Guilt usually comes from a mistake \u2014 I said something I didn\u2019t mean and hurt someone\u2019s feelings, and I\u2019m feeling guilty about it so I apologize. Guilt can cause self-reflection and positive change, which is a good thing.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>But shame doesn\u2019t tell you you made a mistake. It tells you that you ARE the mistake: &#8220;I didn\u2019t just get into debt \u2014 I\u2019m the type of person who gets into debt.&#8221; Shame can hinder our ability to change or take action.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Society\u2019s conditioned us to think in very black and white terms about what\u2019s good and what&#8217;s bad with money. But that mindset doesn\u2019t take into account the ups and downs of life or how easy it is to get into debt.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Now, losing the shame doesn\u2019t mean losing responsibility. You can still take ownership of your choices but you can also recognize that if you made mistakes, it doesn\u2019t make you a bad person.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>If you\u2019re feeling shame, defend yourself TO yourself. Repeat affirmations as much as you need to, to counter those negative internalized messages, like \u201cThe debt wasn\u2019t my fault; I was laid off and I had to use credit cards,\u201d or \u201cI\u2019ve made mistakes, but I never really did have a real financial education.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>And a few more tips here:&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Recognize you\u2019re not alone in this. There are millions of people in similar situations to yours.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Be honest to people you trust about what\u2019s going on because shame thrives in isolation.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Know that anyone judging you is just operating from their own black and white worldview.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Identify your own values when it comes to money. \u201cDo I value my creditors\u2019 bottom line? Or do I value MY family\u2019s financial security and ability to thrive in this world?\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Start working yourself out of that shame mindset. It\u2019s OK to feel regret about mistakes, but remember it\u2019s something you did, it&#8217;s not something you are, and let that drive you towards positive change.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Dr. Erika explains how guilt can be productive, while shame can lead to inaction and isolation.
