In reply to Guilt about depression - feedback please, posted by ksvt on October 15, 2000, at 16:38:13
ksvt,
I have bipolar disorder. I don't have guilt about having mental illness. I have guilt about behavior and actions while either depressed or (hypo-)manic. Not quite the same thing, but perhaps you can understand the difference. And for me it goes back 30 years to childhood. I am haunted by shameful and/or humiliating memories of past actions.
