"So now that I am officially in the recovery period, how did you guys get over all those feelings guilt and shame? Especially if you have to actually see the people you embarassed yourself in front of. "

for me, and there were years and years of blackout embarrassing drunks, it was getting the courage to go to AA and start working the program. it helped me to look at the underlying issues alcohol was just a symptom of, learn who i was, change who i was, make amends for my past( that doesnt mean saying im sorry), and be free from guilt,worry, and shame.
