I have been feeling extremely guilty all night, and like I am an awful person. For context, there was a walkout at my highschool for women’s rights and I didn’t do it. I obviously support a woman’s right to choose 100% but I was scared of walking out and being punished. I know I should have gone and done it and not just sat by when things happen, and I have been feeling guilty all afternoon and evening for not walking out. I know that I shouldn’t be making this about myself (I feel guilty for that.)
I was wondering if anyone else has ever felt like they are an awful person? I can’t stop thinking about it and thinking I am a bad person for just standing by.
