Dear noname:
I wasn’t aware of your post before last until a moment ago. If I was aware of it, I would have replied to it yesterday, shortly after you submitted that post (I was at the computer then). Sometimes a post doesn’t reflect under the list of Topics. I suppose that is what happened.
You don’t feel empathy for yourself because you believe you don’t deserve that. You blame yourself because you believe that you are guilty. You don’t believe a guilty person deserves empathy. It is that core belief.
It is depressing to be stuck in a guilty person. I was depressed myself throughout the years that I believed that I was guilty. I was very depressed. I will be glad to share with you about that core belief of mine, that guilty core belief. And I too didn’t believe therefore that I was worthy of empathy.
