My parents never abused me but they screwed me up all the same. I don't think there's much point in trying to guess whose pain is greatest. Your pain is significant because it's hurting you. No other reason is necessary.

I'm guessing you have some feelings of worthlessness, which is a very good reason for seeking therapy. That's another place you could start.
