I have a hard time forgiving myself for things I have done while drunk too. Especially behaving in immature, embarrassing or mean ways, such as insulting people. (Like, who do I think I am??)

I'm not at the point in recovery to bring these things up and apologize either. Some would cause more damage and embarrassment to all involved, I would think.

Best to just focus on being a good person today. The past can't be changed. There is no use in dwelling on it. Try to be the loving good self that you are and that person will shine through. People will eventually see the real you and slowly forgive. If not, oh well. Can't win them all. I know this is all easier said than done. (I have to remind myself of all this daily as I cringe at work, in public, etc). Congrats on your sobriety!

Hugs.
