Allison, I have had the exact same problem with embarassing thoughts for as long as I can remember. What has helped me deal with them is an experience I have had a couple times where I found out that a couple of my most intensly embarassing moments had been completely forgotten about by everyone except me! So, now when I am overcome by a specific embarassing memory, I take the sting out of it by saying to myself, "It's over and done with and I bet that no one else involved has any memory of it what-so-ever!!". After all, if I'm the only one who remembers something, what is there to be embarassed about, really? Hope this helps! CarolAnn
