I feel guilty for things. Especially when I snap at my husband or blurt out something mean I was trying to hold back because I knew it was irrational and PTSD related.

I answered yes, sometimes. Yes I do feel guiltly but at the same time, everyone knows my response to triggers, my reactions, and lack of interest is due to my PTSD. Yes, there are times when I cannot function , yes there are days and plans that get ruined, yes, at times I am an emotional mess. I decided that a lack of understanding and patience is detrimental to my success especially when I am not exhibiting destructive behaviors.

Yes, I slept all week and felt quite guilty about it, though nothing really suffered for it.

I have some guilt on and off now - I know that sometimes I let things fall through the cracks at work because I'm dissociated.

In terms of past behaviour, I can see why I acted the way I did and I've mostly forgiven myself for that because I'm making amends for it now. I think part of the moving on from guilt for me is being accountable for past actions. I find it easier to forgive behaviour from the past when it was before I knew what was going on. However, recent behaviour is a bit trickier because now I know what I'm dealing with so there's this feeling that I should be able to control my reactions more.
