Not only does mental illness affect cognitive abilities, so just plain old neurosis. I wasted much of my life. Sometimes I have difficulty dealing with the grief and anger. Usually I turn them against myself. My shrink reminds me that it really wasn't my fault--not the same as abdicating responsibility.
Looking at the past and where I am today can be painful, but I'm learning.
Short answer: no, you're not.
Sorry you're feeling bad.
MDD currently controlled. C-ptsd and comorbid health concerns. Chronic fatigue.
