Default Do You Suffer With a 'Guilt Complex?'

I have come to realise that the old adage, 'you can't truly love another until you love yourself', to be so very true. I know on the surface this seems to be an obvious behaviour to adopt in terms of moving forward to a healthier psyche. It just seems to be a fundamental prerequisite involved in truly coming to place of peace.

However, I am also aware that there are many dynamics wrapped up in enabling 'us' to feel that we can achieve this; I feel that guilt is one of these major components. It holds us back from actualising love for ourselves!

My example, do you feel guilty if you feel postive emotions about yourself, as if you are not entitled too?
Guilty may hold a different meaning for some people? Therefore, it could be that you feel uncomfortable? You do not feel deserving? And, if so is do you feel there is any guilt attached to these emotions?

Do you feel that guilt disables you from reaching this potential sooner rather than later?

Thanks
