you are not alone, most people with a depressive illness feel very guilty. That is the illness talking, not the YOU who is not ill {{hugs}}

Thanks guys. I wrote a journal entry about it yesterday. I posted it on my journal on here. You all seem very supportive, which is awesome. I have a very hard time getting myself to open up about how I really feel to my friends, because I like to maintain a strong image for them. A lot of people rely on me to help them, so I have a hard time playing the role of the person in need because I want to be everyones rock. That's kind of why I decided to join this group.

I always feel guilty about every choice I make. It seems like everything I do somehow hurts someone and it drives me crazy. It makes me feel very trapped. What do you guys do to help alleviate the guilt?

You are far from the only one to feel guilt. Quite often we who need the help of others feel bad about it.

pah!! i blame the bloody nuns who taught us in school!!! u aint a good catholic unless u uilty for something and depression intensifies it

well you could blame your younger sister thats what i did when i was young.
Mom: "who ate all the cookies"
Me: "Um Shawna?"
with big grin and cookie crumbs on chin.

I know what your saying though i feel really guilty about allot of things and i think it has allot to do with traumas in your life.

Guilt is one of the symptoms of this illness, but I agree with Winny, I blame the "good" sisters from school!

Winny is quite right about schools. Been there, done that, got the scars.
