I don't share most of societies accepted morals.
I don't steal, but it's because I don't want to deal with the consequences of getting caught.
I don't inflict physical or mental pain on others, but it's because I don't have any reason to. They haven't done anything to me so I won't do anything to them.
I don't kill people, but again I have never had a reason too do so. And when I think about it, the only really negative side to it I can think of are the consequences of getting caught.
I have don't really care about other peoples problems. Unless they affect me. If it's a friend I will act like I care and help them if I can, but it's because I don't want to loose their friendship.
On the other hand I do have some things I care about. I love my pets more than anything. In fact animals are the only ones that gets me to truly feel empathy. And my father. I love my father fiercely. I dread the day that he dies.
I abandoned my mother with MS when she let me because she caused me nothing but pain and it had gotten to the point that I resented her for it. I do sometimes feel bad about it, but I would never go back.
My friends love me and consider me a great friend. And despite that I mostly fake empathy with them, I do like them all and I truly love one of them.
I have emotions, dulled as they are. I tear up when watching sad movies. I laugh when I see something funny. I seldom get angry and when I do it is never anything more than irritation, I have never felt rage. I have been infatuated with people, and I take rejection hard, but I have never felt romantic love. I am an atheist and identify myself as an existentialist.
I sleep soundly every night. I do not feel bad about the person I am. I am happy.
Am I a bad person? If you think I am, why? Your answer won't change me as I don't want/need to change. I am simply curious

lets see yea you are a bad person
yea your a good person
(being sarcastic here because this is a mental health website. that means there are people from all over the world with all kinds of mental illnesses, some of which would think what you posted was a bad person and some of what you posted a mentally ill person may believe is good depending upon what problems the person reading is having in their own mental illness and life)
now for reality no sarcasm ....
given that its my understanding that all posts on psych central are supposed to be of a supportive nature, to me that means not putting someone down, not telling someone they are a bad person because of what they posted...... you wont get me telling any member they are a bad person no matter if their post is of a positive nature or negative nature.
my suggestion would be instead of inviting people to make a judgement of you, decide for yourself whether you believe you are good or bad and if there is something about your self you would like to change or work on, you can contact a mental health treatment provider or other treatment provider that works with what ever changes in your life you would like to make, if there are any.
