I know exactly how you're feeling, love. I've had a good life, too. My dad has a great job, my family loves me, and I'm able to do a lot of the things I like. I know that I feel selfish a lot, for feeling the way I do when there are people going through worse situations and aren't depressed, self harming, or have any of my other issues.

What we need to realize, though, is that everyone hurts. Everyone experiences pain, and we all deal with it our own way. Pain is pain, no matter how it happened or why it did. Self harm isn't a healthy way to deal with things, but it's how we cope.

Congratulations on making it as far as you did without giving in! That's always an achievement. Humans are bound to mess some things up, though. Stay strong. I know you can get back on the right track!
Thanks for this!
