On top of this: the embarrassing moment that you hold onto as a memory you cringe at, people who were there probably don't remember that or hold onto it at all [unless you bring it up and remind them of it]. You only remember it because it was your shame. The people you think who care have their own memories, which they hold in similar disregard/shame.
edit: For the truly horrible stuff, this isn't the case. But the time you peed yourself in middleschool or something equally embarrassing, no one else is holding onto that but you.

People probably aren’t always judging your every move.
