This is wonderful, Gregg. I am myself recovering from a burnout and used to think I suffer from chronic guilt, but recently discovered crippling shame as the cause of my lifelong anxiety problems. Huge difference in motivating factors: Guilt is about reparation. Shame is about isolation. Subscribed out of appreciation for your courage.
HI, Thanks very much for watching and commenting... and the subscribe!! Apologies my delayed reply. I have been off the channel for a while. Thanks for sharing your experience. Hope you are recovering well! Stay in touch and wishing you a happy festive season.
Thank you for sharing your story. Your story makes me feel less alone. Your testimony helps me realize that we are working together to pass through emotions associated with anxiety and depression. I send you a big hug from Texas, USA.
Hi! Thanks for watching and many thanks for your kind words. Yes I agree speaking with others who have the shared experienced has really help me. Wishing you the best through your recovery.
Thanks for sharing. The two emotions are very destructive yet most people with depression cannot even explain what they are feeling: coz they have emotional disregulation. I am from Africa. My only single mum, concealed crucial information concerning some congenital disease. Then her, and some other family members put me in a position of compromise (my mum kind of sold me to my Rich Aunt for some time) where I think I was drug raped. You can imagine all the bitterness that I had to endure, looking back. It's only by God's mercies that I am still alive. Moreso, that I still have a sane mind. They were constantly planning how to kill me so that I couldn't expose them. Can you believe it. A family of "christians - a pastor (my closest uncle), church women leader(the Rich Aunt) and a church treasurer (my mom)". Yet forgiveness is the only thing that can heal us. May God help us. Sincerely, Victor Warui Julius.

Great share and love the video! The more awareness on topics like this the less the stigmas! Subbed to your channel and found inspiration for mine! Keep doing you!
Hi, Thanks for the feedback! I'll be happy if even just one person is to watch this and benefit from my story. Enjoy your channel and thanks for Subscribing to mine.
I have major depressive disorder with anxious distress. I messed up at work because of my unstable mental condition, and really feel guilty and ashamed.
I nearly suffered a 'job burnout', 3 months ago. I got falsely accused of not doing my job properly. I knew I hadn't forgotten one of my tasks. My then manager, never really liked me. She accused me of this, in front of another colleague, to humiliate me. I burst into tears & walked away. I stayed at work, but I hid in one cabin & I kept cleaning it. I made the bed & I couldn't stop crying. I saw the manager go out in her car. My colleague then came in to see me. She told me, to "hang in there awhile longer". I said "thanks". I finished my tasks, then I went home. I stayed, but my manager, kept her distance from me, for 2 weeks & she totally avoided me,(good). But I got her messages from my colleague. A few weeks later, the manager left the resort. I was glad. I was so close to having a 'total burnout '. My colleague helped me to keep going. I'm very grateful to her. We've got new managers, now. They're a lovely couple. I'm happy at work again. 😊

Thank you for sharing this. I too have had a similar situation and was overwhelmingly sad and had no fight left in me
I left college recently and the shame is eating me alive! I just lay in bed all day in my parents' house and don't know what to do.
Very helpful
Glad it helped you in some way. Hope you are doing ok in your situation. Thanks for watching.
