Into the book
When you feel discouraged because you think other people's mistakes are your own, it's better to spend the day faithfully, thinking only about the tasks you handled successfully.
And let's praise ourselves for finishing the day safely.

--- p.22

How's your daily life going these days? Listen to the signals your mind and body are sending you, to see if your head and heart are feeling unsettled.

--- p.25

Just naming the feelings I couldn't quite articulate can help me feel more in touch.

--- p.33

Just as clear skies and stormy, cloudy skies alternate on the same day, our emotions fluctuate just like the weather.

--- p.38

From now on, let's worry, make mistakes, and shed tears with all our might, unlike before.
You will definitely feel yourself changing.

--- p.54

If you can control your emotions appropriately, anger is not a bad emotion that should never be expressed.
Anger that resists injustice or seeks to protect oneself is righteous energy.

--- p.63

The easiest and most effective way to improve your self-esteem is to keep a 'praise journal'.
Write down three things you did well every day, even if they seem small and insignificant.

--- p.87-90

MBTI is a test of 'preferences' rather than a tool to diagnose abilities.
There is no better or worse tendency, each person is slightly different.

--- p.117

If your persona, your mask, is too strong, life becomes empty and it becomes difficult to find meaning in living.

--- p.160

Everyone has an inferiority complex.
That is, everyone lives with a story that is difficult to tell.

--- p.174

When you are sick, relying on crutches and not walking with your injured leg is a shortcut to getting better quickly.
The same goes for emotional pain.

--- p.219

I hope that we can slowly build precious memories and continue to walk together, drawing strength from those memories and the people we share them with.

--- p.202

Not only can the pain from interpersonal relationships be stressful, but work itself can also be stressful.

--- p.207

There is no special way to relieve stress.
Anything is okay as long as it is done 'in moderation'.

--- p.209

Always listen carefully to your own mind and state.
To safely send away harmful guests and wisely welcome welcome guests.

--- p.212

Only when we lean on each other so that neither our own nor the other's feelings are hurt will the moment come when we become whole.

--- p.222

Let's acknowledge that we need to praise something or someone to deserve praise, and believe that we have done something that is somewhat praiseworthy.

--- p.244

In most cases, the relationships you want are achieved by letting go of your power.
(…) If you just focus on the relationship you are in and maintain a relationship where you share things together, your feelings for each other will naturally deepen.

--- p.271

"It's hard to find a job, and even if you do, interpersonal relationships are a struggle."
“When things go wrong, it feels like it’s all my fault, and it’s painful.”
Encouragement and comfort for those in their 20s and 40s who suffer from self-reproach and depression.


Making a living is mostly hard work.
Competition follows competition, and after overcoming one hurdle, you must overcome the next hurdle that society expects.
In the process, we often get much more depression and guilt than reward or joy.
Dr. Heo Gyu-hyung, a psychiatrist who sees dozens of patients every day in the medical field, has recently been focusing on the emotions that many modern people are complaining about.
The concerns of our clients are not much different from those in our heads.
They are caught up in a situation where they feel stressed due to interpersonal relationships in the groups they belong to, such as school, academy, company, or part-time job, or when something goes wrong in their relationships, at home, or at work, and they feel like it's all their fault, and they can't shake off the feeling of distress.
At this time, many people do not accurately recognize what emotion is disturbing their minds.
For many who constantly blame themselves without knowing the cause, the author tells us how to look into our own hearts.

People are anxious due to the random stabbing incidents and accidents.
In a society filled with inferiority complex and anger
How to protect myself and take care of my heart


Recently, 'blind crimes' are occurring almost every day.
With stabbing incidents occurring one after another in the middle of the city in broad daylight and posts warning of crimes flooding the streets, many people are feeling anxious.
Criminals say:
“I’m angry because that person is not sincere.”, “I worked hard, but nothing worked out.”, “Society is the problem.” Modern society is gripped by fear because of those consumed by feelings of inferiority and anger.
Here, the author examines the various emotions that exist in the world one by one, and through 26 cases, suggests ways to express such emotions in a positive rather than negative way, and thus protect myself and take care of my heart.


At a time when comfort and stability are needed more than ever, through "Why Do I Keep Blaming Myself," you will be able to delicately organize your emotions one by one, which you were not aware of, and learn how to deal with them well. This book will become a good friend who comforts and consoles you in this difficult world.
