Question 1

sice yesterday am feeling giddy?

Accepted Answer

Giddiness : I'd say enjoy it while it lasts...If it was prolonged & was interfering with real life activities then to your physician.

Question 2

are glow-in-the-dark pajama safe?

Accepted Answer

Likely safe to wear: Glow-in-the-dark clothing is probably safe.  The material that glows is not radioactive, and does not emit any light unless it first absorbs some light.  Over time, the material fades as it emits out the light energy that it absorbed.  Since glow-in-the-dark pajamas are a novelty item, they need not be used if one has concerns about long-term or environmental effects of glow-in-the-dark materials.

Question 4

Not sure: From your comment i don't really know what kind of behavior you're describing, but it sounds like you're distressed about something you're doing.  You might want to discuss it in detail with a therapist, so that the problem can be resolved -- or at least so that it doesn't grow bigger.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Of course: Feelings of guilt when returning to work after having a baby are very normal.  But, remember that having a life outside of parenthood does not make you a bad parent.

Question 7

why might i feel guilty when someone wrongly accuses me?

Accepted Answer

Hmmmm . . . : Feeling guilty when wrongly accused?  I don't  know, but is it possible some part of you does feel responsible for some kind of wrongdoing?  It is easy to imagine feeling angry when wrongly accused, but guilt is usually what we feel when we think we have done a wrong action or hurt someone.  There is hope because we can make amends, & do differently.  Seeing a therapist may help you figure it out.

Question 8

how can i stop feeling so guilty for all that i ate today?

Accepted Answer

See below: Was today a step away from the norm? Do you always feel guilty if you eat? At this point, you already ate, when you feel calmer, go back and look at things that "provoked' you to eat: was it stress, or something else, were you at the party? Environmental cues might influence how and when we eat. If your eating habits become a problem, keep a food diary-it will help you keep track of triggers.

Question 9

Guilt because ???: The choice to parent is a complex one & we often focus on transient issues that have little importance in the overall scheme of life. Why the guilt ?

Question 10

why do i always feel guilty about not doing more for my family?

Accepted Answer

Unnecessary: You may be feeling guilt when it is not appropriate. Sometimes what feels like guilt is another unpleasant emotion stemming from comparing yourself to others who might be wealthier or better off in some way. It might help to make a point of being grateful for what's going well in your family. If you're already doing your best for yourself and your family you could be proud and not guilty.
