Random Feelings of Guilt During Alcohol Withdrawals?

I recently decided that i wanted to stop drinking for awhile. I would typically have 2 or 3 drinks a night, maybe 6 nights a week.

I haven’t had anything to drink in a few days and there are some minor withdrawal symptoms, mostly fidgeting, a little bit of anxiety, and insomnia. However, i also keep getting strange flashes of guilt. I will be sitting there and then for about 10 seconds, i will feel really guilty and then it will pass. It isn’t about anything particular, it is just random and it goes away as quickly as it comes.

I have never actually heard of that as a withdrawal symptom but is it safe to assume that those feelings are also from the lack of alcohol in my system?
