I want to apologize for responding so late, Anon, but I had to go buy things as I'm tasked with making Thanksgiving dinner again this year. I truly want to thank you for saying that, for taking the time to say that I deserve things and I understand, I really do, but I'm too used to making myself be there for people so that when I'm like this, I don't feel right in asking for anything because even if no one should compare what they're going through to what other people are going through, I always feel like this is nothing; that there are so many people I know and don't know who are going through so much worse things and yet they keep moving forward or that they need the support more.
I always feel ugly, greedy and selfish when I confess in needing something or someone or being reassured because I never feel like I deserve it. I feel better when I can be there for people, when I can help someone see how wonderful they are despite how ugly they think they are because no one is ugly no matter how many visible or invisible scars they carry and I'm just....
I'm just someone who's just sad because I don't know what to do; because I'm constantly missing someone; because I know what I'm missing or lacking but knowing doesn't do anything; because I've become so insecure and weak that it tires people out to have to reassure me constantly even though I'm not like this, didn't become like this by choice; because I constantly remember what was told to me and even though I try to hold onto words, I still remember the ones spoken before and it makes me feel worse because I can't get my meaning across; because I'm really selfish and can't be happy and thankful and blessed with all the love and support and kindness I keep receving from my friends when I'm like this and just continue to be sad, but I can't lie on what I think and feel even though words like these touch me so much that I teared up when I first read your message.
Thank you to you and to everyone I know and don't know who have taken the time to try and comfort me and I do apologize that I can't be happy and be satisfied in that much. I wish I could be strong enough to make myself happy until I am happy so that I can actually get things done and move out of this, but I can't and even if I shouldn't feel it, I just do feel selfish and ugly and greedy in wanting someone to understand and support me because I was never there when they needed it and have only ever proven to be someone untrustworthy in anything and really, it's all my fault.
I'm sorry for the length of tihs response and for being emotional, but I really do thank you so much.
