Hey, feel like that a lot.
Just like most of the people here I try to accept that I'm this way, and even if I don't want, I will not do things and feel bad. I try just to apologize and get the thing done if possible. Not much to do besides that.
Also when I'm on a low mood moment these feelings of guilt appear to be enormous, but eventually you get yourself up an they are manageable. Being burn down by that is pretty common for me, so I wish you some rest!
That's true, I've found that just like how there are moments when you feel less and more prepared to jump into cold water or step into a cold shower, there are moments when I feel less and more ready to face that guilt, so it is worth taking a moment to wait for the feeling to be right.
