No, scratch that. I know I am pathetic. So, I guess I do deserve pity.
What I don’t deserve is compassion.
Then why do I feel so insulted when I feel pitied?
And why do I feel a bit better (comforted) when I perceive empathy even when I know I don't deserve it?

Everyone deserves to be shown respect and and given support especially when they are having a rough time.
Please don't be so hard on yourself.
I'm glad you posted about it, though. It's something we all feel at one time or another...
We are often kinder to others than we are to ourselves.
Peace to you, Lbien
