[quote=Anonymous]Do not apologize for your emotions. I've had a lot of therapy (prophylactic and otherwise), and the number one thing my therapist tells me is to not "double wound" myself. If you have an emotion, don't critique yourself for having the emotion or wish it away. It's there, and that's ok. It's ok to feel like this. We're all mourning parts of our previous lives. And it's completely valid to feel sad about opportunities you're missing WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY recognizing that you generally are fortunate. Emotions are complicated. Please ignore the one major invalidating post. I honestly think people blow off steam by posting such content, which is a bit sad, but they probably don't know any better. [/quote]
