Flip Ditcher I dont know what harm youre exactly talking about, but everyone deserves to say something. Your feelings arent any lesser value than anyone else. It doesnt matter what you’ve said or done. Even murderers have the chance to speak. That’s why court exists lol
You might struggle to give yourself credit or let the past go, but it is possible. It starts with the small things. Laughing about the past and making yourself feel better about the little mistakes is a good way to move on from it. Yknow, like the line “In two weeks, we’ll be laughing about this.” In the moment of things, I would say that is a harder thing to manage those emotions. I read a long time ago about children who punish themselves severely over any mistake. Mistakes dont define your character, and instead of beating yourself over them, see them as a valuable piece of information to do better in the future.
I hear you on a personal level with worrying about venting about stuff while others “vent about worse stuff.” But everyone struggles in all different ways, and that doesnt make your struggles any less of value to be heard. So don’t compare. It only harms you. If you keep thinking about who is worse off than you, you’ll never be able to acknowledge yourself and your problems for what they are. In reality, there are always worse off people around the world. But does that keep people here on this forum from complaining a bit? Absolutely not, and it shouldnt.
I appreciate you talking about how you feel, despite feeling so unworthy of it. You’re not going unheard (or unread, i suppose lol). I hope you can start valuing your feelings some day, because everyone deserves and needs it.
