This is my first post so. There’s no justified reason for me to talk about my background or how I came to the point where I am now talking about my worthless life to a bunch of people who I don’t know and who probably don’t care. I’m sure the things I post will be the same things everyone’s heard a million times. I’m not saying that it makes what anyone has been through any less significant or important or painful and damaging, but it kind of sucks that I’m just another depressed, screwed up teenager reaching out to people on the internet because there’s no one in my life that I care about enough to talk to, nor anyone in my life who cares. Isn’t it sad that so many people have been through so many horrible things? Sometimes I feel selfish for feeling sorry for myself, because someone else always has it worse, this I’ve learned. But does that make my experiences any less screwed up? Does that make me any less depressed, knowing that someone else has it worse? No it doesn’t.. Should it? I don’t know if I’m even making sense right now. Probably not. There really was no point to this, just like everything else in my life. Thankyou to anyone who wastes their time reading this, and I’m sorry that you did.

Im not sorry I read ur post.
Everyone in here cares. That’s why we are here. We are all troubled and we understand what you are going through and we don’t judge. I’m sure you have some good reasons to come at this point. Whenever you feel like sharing this website is here to do so.
Welcome to SP. 🙂
You make a good point; just because others have it worse doesn’t change the fact that you still feel awful too.
It reminds me of something I heard awhile back: “Telling someone they shouldn’t feel bad because others have it worse, is like telling someone they shouldn’t feel happy because others have it better.”
All feelings are valid, regardless of how they compare to anyone else’s situation.
Hi! Welcome friend I am new also, we care!
