It serves no positive purpose to identify with the feeling of guilt. You can observe it and take action without identifying with it. It helps no one to make yourself suffer. You can observe it for what it is and let it go. You don't have to make yourself feel it because "you deserve it". No one said bottle it up, but you can observe it for what it is and realize it only does you disservice to wallow in it and let it go.
