Do you ever have problems letting go of something emotionally when you KNOW mentally it's not your fault and what you did was not something you would have ever done knowingly? (basically having issues forgiving yourself even though everyone else has)
My older daughter's cat crawled in the dryer on Mother's day and I didn't know she was in there and I basically killed her. I feel so awful still. I have only the past couple days stopped crying about it. I know I would never have done anything to the cat on purpose. I would never hurt my daughter on purpose. My daughter forgave me that day. I just can't seem to.
I don't know how to get myself to get over this. I can't get over hurting her. I can't get over killing this animal. I know I didn't mean to, but somehow that doesn't make it go away.
