Guilt, grief, and anger are common negative emotions. Feelings of guilt can come from conflicts in relationships or sadness. So what causes guilt? The article below will answer questions related to this issue .

Guilt is a complex emotion that often appears when you feel you are at fault with others and can disappoint yourself.

Guilt can manifest in different ways, from day to day, sometimes also in the form of anger and resentment. People who feel guilty may not appreciate themselves or feel stuck or stressed , making themselves angry. The consequences can be losing your temper or blurting out something you wouldn’t normally do.

Causes of guilt can be due to:

• Anxiety and fear : After an incident, we often ask ourselves questions, such as “what would have happened if I had not been present at the incident?” What if I make a mistake?”, because anxiety causes us to lose control of our emotions and feel guilty.
• Loss: People often feel sad when someone dies, because it is truly a loss. Many people will feel guilty because they feel regret and cannot accept the sad truth.
• Sin: This is very familiar to many people. Feeling guilty that you’re not doing enough, should be doing better, or just want it to end. That will become a vicious cycle that won’t help you or your loved ones.
• Sadness and depression: Every day, we have to cope with difficulties and pressures from work and life. Boring and stressful things often make us pay more attention. Over time, if not relieved, it can lead to depression .

If you are experiencing feelings of guilt , the most important thing to do is to center yourself, stay away from things that increase this condition, and forgive yourself. You should:

• Try to avoid focusing too much on negative things. Pay attention to the things you can control, such as planning for the future.
• When you lose something, such as a loved one, a pet or a favorite object. That will make you very sad. Sometimes, you just need to cry because this is also a way to help your body relieve sadness.
• If you feel guilty because you didn’t do well enough or didn’t try hard enough. See it as a lesson, a motivation to improve yourself day by day. Look at the difference you make every day.
• When the boredom and pressure is too much, don’t hide your feelings. Talk to friends or family who can provide you with positive support. A therapist can also be an effective help. You can be completely honest about your feelings without fear of being judged.
• Exercise and participating in social activities are great ways to deal with sadness and depression. Although they don’t get to the root of the problem, they will reduce stress, provide energy, improve mood and social connection if you exercise with others.
• Take more time for yourself to rest, eat healthy, get enough sleep, meditate or practice yoga.
• Focus on the positive, have a sense of purpose in your life, and show love to those around you.

In short, self-care not only focuses on the physical body but also needs to improve the spirit. Every emotion, positive or negative, has value. We cannot avoid good and bad emotions in life, accept and experience them easily. Let’s put aside the feelings of guilt and try not to influence them, live positively, be sociable, spend time with family, friends, community groups as well as activities that bring joy to you. self.
