Exactly this. Everyone is unique in what they are equipped to handle, mentally and physically. I think people forget this too often.Who is to say one person's pain is greater than another?
SameYes and no.
Yes: Objectively I have much to be thankful for [physical health; housing; my partner]. Compared with people with terminal illness, chronic pain, the homeless, the loveless, my life is good...BUT
No: subjectively I feel hopeless and trapped. Worst of all I feel empty.
Yes, but then again if I continued to live (at least the way I do now) I'd feel even guiltier, soAs title says.
Same!!I feel horrible when I read the news. But I feel horrible as well stumbling around my house nearly unable to take care of anything because of my depression. Sometimes I like to think if I'm gone, I won't be using up resources that other people can have.
