How often do you cringe at past actions?

Just a light hearted musing really. Do you ever randomly cringe at things you've done in the past and how often would you do that? I think either I've done too many cringeworthy things or they pop into my mind too often. 😬.

Sadly yes. Also an expert on the "what if's"

My whole life up until 10 years ago when I finally sorted myself out is one long cringe.

I'm a very different person now, but I look back and just see that I was a complete nob.

This is usually a sign my mental health is getting bad and I need to sort out my medication

Yes Patroclus that makes sense. I will see if there's a connection to when I feel down/ anxious for me too.

Yes, it is usually around the way I behaved for a few years in my twenties (although I have regrets either side of that - just not as bad). I'm mid forties now. I think the older I get the more it bothers me.
