I've always been extremely grateful for them, but also extremely guilty about getting them. I have always felt like I don't deserve them, but I would take them and try to be better. Lately, this hasn't been the case. I have been throwing them away, not because I'm ungrateful but because I feel like taking them is wasting everyone's time and I am even more undeserving than before. I also think that I am trying to sabotage myself or something. I guess I feel like I am trying to push myself over the edge finally or something... Has anyone else felt this way?
I know exactly what you mean, it's actually one of the reasons I was contemplating suicide a few weeks ago. There are so many things I don't deserve, but yet I get them anyway.
