Why do I have chronic feelings of guilt? I feel like I'm a bad person, but I've never really done anything completely horrible to anyone, at least not on purpose that I can recall. I'm not a malicious person, but lately all I can think about is every wrong thing I've ever done and how people probably perceive me in a bad way. I think these feelings may stem from my family and how they treated me as a child. How do I get rid of these feelings? I just want some peace of mind.
