first real step in breaking a detrimental cycle and making lasting changes.

Don't give up. Progress is not always linear, but if you keep moving forward with optimism and resilience, you are bound to make your life better.
 
I don't mean to be dismissive of your experience, and please don't take this the wrong way, but looking at your post I am wondering whether you've actually done something that requires penitent. You were rude? Posted while drunk? I'm wondering whether it's really serving you to be contrite. I say this because I am a person who has had guilt over being simply alive, but someone recently said he had stopped apologizing for autism. So I guess I'm saying: no need to apologize. You seem like a nice person nothing is wrong with you. Most of us tend to be rude and miss things socially.
 
This self-awareness is very important and shows you are stepping outside of yourself to understand others. It's a tough path with depression, and it's important that you are moving forward with this plan. This forum is here for you.
 
I am sad to hear of your struggles. Being an error prone human is who we are and I hope that you will give yourself some grace in your struggles. Sometimes it is hard . . . yesterday I found myself getting short with people as I was playing double deck pinochle. They were lengthily pondering their bids as I was getting nothing but crap hands.
