What are you ashamed of? Are you ashamed of your body? Of your home? Of your job? Your friends? Your clothes? Living a life ashamed can be confusing and heartbreaking all at the same time. Once the wall comes crashing down, the others aren’t far behind. You feel you want to crawl under a rock and disappear completely. Nothing ever stacks up when you’re carrying major shame in your life.
Shame is one of the most destructive and debilitating emotions humans can feel and occurs when people feel bad about themselves in comparison to their standards for themselves as well as those of society. Feelings of shame can lead people to engage in self-destructive and risky behaviors, such as alcohol and drug abuse, and can also cause long-term physical and emotional problems, including bodily pain, depression, low self-esteem, and anxiety. However, you can avoid this path entirely by making a concerted effort to let go of shame and instead value yourself and your contributions to the world. It's important to remember that you are so much more than just the one thing you may have done, said, or felt.
