Do you take time to reflect on where you went wrong ?

I think I know where I went wrong but I'm not always completely sure but it's still good to own your part of things. It's good to remember...it's good to learn something about ourselves that we can apply for the next time or with a future person ...

Yes, Iam the same. If I realize I've made a mistake, I have no problem admitting it. I've never felt ashamed of saying sorry because I believe it takes strength, not weakness, to own your actions. We all make mistakes, but what matters is whether we learn from them and try to do better next time.
@Ann99 sometimes it's too late to make ammends abd that's ok ...that is just life ...

Yes, I know all of the mistakes I’ve made, even if they were part of a reaction to something bigger. One thing that I like about myself is that I don’t ever make the same mistake twice, I learn with my mistakes, so even though sometimes I’m too hard on myself for my past mistakes, I like to think how I learn with them, and genuinely try to change and become a better person.

I've come to the point in life where I accept who I am, recognize all my mistakes, made peace with them and learned what I can from them... I'm not perfect by any means, but I do think I'm a better version of me.

That, for me, counts as something and I'm at peace with myself.
@Ontheroad I oscillate between being at peace and not being at peace ...I'm blaming mother nature

@cherny truth be told, I not infrequently question my being at peace with myself, but almost always quickly see where nah, couldn't be... I'm perfect😁
If you don't acknowledge where you went wrong then you never release yourself from past disasters. It's not just about learning, it's about moving forward. You don't have to take the blame for something to think about where you could have made better choices. Accepting that you have some control over what befalls you helps to give you back some power.

I think it was Socrates who said the life lived unexamined is the life not worth living... Unless you enjoy making the same mistakes again and again...
Too much time- to the point it becomes paralyzing. Seems to be part of the depression bundle I received without ever ordering it.
@cherny I only hope you’ve done better than I when it comes to intellectual understanding leading to meaningful healing. Despite years of different medications, therapists and thinking about the issue, I’ve failed miserably at transforming one into the other.
@OlderSometimesWiser I have good days and not so good days ...I'm a tough cookie though ....I've been more emotional than nornal lately and I'm trying to pause and reflect ...i think it's many things all happening at once and my circuits are overloaded
@cherny Well for what it’s worth, my money’s on you for the win. 🙂

if only I'd thought of the right words.

but that's a trap because there were no right words. it wasn't even a game cuz someone can win in a game, it was just selfishness to levels that you wouldn't have thought people could be selfish.
