Good heavens, if what you're saying was true, then people who have cancer have no right to have it or whine because they have it!!!  You didn't WANT to have any illness -- you didn't ASK for it. None of us did.
These things happen out of nowhere, without our permission! We don't bring them on consciously. We don't TRY to get depressed, or bi-polar, or any of the other mental illnesses. I had a mental breakdown, and I sure didn't ask to have that happen to me.
We could have the happiest, most secure life and STILL have a mental illness. No one is immune to it, and it doesn't pick and choose who gets it.
PLEASE throw away that guilt - it doesn't belong to you. You have NOTHING to feel guilty about. NOTHING. You didn't "do this to yourself." None of us did, dearheart. God bless. Hugs, Lee
