I know it's hard and depressing when you do something wrong and it feels like everyone disapproves of everything you do. And before you say that I don't--You don't know how others lived their lives, and they may or may not have had to go through the same thing as you did, if not possibly even worse.

And I know that once you've done something wrong, all you want to do is curl up into a ball and hide yourself where no one can find and hurt you, and refuse to accept that you have to confront it in the near or far future. But just look at where it got you.

You got depressed, you made more mistakes, and you feel even worse than you did before. If you want to move on from that feeling and start having things go the way that you hope for, then get up and apologize. Apologizing is the first step. After you do that, regardless if the other party forgives you or not, you at least know that you've tried to do something about it.

Which takes us to our next step: Getting you to forgive yourself. Once you've successfully done that, then you can start making things right. Quit being such a sadsack and chin up. If you keep this attitude of yours, you'll just make the same mistakes over and over again.

And I know I'm not the best when it comes to comforting people, but look, at least I'm trying to do something about it instead of leaving you to your thoughts where you'll just think up more idiotic things and go further down into depression.
