You can’t undo the damage but you can try to make things right with those you hurt and with the mistakes you can’t fix, you atone for your past by not making the same mistakes again and also helping to keep others on the right path and helping them learn from your mistakes so they don’t have to make them and hurt others.

You need to get to a point of self forgiveness. Realize that YOU are not a bad person, but your ACTIONS were bad. I’m sure you had a reason for those actions that seemed justifying at the time. But now you know better.

Next, once you can acknowledge that you are not bad/flawed but your actions were bad, you can practice on changing your actions. Take your past as a learning experience and grow from it. Vow not to make the same mistakes again because you’re a better man today than you were yesterday.

If you want to apologize to someone you have hurt but can’t talk to, write them a letter. DONT SEND IT. But write out your thoughts. Write out your reasons. Write out your apology. This is more to help you with the self-forgiveness piece. Heck, you can write a letter to yourself is that’s helpful.

Acts of service helps as well. Give back to the world and the people in it. Help a friend or family member out, go volunteering, donate to a shelter, etc. Look at it this way: I have caused hurt in the past, so I will dedicate some of my future to giving back some good. Helping people and being altruistic helps us feel good as well.

Hope that helps!

Ask forgiveness knowing you may never be forgiven. Forgive and learn to love yourself. This is the way.

Did you actually harm anyone or just have shitty beliefs?

Well, what did you learn along the way? You got into the red pill for a reason. Think of what it is that got you into this mess, value the lessons you learned, where you went wrong and move on.
