Shame

I think shame is natural and inevitable, it seems like people treat it as something to be disdained, or else theyre carried off and take it too seriously. If you do something morally "wrong" and feel like shit over it, thats a dose of shame which helps us to avoid doing these things again.
Im all for embracing anger, pain and shame within reasonable limits, this is how we learn. Everyone feels shame, no in is perfect in their actions, but I get the impression that many people suppress this feeling, ashamed of their shame, proud.
What is your greatest shame?

I have no idea how to emotionally carry people. It's a bit of embarrassment. I do try to pretend well but I believe I fail.

I have learned a number of "do's and don't's" from shame. I definitely have felt real shame and will probably feel more shame in the future, as will everyone else alive. I think if you don't feel an ounce of shame in your entire life then you must be assburgerd af

Ive neglected my women and friendships at times by being calloused, and when I was much younger I did some thieving
There are too many small regrets to count, so I dont think about it much, but I try to be generous now with time, goods and affection

What's shame?
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

I'm ashamed of the shroomery.
Some of the most powerful mind altering plants and there are lot's of idiots that claim to be enlightened thru them.
I'm not so sure how there are Republicans and shroomerites.

Shame manifests in many ways. Usually an extreme emotion but it could be flat emotion.
Never can tell with some people. Usually if you would feel shame, it's safe to project that analysis.

It can be overwhelming in its own way, but its one of the more shallow emotions in my experience, anger, fear and ecstasy can literally make me blind, forget who I am, shake... maybe I just havent fucked up bad enough but shame has never reached same level.

Probably because of unrealized and not integrating shame. So it boils over into other emotions.

I dont think so, nothing Ive done would merit a level of shame to compete with an emotion like rage, I can only really speculate that shame has that potential. On the other hand, one can get set off with anger in a traffic jam for basically no reason but minor inconveniences piled together, so maybe one shouldnt need that much stimulation to test an equivilant feeling of shame...
Do people feel different levels of different emotions? I would compare anger, lamentation and happiness as relatively even in potency. Maybe someone else doesnt experience the same balance

What I mean is instead of experiencing shame people are wired to experience other emotions. Not that any one emotion is healthy as an option. But shame might be more survivable than rage in our modern world. Then again anger might be better than shame.

Oh yeah I may agree, whether this is cultural conditioning or the natural balance is another question altogether.
I do wonder how others feel though, if other might be more or less affected by certain emotions, and how we develop into our different emotional perceptions... culture, genetics, experience, age, gender, maybe even race

When i was schizophrenic i came up with the little saying "ALL I FEEL IS SHAME" it meant a lot at the time

If you were really schizophrenic you would still be.
Perhaps you were psychotic?
I look forward to a day when our genetics are our diagnosis.

There's a little of both in my views, but I do spend far more time trying to work away from negative emotions than finding any immediate use for them

Currently symptoms are used for diagnosis. I can see that this works but it also a lot of the time is incorrect. It's the old and easy way of doing things. People spend a lot of years and money fitting the diagnosis on the disease.

Well i was diagnosed with schizophrenia twice but each time i recovered fully from it so it really was just a temporary psychosis caused by excessive BHO use

I think that there are underlying issues if something as harmless as BHO were to cause a psychotic break.
Meth maybe, spice sure, but BHO ain't that much of a thang.

I notice it a lot in mainstream media, society, and social narratives.
In society, you can't slut or fat shame. We can however say things like "fuck you WHITE AMERICA," we can demonize men, use shaming language, and manipulation to contrive the results we want. Its pretty fucking gross but, if you can pick up on the subtleties, you can catch it and out somebody.

I agree, the worst nut jobs I have seen thought drugs were bad, I tend to not trust people that don't use, or haven't used something before, it's a flaw of mine.
Regarding the topic of this thread, I think people can feel guilt for having treated someone poorly, but I think shame is much deeper. I think people kill themselves for feeling shame, but a guilty person can be redeemed if they're willing to do so, does that make sense? Shame always seemed like such a harsh word.

You can make that distinction, but ive been using the words interchangeably. Like anger and rage, technically theyre synonymous

I view anger and rage as two totally different things, if I am angry I would be in control of how I was feeling, if I was in a rage then I would be out of control.

I honestly think you have to be either exteemely emotionally repressed or psychopathic not to feel shame at some point or another, I only entertain the prospect of someone being truly psychopathic as a theoretical, so repression is my assumption. As for sannyasins, Im not a believer, repression again.
Do you entertain the idea that you could be repressing feeling of shame, or do you reject the idea outright? I think it is healthy to reflect on the possibility, everyone is repressed to some degree imo, we're a constantly shifting pool of emotion and perfection is impossible as tensions arise spontaneously here or there, with or without reason.

What does an angel like me have to be ashamed of? Certainly not my body. My words? My actions? I'm always motivated by my dream of universal love and empathy. I wasn't always enlightened, but I don't feel ashamed of my unenlightened self. I was never a bad person. I just couldn't always see what I see now, because I hadn't had my divine revelations yet. I've made plenty of mistakes in my life, but I've always tried my best, so why should I be ashamed of them?
As far as what society says I should be ashamed of myself for, I give it the big "fuck you". Having gone long periods of time unemployed, for example; society says it's shameful to claim benefits but I certainly had no qualms about doing it, I even boasted about my lifestyle on the shroomery. And now that I'm employed, I'm not ashamed to be working for the man; I merely realized that in order to help the Illuminati achieve the NWO I should be contributing to the economic system, so I decided to look for a job. People might still think it's shameful that I'm working at home, naked on my bed smoking weed while others are stuck in fast food kitchens and cleaning toilets, but basically I'm just reaping the rewards of having a marketable skill. People might think it's shameful that I quit university after 1 month; I think it's funny.
So you see, not being concerned about what people think of me and having faith in my own moral compass means I don't have to feel shame. It's not psychopathic or repressed, but rather enlightened.
